It gives us great pleasure to announce that current MA Voice Pedagogy student Emily DenBleyker presented a paper at the recent NATS India Chapter Online Conference ’Strength in Diversity: Singing for All’ on 14th and 15th October 2023.
Emily’s presentation paper – Lessons from group singing research: a three-pronged approach for creating a supportive learning environment for adult beginning singers in the private voice studio – is based on the research she carried out for her Module 1 paper during her MA degree course. The paper examines current group singing research while proposing a fresh approach to support adult beginning singers (ABS) in the private studio and empower teachers to better meet the needs of singers of all levels.
Congratulations, Emily!
