Application of Acoustic Vocal Pedagogy for CCM Singing
Thursday 15th July 2021, 5:00 PM - 7:00 PM (London Time)
High-frequency energy in the singing voice is something that we can hear and that we should notice.
In this short course, participants will learn how to distinguish low and high-frequency energy in the singing voice, discern the effect that high-frequency energy has on the sound we hear, and enhance resonance strategies for singing with speech sounds and novel uses of white noise.
When we are aware of high-frequency energy in the sound of the voice, we can use this to guide our students and our own singing to the desired outcomes.

Learning together: group singing and choral pedagogy
Dr David Cane
The benefits of group singing are well documented and well known. Singing together can foster a sense of social connection and community as well enhancing wellbeing and mood. However, group singing is not only a shared cultural and artistic experience, but can also be a powerful site of learning. While many of the developments in voice pedagogy have tended to centre around the one-to-one model of teaching, this course with Dr David Cane explores the pedagogical (and potentially the political) potential of teaching and learning to sing collectively.
