Exercises to Song Work: Making the Transition

Thursday 23rd May 2024, 5:00 PM - 7:00 PM (London Time)

Sometimes the success we find in an exercise doesn't transfer to the song.

So how does one ‘bridge the gap’ between exercises and song work?

After the success of last year's 'Essential Elements For Voice Teaching Success' course, this workshop will discuss how to create exercises designed for songs, how to overcome various challenges when incorporating technique into song work, and the keys to creating inspiring and practical lessons for both you and your student.

(R)evolutionary Voice Training: harnessing human instinct to accelerate vocal transformation!

Maddie Tarbox

Human beings and our vertebrate ancestors have been communicating via vocalization for millions of years – those sounds did not start as complex language, but as animal mimicry, acoustic cuing, and emotional primal sounds. Join Maddie Tarbox for this two hour session as she unpicks the repertoire of instinctive shortcuts that can lower cognitive load and accelerate vocal change!

Low Male Voices (LMVs): Development, Technique, and Repertoire

Dr Dann Mitton

Join Dr Dann Mitton for this two hour workshop where he explores the Development, Techniques, and Repertoire favoured for Low Male Voices (LMVs). Typically labelled as 'Bass' and 'Baritone', these classifications are used in classical music, choral settings, and vocal pedagogy to help determine suitable repertoire and vocal roles. In contemporary music, the distinctions are less rigid but still useful for understanding vocal range and timbre.
