Getting The House In Order: Training Functional Register For CCM
Thursday 10th November 2022, 5:00 PM - 7:00 PM (London Time)
In a functional approach to voice, transitioning seamlessly between the bottom and the top often requires isolation work to be done on the basic registers (a.k.a chest and falsetto).
When teachers can assess how functional the basic registers are, they can create plans to strengthen their coordination before they try to connect them.
In this workshop, Chris will share how he assesses and trains the basic registers to benefit the voice as a whole.
The added benefit is that the passaggio is also much easier to fathom when all registers are functional and contributing!

Certificate in Coaching Emotional Vocal Expression
Louisa Morgan
Understanding emotions is crucial for coaching performers towards more authentic and compelling performances. However, working with emotions can be challenging, both physiologically and mentally.

Teaching Children in Group Voice Settings: Structure, Pedagogy, and Practice!
Dana Lentini
Join Dana Lentini as she explores practical and pedagogical strategies for designing and teaching successful group singing classes for children. Drawing on principles of pediatric vocal pedagogy and classroom teaching practice, participants will learn how to structure classes that balance vocal development, musicianship, and creative engagement. Particular attention will be given to a five-stage teaching framework that progresses from mind–body awareness and breath coordination through musicianship, vocal technique, and repertoire study.
