Musical Theatre Singing Pedagogy: A Framework for Teaching Musical Theatre Singers

Tuesday 14th October 2025, 5:00 PM - 7:00 PM (London Time)

This class will look at the pedagogy of teaching musical theatre singing. We will begin by exploring the flexibility needed for musical theatre singing through definitions, listening exercises, and some historical context. We will then move into a framework for teaching musical theatre singers from beginners to more advanced performers including building exercises and assigning repertoire. We will also look at the needs of musical theatre singers that might differ from other genres, such as the eight show a week performance schedule, the important of acting, and physical demands, such as dancing while singing.

The Neuroscience of Speech and Song

Dr Michel Belyk

The Neuroscience of Speech and Song offers an engaging and accessible introduction to the fascinating interface between the brain and some of the things that we use it for. This course is designed to unravel the complex processes underlying how we speak and sing, using simple and accessible language. This course will start from basics and assume very little prior knowledge. We will cover the basic structure of the brain and how it works in general, then narrow in on specific processes that are relevant to speech and song.
