“The Chandler Curriculum for Training Pop Singers” – a deeper dive
Thursday 25th July 2024, 5:00 PM - 7:00 PM (London Time)
The Chandler Curriculum for Training Pop Singers was published as an A2-size poster by Compton in 2022 and is a popular resource worldwide.
The content was devised by reverse engineering what pop singers needed to be able to do and know about to be effective in the music industry. It’s based on observations from the author’s many years of high-level performing & teaching experience.
The poster, in its tabulated, “bullet point” format, is designed to be a convenient tool for both teacher and student as a quick reference and summary of the main “hit points” for planning and structuring content in a singing lesson or even for use in designing courses in schools, colleges or universities.
Adhering to the curriculum, key areas explored in this session will include posture, breathing & support, tone & registration, diction, rhythm, vibrato, pitch, harmony, range, agility, musicianship, interpretation, performance, amplification & technology and vocal health as they apply specifically to the CCM singer.
