Voice-Movement Skills And The Dimension Of PLAY!

Thursday 2nd February 2023, 5:00 PM - 7:00 PM (London Time)

This workshop explores the voice-movement relationship in breath management, the vocal tract, voice qualities, pitch range, articulation and phrasing (singing and speaking), and extended voice use.

Then participants are invited to “physicalize” a spoken or sung text—playfully allowing the body to lead—before doing a bit of the text in performance mode.

Questions, requests and comments are welcome, and muting is not required!

Please dress comfortably and have floor space available for movement and exercise.

Music Theory Fundamentals for Voice Pedagogues

Dr David Cane

Voice pedagogy has advanced significantly in the last decades in relation to knowledge of the vocal apparatus (anatomy and mechanics), acoustics, and performance psychology (to name just a few subfields) – this is a wonderful thing! Nonetheless, musicianship and the foundations of music theory are still relevant to the teaching and coaching of singers and this course aims to empower voice teachers and coaches with skills to support the fundamental musicianship development of their students.
