Description
Maximize the first moments of rehearsal by designing choral warm-ups that increase retention and connection with the music, resulting in improved student engagement. In this interactive session, we’ll learn to sing smarter by developing vocal exercises that reinforce concepts in the repertoire, offering a more diversified approach to pedagogy and technique. Activities are suited for all ages and abilities and participants will have an opportunity to practice their skills together.
