Singing: The Serious Fun of Skill Building
A very interactive workshop that unpacks the many different skills at play when we come together to sing as a group. It’s never too late to sing better.
Topics include:
- Alignment – where most vocal problems have their origin
- Tension – don’t let it take a terrible toll on your tone
- Your voice’s motor: the breathing mechanism
- Resonance – developing a rich, full sound
- Developing a unit sound
