Class Voice for Music Theatre (151-0-21)
Instructors
Sarah Ann Smith
Meeting Info
Wirtz Center SOUTH: Thurs 11:00AM - 12:50PM
Overview of class
Group instruction in vocal musical theatre technique and repertoire. You will sing as a group or individually in every class. The primary course objective is to improve your individual instrument and approach to singing, so that you can more fully express yourself as a singing artist. Class will consist of a group vocalization, technical exercises, and individual repertoire work. All students will sing warm-ups and exercises at the beginning of every class. I will discuss one new aspect of singing technique during these warm-ups. We will then have 10-12-minute individual lessons where I will give specific feedback on a roughly one-minute cut (a section of a song), as well as hearing feedback from the rest of the class. Solid preparation outside of class is a must, as there is not time to learn the music during these sessions.
