Singers will learn vocal technique, stagecraft, score preparation/study, repertoire, and some foreign language. This classical singing program will touch on American Art Song, German Lieder, Italian Arias, and some Musical Theater. Our expert faculty will lead voice lessons, piano coachings, and seminars on all aspects of preparing a song. The singers will show their artistic growth in a final showcase performance at the week’s end.
