The Choir 101 workshop series is designed for beginner and intermediate adult choristers wanting to develop their ability to sight read, better understand music theory, and improve their vocal technique. For 2011, three workshops will be offered.
CHOIR 101 | This 3.5 hour workshop is designed for novice choristers will limited music backgrounds. The basics of sight singing and theory will be addressed as will the fundamentals of vocal technique. The goal is to equip choristers through participatory learning with skills which can be applied in their weekly choir rehearsals. For first-time choristers, choristers returning to singing after a few years off, or choristers who have sung for several years but want to galvanize musical and vocal concepts, this course is aimed at preparing you for a gratifying year of choral singing.
CHOIR 201 | This 3 hour workshop is for choristers with some experience. The goal is to equip choristers with techniques for more difficult sight reading and explore important concepts pertaining to music theory. Although there is no vocal component in this workshop, the focus will be on participatory learning, so come ready to sing!
CHOIR 202 | This is a 3 hour voice workshop aimed at choristers who have sung in a choir for at least one year. It will review vocal fundamentals including posture, breathing, and tone production.
