Target group and prerequisite skills

This course is for you who are 18 years old and up and you might already have some experience in singing or not - for this five day summer course no previous singing courses/lessons are needed, enthusiasm for singing is enough. In the teaching, each student's individual starting point and interests are taken into account. A carefree and open-minded attitude is warmly welcomed.

Course content

We sing in the field of popular music and during the course we will discover basic tools of singing through group instruction: healthy use of voice, use of support and breathing, use of voice registers and phrasing in different music styles. Please, note that the actual course content depends a lot on the group’s skills and the course instructor chooses the songs together with the group accordingly. It is advisable to talk with the course leader about any special wishes you have concerning the course.

To get the most out of the course, individual work outside the class is highly recommended.

Goal

The goal of the course is to understand how the voice works and have fun with it singing in a safe group environment.

Tip

Singing in front of others may make you nervous at first, but we will work on that as well. Our teachers are good and let everyone develop at their own pace.

Schedule

The course is scheduled for June Tuesday 3, Thursday 5 , Tuesday 10, Thursday 12, Tuesday 17 and Wednesday 18.
