Group Sing Summer Session

New to our list of musical ventures: Group Singing!

I'm very excited about this, and have been planning it for quite some time now. There are many things I love about singing in a group. For those who are a bit shy, it helps them feel less conspicuous, and will likely sing out a bit more. It's also a good stepping stone to singing solo. Group singing affords fun things like rounds and harmonies. Also, it allows the singer to develop the ear in a different way; to learn to listen to the other voices and blend.

Our lessons are divided into 6-week sessions. Each session has a theme (musical genre, holidays, seasons, cultures, musicals, popular.) In addition to learning pitch, rhythm, intonation, and other musical elements, we will learn songs that reflect our theme. At the end of the 6-week session, we will hold a concert for friends and family.

I'm looking forward to a great summer, and wish you all the same!


Happy Singing!
