This course is aimed at intermediate level singers in classical and light classical styles (and singers returning after a long break) who can already sing confidently with piano accompaniment but who feel that they need a focus on technical exercises to boost their singing and re-energise their practice sessions. On this short course you will spend focused time working on your technique to help you to make better use of your instrument. Through exercises (physical and vocal), you will improve your sound and feel more confident with your singing.
