The Vocal Performance course combines the art of singing with elements of stage performance and collaboration. Storytelling through expressive singing, stage presence, body language and choreography is emphasized, in addition to stage awareness and collaborative techniques. Our founders and faculty will be able to leverage their experience working on songs such as Suit & Tie (Justin Timberlake), That's What I Like (Bruno Mars), and Free Fall (Beyoncé) to explain concepts from the course. Students are exposed to stage equipment, including microphones, backline and leading a band while learning necessary concepts, terminology and techniques for vocal performance in a modern environment.
Upon completion of this course, students will be able to:
- Engage the audience with powerful storytelling techniques
- Develop and implement choreography best practices
- Collaborate with accompanists, bands and other singers
- Identify the different types of stage microphones
- Produce an engaging stage performance utilizing additional performers
