Who is the course for?

The course is open to young musicians between the ages of 10 and 14 who enjoy music and singing. You don't need to be able to read music, you just need to be keen to use your voice!

The music we're performing is accessible to all, in terms of both vocal range and ability.

The Operetta is a 'choral' rather than a 'theatrical' work, and the emphasis of the course will be on developing and exploring the ways in which the voice can be used to portray dramatic events.
