Vocal Rockers: Modern Pop Choir
Ages 8-12
Prerequisite: Vocal Roots Benchmark or Instructor recommendation
In this intermediate vocal class, we'll be tackling modern pop hits and learning how to blend our voices to create amazing harmonies. Whether you're comfortable with a solo moment or prefer the power of the group, you'll have opportunities to sing alone or together. We'll also build on and practice the basic techniques you learned in Vocal Roots.Get ready to master your breathing, nail those high notes, conquer tricky rhythmic changes, and deepen your understanding of basic music theory. It's all about having fun while growing as a singer!
