Would you like to try out some of your singing or playing ideas in a supportive environment? Would you like to perform a short piece and receive immediate feedback on how you can improve how you delivered it? Would a one to one session where you can bring a specific question about your voice or playing be of help to you?
On the 9th November, we will be having a workshop for females to help you improve your playing and singing music, but not only that: you will also have the opportunity to perform a short piece and receive immediate feedback from our supportive and experienced panel on how you can enhance your performance. Also, you can book a one to one clinic to help you improve a specific area of your voice or playing.
The day will cover:
- 5 tips for owning the stage.
