This course is designed to help musical theater singers navigate the process of analyzing and performing Broadway songs. We will cover topics from the foundations of healthy and proper singing, to nuancing - or mapping out - a song. During class, you will be given ample opportunities to interact with the clinician, present a song, and practice critiquing performances. By the end of the course, you will feel prepared for and comfortable with presenting a polished song for a show, audition, or casual performance. This is a great course for singers of all experience levels to polish their skills and learn new techniques.
