Workshops
Bespoke workshops offer a deeper dive into a range of singing and choir aspects, from beginner to advanced level. If you’re interested, check availability below, or email me if there is someone/something you think would be a good workshop idea.
POP CHOIR MASTERCLASS
The POP CHOIR MASTERCLASS is a deep dive into choir singing for choristers and choir leaders, inspired by The Intelligent Choir method which aims to increase creativity, reflection, interaction and playfulness within choirs. It will be an engaging, accessible and fun session for everyone to enjoy! The day will be led by Leanne Sedin, whose unique and creative approach to choir leadership has been shaped by her training at Denmark’s RAMA Vocal Centre.
The masterclass will include:
* lots of fun singing games and songs
* work on rhythm and groove
* solfa training
* circle singing and vocal painting (VOPA)
