This course is suitable for very advanced singing students (Grade 8 and beyond) or professionals at the early stages of their development, who wish to advance their solo performance skills in classical repertoire, particularly in the context of recitals & auditions, and with a focus on operatic arias – although other classical solo repertoire such as concert songs and oratorio are welcome. The course is led by vocal coach Panaretos Kyriatzidis with the support of the Head of Opera at Morley College, Michalis Angelakis.
The course takes the form of weekly masterclasses. You are invited to bring along your chosen repertoire of solo arias, songs or oratorio pieces, in consultation with the tutor. At the beginning of each session, the tutor allocates individual timeslots for everyone present. During these sessions, you are asked to perform your chosen repertoire with the tutor accompanying and coaching from the piano. Various elements may be explored including interpretation of the score, pronunciation of the text technical aspects etc. The rest of the group participates in peer feedback, questions and answers, and occasional group exercises. In order to ensure you make the best possible progress on your course, you will have regular constructive and supportive feedback from your tutor, alongside advice on further repertoire. There is an informal performance and final feedback session at the end of the term, and a simple video-recording will be made available for your personal use.
This course is only suitable for very advanced singers, who are of at least Grade 8 or equivalent standard in singing. Approval is needed to enrol on this course, and you may be asked to come in for an audition. If you wish to be considered, please contact the music department at ann.cowling@morleycollege.ac.uk
