Whatever your musical background, if you’re 16 or over you can apply to take part in our fifth annual vocal workout.
This weekend aims to improve your ‘hard’ musical skills — rhythm, pitch, ensemble singing and more — through creative work together. You’ll have a chance to explore music theatre, gospel, classical and jazz singing, as well as the opportunity to perform in a masterclass.
The weekend will be run by voice expert Mary King (as seen on Channel 4’s Musicality and Operatunity) and supported by other top vocal professionals.
The cost is £100 for the weekend. Bursaries will be available.
