These classes are conducted by the teacher (and guest coaches and teachers) and are intended to be true learning experiences where performance techniques are further developed in a relaxed atmosphere.
Public recitals are held as the level of student achievement and performance dictates.
Students are encouraged to sing in choral groups and small ensembles to further develop musical and listening skills. Studio assistance is provided.
Students are encouraged to enter competitions as readiness is achieved and if the student so desires.
