Learning outcomes of the course unit

The course aim is not instruction in singing technique but the mastery of various genre songs and styles in a dramatic manner, that is, natural voice and intonation.

Mode of study

Instruction is done by contact (individual lesson hours).

Prerequisites and co-requisites

To register for this course the student must have credit for the previous semester (201ZPE5).

Course contents

The course aim is not the instruction of singing technique - required is at least a basic understanding and mastery in singing classes in previous study-years or very obvious talent and originality in singing.

Instruction is only individual. Other students may attend as observers. The instructor may communication lessons also to them. Singing into a microphone accompanyied by the vocal coach.

With the help of copious amounts of examples and exercises (and assignments), in a dialog with the professor, the student gradually improves vocal interpretation and investigates for the student the most appropriate of the many manners of how to interpret the selected song.

The study literature may be in one or across many genres (Chanson, pop,rock, folk, blues,swing, musical and others). The selection of songs appropriate for instruction depends to a significant extent on the students selection and their natural talent.

During instruction concepts such as tremors, relaxation on stage, presentation of one's spoken word and other elements of the students stage identity in a general sense are addressed.

Working with the student's own songs, as with their singing ability to accompany themself (guitar, piano) or recording a song in studio form is beyond the standard instruction and is used for only the most talented students.
