Singing Group
Singing Group is an exciting and inclusive singing group specifically designed for children between the ages of 8 and 11. The class provides a supportive and engaging environment where young singers can explore their vocal talents, develop musical skills, and experience the joy of singing together.
​
The class focuses on building a strong foundation in vocal technique, musicality, and performance skills. Through a variety of fun and interactive activities, children learn to use their voices effectively, develop breath control, improve pitch accuracy, and expand their vocal range.
​
Singing Group typically includes vocal warm-ups, where children engage in exercises to improve vocal strength, flexibility, and control. They learn about proper posture, breathing techniques, and vocal resonance. These warm-ups help prepare their voices for the singing repertoire and ensure healthy vocal production.
​
Children explore a diverse range of musical genres, including pop, musical theatre, folk, and traditional songs. They learn songs as a group, focusing on harmony, blend, and vocal expression. The repertoire may include both familiar songs and new pieces, providing opportunities for children to discover different musical styles and expand their musical horizons.
