Overview
This unit focuses on synthesising the parts of information from Module One into a whole. It comprises identifying and working with more complex vocal sets, including breath use and range work; identifying targets in vocal training and performance practice; exploring differences in style requirements and consonant management in complex vocal tasks such as singing and energised speech.

This course will enable you to differentiate between different vocal styles in music e.g. classical, musical theatre, jazz and pop, and equip you with knowledge about spoken voice use in different environments e.g. theatre, presentation skills, teaching, radio work, health in everyday voice use. The course will be led by Gillyanne Kayes and Jeremy Fisher.
