OSHER 386 - Sing Freely! Vocal Play and Harmony

Free that unique voice of yours! Have you ever wondered "How does that singer make a certain kind of sound?" Are you longing to learn HOW to sing a harmony part? Come explore vocal harmony, tone, and vocal ornamentation. We will keep our brains sharp and our hearts light, while having fun singing together--virtually! You will learn short, wonderfully novel songs (novel as in "new," a song you've never heard on the radio) and you will learn harmony parts for each song. MP3 audio files will be provided so that you can have access to the songs and parts for your own reference. In addition, we will explore vocal resonance (chest voice, head voice, mixed voice, etc.) as well as vocal decoration and play (trills, sliding, and "flipping" the voice). What have you got to lose? You'll be able to do all of this from the privacy of your own space. This class is a great way to keep learning while making new discoveries with your voice. No previous experience necessary.
