[Meg Kelly]

*TEEN Vocal classes (4 spots left)*

Sundays Feb 1,8 March 8,15

Ages: 13-18. Time: 1-3pm Place: Saratoga Senior Center Fee:$125

Course Description: Finding a song well suited to an individual personality
and skill set and perfecting the overall presentation of that song. Not
every song works well for every performer. When a performer finds the right
song and the right place in his/her vocal range to sing that song, it may
carry him/her through years of auditions. Many successful professional
performers have auditioned with the same song(s) through an entire career.
If this workshop does not find that song for you, it gives you the skills
to find that song for yourself.

This class meets in four sessions. There will be assignments that must be
completed in order to participate.

*These classes are a great addition to your current lessons, hearing new
ideas and concepts will enhance your vocal ability.*

Goals:  Learning how to analyze a song lyric

             Making the lyric emotionally your own

             Finding the best part of your singing voice to express that
emotion

             Learning ways to become comfortable with a performance
