Students work to bring characters to life through complete physical, vocal and emotional transformation. Performance style will be introduced, and strong musicianship and vocal technique will continue to be integrated. Emphasis will be placed on working within a supportive ensemble aesthetic, developing a language of constructive feedback and participating in the growth of classmates’ work.
