The CCM Vocal Pedagogy Institute
Dates for the upcoming 2020 CCM Institute July 11-31, 2020
​
Due to the pandemic, we will be joining NATS and PAVA in moving our Institute ONLINE
The institute experience relies on the collective energy and wisdom of everyone in attendance. We have thought long and hard about the situation and have decided that there is no possible way to replicate that experience.
So instead, we have decided to respond to many years of requests for putting special topics workshops online.
-
This summer, we will be offering a series of One Time Only courses and not just for three days, but for three weeks. That way you have more time to work with the material, ask questions, and interact with the faculty.
-
These courses will cover everything from technique to artistic discovery. They will include synchronous and asynchronous learning and will be scheduled so that there are no conflicts preventing you from taking as many courses as you would like.
-
Anyone who has already registered will be able to shift over to the online courses of their choice in the coming weeks when the full list of courses is announced. If you opt to cancel your registration, please know that all funds will be refunded 100% for both housing and tuition.
​
The specific courses, faculty and times are all now posted here online. Although we have just opened registration we are already experiencing a rush on registration. We are aware that some courses are already nearing the cap point. We will do what we can to offer the courses but we will not be able to raise the 30 people cap. Early bird gets the worm.

These courses are offered for those who have already attended the institute and for brand new participants who are interested in going into more depth in these areas of science and artistry.

There are no pre-requisites for any of them.

"The Gold Standard for CCM Training"
Kim Ray, 2019 Participant
"In my three decades of teaching, I've never encountered a faculty who work so well together, who are so knowledgeable and skilled, and whose enthusiastic generosity as educators never falters. If you sing, teach, or even just geek out over contemporary singing styles, you owe it to yourself to experience the CCM Institute."
"The CCM Institute is a treasure, and this anatomy lab was by far the best use of time and money I've ever spent professionally."
Kimberly Prins Moeller
2019 Participant
David Glasgow, 2019 Participant
"The faculty was extremely respectful of everyone and encouraged those who are new to CCM singing. There was no judgement here- just a safe environment for artists to learn and grow."
Elise Lindo, 2019 Participant
