Session I
In session one, we examine how to cultivate what the singer brings to the table and how to merge their artistic goals with functional voice training. You will learn how to tell when it's time to build the voice and when it's time to follow the artist. Most importantly we will show you how to mentor artists both functionally and artistically through numerous small group and experiential learning activities. Participants will also have the opportunity to visit the SU cadaver lab for hands-on experience with a human larynx and respiratory system
(optional). This powerful experience consistently brings new clarity to the delicate work we do as voice teachers. Through a combination of pre-recorded lectures and live sessions, participants will learn to balance vocal function, vocal health, authenticity, and artistry.
Learning from any of the Institute faculty is an honor: their generosity of mind, heart, and soul reminds me of the most cherished long-term mentorships of my development as an artist and teacher. But get all of these faculty in a room together, and the synergy is almost palpable. They create—and re-create in real-time response to Institute attendees—a fertile space where science and soul, individuality and community, strengths and growing edges, are all valued, celebrated, and encouraged. Returning to the Institute each summer is the highlight of my professional year. These 9 days serve as both reset button and launchpad, but most importantly as the source of a cherished network of colleagues and friends to whom I can turn for accountability and support the other 51 weeks of the year.
