Vocal Workshop for Beginners @ Lauderdale House
Jan 25 @ 10:30 am – 2:30 pm

Novice singer that would like to improve? Come to Singing in London Workshop for Beginners and learn to sing from scratch in four hours!

The workshop will teach you singing skills step by step from basic level and will show you how to use your vocal range in both singing for fun and presentation for public speaking.

We’ll be working on singing and breathing techniques and will show you how to develop your singing skills.

Are you a soprano, an alto, a baritone or bass – you’ll find out at the workshop!

To round it off together we’ll prepare you for a short group performance at the end of the workshop.

We’ve chosen two beautiful songs to practice at the workshop: Magic Moments By Perry Como & Over the Rainbow from the Wizard of Oz. The workshop schedule & the song sheets with web links to practice will be emailed to you upon booking.

At the end of the workshop you will receive a certificate of achievement for completing the beginner level. You can follow it up with the 2nd Level workshop for Intermediates in February.

We limit places to our workshops so enrol now to secure your place before it’s booked up book online.
