INTRO TO OVERTONE SINGING WITH Harmonic Introductions
Overtone Singing is a technique that enables one vocalist to produce and, with a bit of practice, control two notes simultaneously. Overtone singing can be used in various contexts, from emulating synthesized sounds to full self-polyphony. When multiple voices come together to sing in this style, a relaxing, glowing atmosphere is created. Overtones are always perfectly in tune. This workshop will explain the theory behind overtone singing and teach the basic techniques of producing them. Harmonic Introductions is a community vocal ensemble dedicated to expanding the awareness, appreciation, and understanding of polyphonic overtone singing. Founded by Robb Saffell and Julian-Israel Canizares in Spring, 2012, Harmonic Introductions has hosted and participated in over 100 events for over a decade to teach, perform, and build a culture and community focused on the art of overtone singing. #hs #college #pro #class #intro #overtone #overtones #overtonesinging #participate #perform #sing #theory |

HOW TO DEVELOP A STUDENT-RUN Group w Adam Paltrowitz
A HS director only has so many hours in the day to teach and direct their groups. But what if your groups could direct themselves? Adam Paltrowitz, public school music director, has a HS program with eight student-led a cappella groups and one teacher-led group. That's probably a world record. We don't know. What we do know is that each and every year these groups are filled with students who take ownership of their path to excellence. This class will talk about the challenges building a self-directed program and the incredible benefits for student and teacher alike that make it all worthwhile. Discover how to create a high school a cappella group that thrives independently. Equip your students with the skills to rehearse effectively, arrange music, choreograph performances, select soloists, and handle every aspect of the ensemble—all without constant direction from you. Transform your teacher-led into a self-directed, collaborative group while fostering leadership, accountability, and creativity among your singers. #hs #pro #class #education #direction |

IF BEING WRONG WAS A SPORT, YOU WOULD WIN THE WORLD SERIES.
