OPERA WORKSHOP
July 26 - Aug 1, 2010
Over the course of the past fourteen years under the
guidance of artistic director Wendy Nielsen,
this workshop has gained a national reputation as the place for singers to
come for an intense, artistic growth experience. Our workshop seeks to
bridge the gap between voice student and young professional. Valuable
contacts are made with our experienced faculty who are all at the top of
their fields.
The faculty work as a team to guide each of the 16 singers selected towards
being a more polished and free artist. A non-competitive atmosphere is
encouraged and singers have an opportunity to 'recharge their batteries' in
beautiful St Andrews-by-the-Sea. The workshop is process-oriented and while
there is no public performance, scene studies and masterclasses provide vehicles for implementing new concepts. Singers receive daily
Alexander classes as well as individual work with Malcolm Balk, individual voice lessons
and group masterclasses with Wendy Nielsen, individual acting coachings and formal stage direction on scenes with Tom Diamond, as well as individual coachings and masterclasses with John Greer. This year sees the addition of a life skills workshop
with Rebecca Hass via Skype. We even manage to have some fun in the midst
of all of the work!
Application Requirements
1. A non refundable $25.00
application fee made payable to the St. Andrews Arts Council
2. A good quality tape/CD of three or
more contrasting selections representing a variety of language and style.
