Music and Performance

Getting Your Act Together

This is for those who want to experiment with how the tale is told through song. Suitable for both tunesmiths and wordsmiths, the course will cover setting the scene, assailing the heart, making the point and moving the plot along. The week will lead to individual presentations of new work and a level of performance will be required from students.
