Zoom – Anna will teach songs from videos on the site. Relaxed rehearsals. Song taught line by line. Due to latency, everyone will be muted. ‘Harmony’ video will allow sing-along. Break-out sessions to link with other choir members.
Singing Lessons – Choir members will be led through warm-up, focusing on specific elements of good singing technique.
Learning Videos – In these videos, Anna will be teaching the parts (bass; tune; etc.) to songs. You may want to go over sections of the videos to learn trickier bits. Once you feel confident, you can sing along to the ‘full harmony’ video.
