MUS 125-225 - Voice I and II

Institution:

Carroll College

Subject:

Description:

A series of courses beginning with the production of sound and from there, depending on individual talent and interest, building a varied repertoire that may include folk, musical theatre, classical and operatic selections. Voice I explores the production of sound and prepares the student for performance. Emphasis is on the individual's voice, breathing, bringing sound to the mask of the face, strengthening and expanding the range, acoustics and care of the voice. Students explore toning, Gregorian chant, technical and interpretational aspects of music and monologue. Students present staged selections for an on-campus-by-invitation-only performance final at the end of the semester. Voice I is open to all students and is a prerequisite for Voice II. Voice II emphasizes sight-reading, ear training, blending voices into multiple harmonies, exploring the musical genre, expansion of a varied repertoire and working with a professional accompanist. The staged performance final is developed by students and performed off campus, providing practical application of communication skills learned in Voice I. Prerequisite: Voice I.
