Audition Preparation Weekend
Audrey Hyland and Saffron van Zwanenberg
Friday 7 – Sunday 9 November 2014
Course No. 3115
Level: All
Fee: £200
Solo Study Course
Are you a singer preparing to audition for a Music College or University, or perhaps you have your final graduation recital or first professional auditions coming up? Spend a weekend working with opera director Saffron van Zwanenberg and vocal coach Audrey Hyland, both experienced at sitting on audition panels and helping people prepare for auditions.
You will hone your pieces and learn practical tips to enable you to cope with nerves and what to do when things don’t go to plan. Then test your improvement in a mock audition at the end of the course to give yourself the best possible chance of performing the way you want on the big day!
