Self-Accompanying Singer Ensemble

ENVC-261

An ensemble for singers who accompany themselves and wish to advance performance skills, as well as reflect on their creative process. This course explores the best arrangements for solo performance, advancing instrumental skills, solo rhythm skills, personal commitment and motivation in performance, and dynamic choices in both voice and accompaniment. Group exercises include speed writing/arranging, reimagining a cover song, and song-swap covers. A midterm reflection paper in response to The War of Art is required.
