Vocal Health Harmony
Donated by board member and speech/language pathologist and certified Vocologist Kristen Bond, this package allows a lucky attendee and their family or small group of friends to experience a behind-the-scenes look into vocal health. Your day will start with a visit to California Pacific Voice and Swallowing, where Kristen will give you a tour of their interdisciplinary voice center, including exam and therapy spaces, an overview of the center's work, and brief vocal health talk with tips, vocal fold exam, and acoustic voice analysis.
Then, apply the skills you've learned from Kristen to Mr. Cole's Singer's Workshop over the summer. A favorite among our singers, Singer's Workshop is a week-long day camp for the aspiring vocalist entering grades 5 and up. No experience is necessary to participate in this differentiated singing camp that allows aspiring vocalists to expand their range, teaches new and more advanced vocal techniques and repertoire, improves musicianship skills, and most importantly, imparts more confidence as a singer. Students will also be given ample opportunities to get outside and enjoy movement. The week concludes with a performance at 2:00pm on Friday, August 1.
This package is perfect for those interested in careers in the vocal health space or singers interested in bringing their singing to the next level.
