This lunch is an optional, fun meet-up for the Single Singers.
The Single Singers is an a cappella group open to any singer at any level who is willing to learn the material on his or her own, prior to coming to SingStrong, and willing to perform on stage after just one day together!
We won’t have time to plunk notes so make sure you know your part cold! (You’ll also need a weekend pass or class pass to participate.)
Contact your director for learning materials and get ready to sing your heart out!
You will be performing at the Saturday 2PM concert during the judge’s deliberations.
Learn to sing two notes at the same time.
Do you really need more information than that? Ok. Maybe you do!
Overtone Singing is a technique that enables one vocalist to produce and, with a bit of practice, control two notes simultaneously.
Overtone singing can be used in various contexts, from emulating synthesized sounds to full self-polyphony. When multiple voices come together to sing in this style, a relaxing, glowing atmosphere is created. This workshop will explain the theory behind overtone singing and teach the basic techniques of producing them.
Singing in harmony can challenge even the most talented of singers. Learn the techniques that make ensembles come alive right from the reigning NY and National Harmony Sweepstakes Champions, Resolve!
You may have more questions – and hopefully you will find the answers in this workshop. We will look at a selection of arrangement examples and explore different methods, ’rules’ and arrangement techniques within modern Scandinavian vocal music.
Your vocal health means everything! Trained singer turned Speech Pathologist, Lynda Antonetti shows singers and beatboxers the path to a healthy voice.
Beatboxers, have you ever wondered about the impact of your sound effects on your vocal folds? Lynda will discuss the surprising implications of beatboxing on your vocal health.
Singers, have you noticed that some artists “can’t do it live”? For some singers using some techniques, the sound they achieve in studio isn’t sustainable in a live setting. It does too much damage to the vocal chords. How can you tell if you’re doing things the healthy way or not?
This class examines the voice as an instrument and the singer as an athlete. Lynda helps you determine what type of voice user you are, and most importantly, points out the common pitfalls that hurt singers and how to avoid them.
Lynda A. Antonetti MS, CCC-SLP holds a Bachelors of Science in Speech Pathology from SUNY Geneseo, and her masters from NOVA Southeastern University. She’s been a certified Speech Language Pathologist since 1998, but she’s been a singer all her life with formal vocal lessons beginning at the age of 9. Lynda’s focus is on the need for Speech Pathology in the world of entertainment. Her clients include both adults and children with a variety of disabilities, however her passion is to educate those who use their voices for their career.
With just a quick touch upon the basics, this class will quickly move on to more advanced concepts in overtone singing, including varying styles and techniques and the application of overtone singing within the ensemble setting.
Author/performer/conductor Tine Fris-Ronsfeld from Postyr and SYNG Selected will lead a playful workshop based on the book “ICEBREAKERS– A PracticalApproach To Group Dynamics”.
Icebreakers are games and exercises that bring people of all ages
together. Through icebreakers the participants share new experiences.
Icebreakers facilitate a positive atmosphere and strengthen the social
bonds of a group, using music and games to get there.
During this workshop you will be introduced to different approaches to
working on group dynamics. We will practice some exercises to improve
the cooperation, communication, concentration and grounding skills of
the group, and use games and much more.
With a fun and playful approach, the workshop will be a combination of
exercises, games and reflection.

No words. Just an entire class of meditative drone and shimmering, soaring harmonics to lift the spirits. All participants and teachers will be singing together.
(Ok. There might be just a few words…)
Arranging is hard enough when it’s only about notes. Add syllables in and you face a completely separate challenge. What’s too busy? What’s too plain? What’s off-putting? What enhances the music and what distracts? John David Maybury leads an interactive class that explores emotional intention and artistry as drivers behind the selection and performance of background syllables. So come on! Get’s doo-doo-doo this! Feel free to bring YOUR arrangements for coaching as part of the class! Heartfelt are on board to share their arrangements! Maybe you will too!
