Module Content
Outline Syllabus:In Singing 2 the student will continue the development of their singing voice from level 04. It is expected during the module that the work explored will be more complex and demanding so as to consolidate the students skills, knowledge and expertise and to broaden their repertoire and experience. As with studies in level 04, the student will continue to explore: 
Vocal Health, 
Breathing, 
Range, 
Pitch
, Rhythm, Resonance, 
Projection, 
Articulation, 
Harmony and 
Musicality
. The focus of the singing studies in this module will be on the development of a sustainable singing voice for professional performance in commercial and popular music
One-to-one singing lesson will be where the student spends time focusing on the development of their individual singing style and technique. Tutors will assess and continually reassess the students voice in order to provide a technical programme that will be tailored specifically to suit their vocal needs. In this class the student will have the opportunity to explore their vocal potential and put together a repertoire of material suitable for professional practice.
Repertoire/Technique:
The Repertoire classes will provide the student with the opportunity to prepare songs ready to work on in their individual lessons. The student will be guided in sourcing appropriate repertoire, learning the material from personal own personal resources as opposed to the internet etc., preparation of sheet music ready to be worked on in one to one lessons. This will also at times provide the opportunity to receive peer and teacher feedback on your song presentation work.
Additional Information:The module continues the student’s vocal development from level 04 and encourages the development of individual style. Assessment is via two presentations of three contrasting songs each.
