- Description
Getting to know and trying out a wide range of contemporary vocal music
The course aims to prepare students for an encounter with contemporary music in the singing profession. Works with different aesthetics of contemporary music and their most important predecessors will be considered and tried out together, advanced vocal techniques and the healthy handling of them will be practiced:
- Approaching complex scores (new notation signs, graphic aspects in scores, microintervallics, complex rhythms).
- Basic vocal techniques of new music: Sprechgesang, non-vibrato, breath and vocal timbres, as well as extended vocal techniques: experimental and overlapping (= borrowed from other music cultures, folkloristic, classical or popular) techniques such as overtone singing or beatboxing.
- Improvisation: How do I experiment with my voice in a healthy way?
- How do I find the right piece for my own voice? Students are welcome to suggest pieces they have brought with them. We take a central look: The classics and much-quoted new music vocal works by Luciano Berio/Sequenza, John Cage/Aria, Georges Aperghis/Recitations. Works by younger and younger, female, queer, POC composers depending on the theme of the day and the interests of the participants
- Communication about (one's own) voice / working with composers
