Solo Singing Masterclass with Kim Nazarian (New York Voices)

As part of Black Forest Voices, we offer an annual accompanying masterclass for individuals. In 2022, you could dive into jazz & pop choral conducting with Jan-Hendrik Herrmann (Jazzchor der Uni Bonn). This year we look forward to SOLO SINGING: FINDING YOUR OWN VOICE! with Kim Nazarian (New York Voices), accompaniment by Cornelius Mack.

Attention solo singers! For beginners and advanced singers!
The application phase is closed, the participants have been selected.

Brief insight from Kim Nazarian: "The Finding Your Own Voice Masterclass will entail each soloist embracing their personally selected repertoire and using the music as a conduit for self expression... A vocalist must own the song with truth in order to become vulnerable enough to allow the listener inside. The sessions will pay attention to embodying the groove of the arrangement, telling the story with the phrasing of the lyric, utilizing dynamics, and perhaps even trying something new! We will breathe new life into every song by lifting it off of the page, and making it a multi-dimensional experience.... this process is one of the wonders of music..... PURE MAGIC!"
