This class is suited for singers who are comfortable singing one-on-a-part and would like a real challenge. We move fast - but it is fun! With an emphasis on duet and trio singing, we'll dive into great repertoire from American genres including country, bluegrass, blues, and contemporary folk, and also mix in songs from around the world including Balkan duets, South African harmony styles, and other close-harmony traditions.

We'll break into small groups from the get go, exploring all the challenging and fun aspects that singing in a small group entails. This includes holding parts independently, being able to dial into fellow singers and make a blended sound, feeling flexible with harmony parts and adding personal touches, being able to express and shape an arrangement together, and feeling confident singing in front of others in a small group.

For this round of the class, we will do a mix of new and familiar songs. New songs will include songs by Bob Dylan and Gillian Welch, some harmonized Appalachian ballads, a few choral songs from world traditions, and a Sephardic song or two. Are there songs we've done before that you'd love to return to? Or genres you'd love to explore? Please let Emily know at emily@jalopytheatre.org.
