Performing as part of a vocalist/instrumentalist duo can provide a wealth of experience and skills that can see you entertaining crowds and even get paid for what you love to do. This workshop is an introduction to playing in a duo and will give you a taste for what it is like. You will meet like-minded people who are interested in collaborating with you, and who knows? You might get onto something really special.

This workshop will welcome strictly five vocalists and five pianists/guitarists (first in, best dressed!). You will be asked to learn six songs ahead of the workshop. When you arrive at the workshop, each vocalist will be paired with their own pianist/guitarist and you will move off into individual rooms to jam on the songs. Together with your partner, you will choose your favourite of the six songs and perform the song to the rest of the group in the second half of the workshop. Your duo will have the assistance of Emma (voice coach), who will offer each duo feedback and advice. It is encouraged that if you enjoy the experience of collaborating with your partner that you meet up and continue jamming in your own time!

A special note for the guitarists in attendance – please make sure you have a capo with you on the day.

Workshop For All Musicians

Ever wondered how the experts seem to effortlessly work out how to play a song just by a quick listen? Some people might think this is a magical talent that only appears after years of experience playing an instrument, but, it’s actually easier than you may think – the methods are easily attainable even for beginners. This workshop focuses on melody as a basis for transcription, designed to get your ears trained up to listen in the correct way to allow you to work out your favourite songs without having to rely on the sometimes dubious internet transcriptions!

At the same time, these new skills will help you in other areas on your instrument from better improvisation techniques to work out how to begin writing your own music and songs. After all, your ears are going to be your most important guide on the road to mastering music so let’s see if we can tune it up for you!
