A primer to research informed and technology mediated singing and vocal pedagogy
Tuesday 9 March 2027

In this presentation, we will be looking at the wider role of technology in the teaching of singing and vocal pedagogy. We will also be exploring key concepts of how scientific enquiry has informed teaching and every day practice. The session will include the exploration of key software (free as well as commercial) and how they could be used (and abused!) creatively in order to support vocal development.
