Michele Simon, a longtime and beloved singing teacher at the West Coast Mendocino Balkan camps, will be using innovative exercises and imagery to develop technique for safely creating the bright forward sound characteristic throughout the Balkans. Her work is rooted in universal fundamentals: anatomy, breath, individual vocal range, performance ease, and safe-singing practice. In the class we will work intensively on placement of resonance, and then learn a song to explore close harmony, ornaments, pronunciation, non-western scales, and odd-metered rhythms.

All levels welcome!
