Body Echo
A wonderful and important theme - the singer's engine, or breath, is the foundation of everything.
Since the voice is an extension of exhalation, the singer (and speaker) must know his or her own vocal instrument based on its anatomy, functional anatomy, and voice production techniques, and especially the functionality of breathing. Knowing the function of one's own breathing in sound formation and consistent practice based on this knowledge significantly strengthens the vocal student's competence and the development of skills.
Our singing students need and benefit from this kind of teaching. It is also an advantage of our Singing School, as teaching based on functional anatomy is rare and its experts are unfortunately few and far between.

Do you want to peek behind the stage curtain and experience a touch of the magic of Musical Theatre?
Or maybe get a taste of what it's like to create a short musical scene with choreography together with other singers? You can experience all of this in this Musical Theatre summer course!

During the course, we will create a small dramatic ensemble together, to which we will also add small choreographies! Everyone will definitely get to sing a lot during the days, including into the microphone.
