Access to the workshops below is included in the Choir of the Year ticket price of £5 (competing singers can attend free of charge), but please register in advance at www.choiroftheyear.com to reserve your place.

with Joanna Forbes L’Estrange
Singer and vocal coach Joanna Forbes L’Estrange will lead her ever-popular workshop - with accompanying jazz warm-ups - aimed at conductors who are keen to add non-classical repertoire to their concert programmes and perform those “lighter” styles idiomatically.

Want to know to develop truly exciting but disciplined singing through healthy vocal technique, connection to the text, and performance skills? Val Whitlock, vocal consultant and children’s choral expert will lead this session for choral directors and leaders looking to take their children’s choirs to the next level. The session will include a practical demonstration with a children’s choir.

Robert Hollingworth, director of innovative specialist Renaissance vocal ensemble I Fagiolini, gets to grips with the fundamentals of tackling this repertoire and asks whether a singer and conductor's approach should be any different from any other type of choral music.
