A local Bay Area teacher is teaching a sight singing class for any interested!
MARKETING MONDAY:
Sight Singing for Everyone: A Kodaly-based class for teens and adults
Do you love to sing but wish you had better sight singing and musicianship skills? Then this class is designed for you. Sight reading for singers is different than music reading for other instruments. Singers have to hear every note and interval in our heads. There are no short cuts, no keys to press, no chord shapes. This is hard! What finally made it click for me was the Kodály approach to music education and moveable do solfège, and I want to share these tools with you.
Through singing, playing, listening, moving and writing (music, that is), you will start to put together a system for sight singing that works for you. I will teach you the basics of "moveable do" solfège and common rhythm patterns through play and singing. It will be fun! We will also practice sight singing using your new-found skills. You will learn what you need in a playful, nonjudgemental atmosphere.
This class is good for you if:
You are a total beginner,
OR
You read music, but still feel like you haven’t mastered sight singing,
OR
You want to try a a new and fun way to improve your skills.

Vocal music is my joy. My passion is bringing the joy of music and the skills needed for success to people of all ages. As a Kodály-trained teacher, I use intuitive and fun tools to teach a high level of musicianship to my students, no matter their level of experience.
