Vocal workshops

We start with a group exercise session, followed by a solo spot of 20-30 minutes duration. Your own choice of repertoire is supported by one of our outstanding coaches, and the active engagement of the whole group.  Please wear comfortable clothing and expect to go barefoot or in socks. Please let us know in advance of your choice of repertoire, and bring a copy for the accompanist.

Movement workshops: In these workshops group work in movement will be the dominant activity, but singing and sounds will be part of the experience. Clothing for movement is required.

What is special about Barefoot Opera’s integrated training?

Barefoot Opera’s tutors positively enable and support the work that singers are already engaged in, whilst offering fresh insights into the skills of classical singing and integrated movement.

Since we believe that real artistry and satisfaction in our art form is only found by engaging our whole self in the process, we work with the whole body /person in every sense.  We firmly believe that a deeper understanding of how your body and breath work in movement will significantly develop your understanding of your voice, and to this end we have been creating a unique body of work for over fifteen years with our movement specialists.

Barefoot Opera invites you to rethink and deconstruct: to strip opera down to the basics of body, breath, movement, sound. We help you to access what you already have: the tools and resources to improve your whole experience of singing and performing. See the video below to sample our unique offer.

Our training exercises enable you to develop an energised, physical, ensemble approach – key to facilitating the demands of contemporary directors.
