| Description |
The weekend includes interactive lectures,
discussion, reflection, skill building (group voice classes,
interpretation, and coaching), and repertoire that best reflects the
core identity of the cantor. At some points in the weekend, you will
have the opportunity to choose sessions according to your own needs. The weekend has something to offer cantors at all levels of
experience: beginner, advanced, and professional. Most cantors are
proficient in some areas but need to develop in others. Some
participants are even discerning whether this ministry is right for them
and come simply to explore. Whatever your level of skill and experience,
the institute offers you an opportunity to assess areas for growth,
begin to fill in gaps, and lay the groundwork for a firmer foundation
for your ministry. |
