A five-week course (spring semester only)
Description:
Many performers do not know how to practice. They rush through rehearsals or they try to do other things while practicing, or they neglect to think about the power of their material until performance night. This course, in essence, is about how to practice performing. Through unique techniques in physical, mental, and emotional preparation, students not only find their rehearsals and performances more focused and consistent, but also make themselves better audience members. All elements are placed in focus through class performances, and ultimately, a public concert. This class is designed for active performers (musicians, actors, public speakers). Not subject to N.Y. Philharmonic discount.
Open to 12 participants who are prepared to perform a two- to four-minute work from memory in the first class.
