Description
In the spring semester, students continue to expand vocal range and power, and apply that to heightened text. Exercises and projects continue the exploration of text in a variety of indoor and outdoor venues. Students will also experience working on mic in large stage venues, and apply the IPA to a range of stage dialects. This course is designed to introduce students to various modes of speech research and the methods used in dialect acquisition. Primary emphasis will be on research and identification of phonetic symbols. The class also intersects with and provides coaching support for the 3rd year performance capstone projects.
