“Sploosh!” — a Vocal Workshop

With a background in theater and stand-up comedy, Kellye Gray has developed a technique to help students connect with the creative mind that allows them to improvise, compose and perform on the spot. Singers work with Kellye on various exercises that help to keep the “editor of the mind” in check. In the second half of the workshop, an accompanist joins the class. Interacting with a pianist and with the other students in the workshop, vocalists discover how to create freely and with confidence. The… Show more atmosphere of “play” is serious work that translates into results. According to Ms. Gray: “Students learn how to listen, invent, evolve and improvise. They create completely improvised compositions as a solo artist, a duet and even a trio.”
