Can I get some ideas to help start a vocal music program in this school?

1 Answer

Answer :

answer:This is just the first thing that came to mind. I’m just throwing it out there for thought. At the school where I’ve taken guitar classes, they have some ensemble courses that look fun. They pick a theme or artist, and work on songs from that repertoire. They include guitars and singers (and singing guitarists). The classes last 8 weeks, and the last night all the groups perform for each other. It’s like grade-school recital night for adults! Here are a few of the current examples: Beatles Ensemble Springsteen Ensemble 80s Alternative Ensemble Johnny Cash Ensemble Just my idea for starters.
