We are excited to welcome musicologist and conductor Dr. Vlad Morosan for this weekend crash course in the Eight Tones!
Join us for 3 days of learning the history, form and structure, application of the tones, and most importantly, how to sing the tones. This workshop will teach the tone melodies, harmonies, how to pitch the choir, and how to sing to unpointed text. Leave the weekend with the confidence to return to your church choir ready to sing any tone that comes your way.
This is a beginner-friendly workshop - you do not have to currently sing in a choir or know the tones by heart! As a pre-requisite: we do ask anyone who would like to attend to be able to identify treble clef note names, so you can be prepared to gain the most from the workshop experience. If you are not familiar with notation Tonesavvy.com is a great resource for learning notes.
