Intonation classext_346225May 20 2013, 18:16:11 UTC
I really liked the intonation class, but I will just speak as a singer, it was hard for me to use a recorder for pretty much the first time and have enough mouth and breath control to accomplish the tasks. Arin and I tried both recorder and voice, and we were able to tune with voices too. I'd love to see this class support voice people a little more. The best part of the class was HEARING with the phones the differences in pitch, and getting that feeling in my body, then trying it myself. I'm going to do a version of this exercise with our group to train singers what in-tune FEELS like.
re: the master class. I'm not exactly a veteran, but I've managed to form the impression from mundane master classes that it's considered quite the faux pas for the audience to talk during the class. Like, at all. Make a noise and you get dirty looks. Last year I thought people were quite good about that, but this year... I felt the urge to issue some dirty looks myself. I'm not sure what we can do about that, other than maybe have somebody say something at the start?
I would want to participate in the master class, if I had a thing that I was preparing for performance. I haven't had such a thing, this year or last, but I'd be sad if the format went away.
