CoMA Voices invites you to
Workshop: Exploring contemporary Vocal Music

Venue: Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music & Dance, Greenwich, London SE10 9JF

“This workshop is part of the CoMA Open Score project. We will be exploring six brand new compositions for flexible vocal ensemble by postgraduate students at Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music & Dance.

“We will be working with the composers to share in the creative process of producing exciting and original choral works. The pieces will be varied in style and we will round off the day with an informal performance for the composers.”

The workshop will be led by Sarah Leonard, Musical Director of CoMA Voices. She is a leading interpreter of contemporary vocal music. Her encouraging approach has helped many people develop their singing potential and their understanding of contemporary music.

CoMA Voices is one of the ensembles of Contemporary Music for All, which promotes participation in contemporary music for musicians of all abilities.
This is the sixth year of this popular series of workshops at Trinity Laban.

Previous experience of contemporary vocal music is not necessary.

Cost: £20 (£15 concessions).
