The second session (90 mins) will cover interpretation of a song and reworking a song to suit your voice and style. Elizabeth makes the sessions participative, practical, challenging and fun. Cost is $50 with a $10 discount for BUMS financial members. "With my workshops, I encourage everyone to find their authentic voice by enjoying the numerous benefits of singing. With my fun, simple and sometimes silly exercises, I really could teach the world to sing!" Elizabeth Ross |
