A few of the Awesome Voices crew - Kris, Veronica, Jenny, Kate and myself - headed up to the Tweed Civic Centre, Brett st, Tweed Heads on Saturday, February 16th, 2013 for an excellent vocal workshop with Choir of Hard Knocks founder, Jonathan Welch.
He ran a fantastic workshop - very entertaining and informative. He had all 140 or so of the participants, dancing, singing and making other strange noises! Everyone had a big grin on their face and I learned a few new tricks and tips for my work with choirs. I'll be introducing one or two of them into the rehearsal regime for Awesome Voices. All up, it was a great day!
I also discovered that Jonathan was a student of my former singing teacher, Alan Hendrie, back in the days of Sydney Young Opera singing lessons in the 80's & 90's.
