This subject synthesises the students’ performance skills in devising processes and methodologies. Students continue practical classes including Voice and Movement. Vocal and physical health, wellbeing and maintenance are emphasised throughout the final semester in preparation for the graduation of autonomous and resilient artists with the capacity to sustain and maintain their practice. Students will refine their training and performance methodology established over three years of technical classwork and training.
Intended learning outcomes
On completion of this subject, students should be able to:
- synthesise and apply vocal and physical skills and approaches in autonomous performance based tasks;
- design a vocal and physical health and maintenance plan for use and application as an independent artist;
- design vocal and physical warm-ups for individuals and groups demonstrating knowledge of best practice;
- apply and sustain a professional working ethos in independent and collaborative work and in communication with staff, industry and peers.
