Bringing the Song and the Group Together: Instant Arranging

Alice Parker
Saturday, July 16th: 7 pm to 8:30 pm
Phillips Music Center Recital Hall

In Ms. Parker’s SINGS, the group learns a song ‘by ear’,  then follows her hints to make an on-the-spot improvisation.  She will share the ideas that make this not only possible, but musically satisfying.

 

Alice Parker is a living musical legend, with over fifty years’ experience in teaching which has given her the ability to express her ideas in clear and memorable language. Her love of poetry and of the lyric line in both words and songs undergirds her understanding. She has identified techniques which work for composers, performers and teachers, and inspires any group which works with her to be a wonderfully musical, expressive and communicative singer.
