One-on-One coaching

You will have an hour-long private coaching with your personal vocal coach and music director before the week begins to help you hone your skills, flesh out your unique style, work on an original arrangement (you will receive a personalized .mp3 recording of your arrangement) and get feedback that will help you thrive during Songbook Academy week.

 

During the week, you will continue to have one-on-one coaching experiences, as well as small group workshops (8 students paired with 2 mentors) and large group masterclasses (full group of forty finalists) where you can learn alongside your peers. 

 

Don't forget to have FUN!
