Going forward for the month of JUNE, we will continue with our planned lecture series and add a SINGING LOTTERY and 20 QUESTIONS. This will give more singers a chance to present an aria or art song for the class, as well as open the floor for questions!
BEGINNING WEDNESDAY, JUNE 3rd, our new class structure will include 3 major parts:
Part I. 60 minute lecture on a topic related to our industry Part II. 30-45 minute session where we will hear and work with 2 to 4 singers: Time depends on rep, but I plan to choose 2 singers and 2 alternates for each class.
**15 minute pausa/break**
Part III. Class will end with 20 QUESTIONS. Pre-selected speakers will be unmutedone at a time so they may ask their question, and I'll answer it for the class. This portion of the class should go no longer than 60 minutes.
*If you would like to SING, please sign up using the Google Form link provided below.
Winners of the lottery will be notified via email and given advance notice of their slot to sing for the class. Donations are not necessary to be selected to sing.
*If you would like to be called on as a SPEAKER to ask a question, please sign up using the Google Form link provided below. Winners will be notified via email and asked to make a minimum $15 donation to secure a slot. *Please do not make your donation for a question until you have been notified by me and scheduled! Donations NOT in conjunction with a scheduled slot will be counted as general donations for the series.*
Classes will be held on Saturdays and Sundays, as well as one varying day (TUES, WED, OR THURS) during the week. Please continue to check your email for exact time slots, as they may also vary throughout the month. But I will try to keep an early session and a later session available as often as possible for more opportunities!
All top donors are invited to all classes and may apply for the 20 Questions or the Singing Lottery. However, beginning in June, I am creating two additional classes per week (DAYS AND TIMES WILL VARY!) for top donors only to SING and ASK QUESTIONS. The first class will be TUESDAY, JUNE 2nd at 3pm Eastern Time.
To qualify for "Top Donor" status, you must have made up to $50 worth of donations total, since the beginning of this series.
The class structure and requirements to participate are:
CLASS STRUCTURE
Part I. Up to 2 hours: Max of 8 Singers will be selected to present an aria or art song for the class, and receive detailed coaching. Top donors who have sung before may sing again.
