Virtual Courses and Workshops

Following the outstanding success and unprecedented demand for places on our Flagship courses from teachers and singers in 2019, we are delighted to announce that we will not only continue with our portfolio of two separately focused courses - SATS Pedagogy and SATS Practical - but also the addition of Advanced One Day Workshops and Practice Groups throughout the year.

To do this, we have teamed up with Vocal Craft - a fantastic company owned and managed by CVT Director James Platt. Vocal Craft have very generously allowed us to use their website as a booking platform for all of the new courses that we are setting up in 2020. Each course you see advertised below will be planned, taught and executed by the Classical Voice Training team that you know and trust, just with some added technical and admministration assistance from Vocal Craft.

About this year’s courses

We have launched a brand-new digital format for our courses this year which includes a core component workshop every month, followed by a practice group session that is designed to practically reinforce the theory learnt in the component workshop. We hope this will give you time to explore the theory behind our teaching model and to experience all its practical elements so that you can integrate these skills into your own singing and teaching more easily.

 

By splitting the teaching model down into its component parts, we are offering participants the ability to have the full experience of one of our flagship 5-day courses but from the comfort of their own home. This is something we have been asked for previously and we are delighted to now be able to offer such flexibility.

 

As well as a new digital format we are now offering participants who are unable to attend, for whatever reason, on the days or times below, the opportunity to have access to the full workshop or practice group recording of the live session. All you must do is book a place on the course you’d like access to and then email us to let us know that you want access to the recordings only.

2017 Guildhall Course

These proved overwhelmingly popular, with demand for sessions outweighing the number of sessions on offer.  Book on our next course to avoid disappointment.
