This module seeks to consolidate issues of style and technique particular to your specialist performance context. As you continue to develop your current first study repertoire as singers or instrumentalists, your understanding of style, and your skill in preparing for audition or performance is intended to be supported through peer observation and learning in the masterclass environment.
The importance of communicative performance and of an actively engaging relationship with the listener will be emphasised in group performance classes, and a good standard of critical self- reflection will be encouraged in preparing you for the assessment task. You will discuss aspects of performance practice relevant to your individual instrument or voice, and develop your skills in the formation of critical judgements of performance.
