About this Event
Join USE for an Artist Workshop facilitated by Martin Hurt!
This free workshop will allow participants dedicated time to explore their vocals with voice teacher/actor/singer Martin Hurt and dive into their individual singing style. After a group warm up of various exercises, each participant will work with Martin individually (instruments are welcome to accompany your voice!) to identify where vocal technique and communication can be improved. A piano accompanist will be provided for those who wish to bring sheet music. Each participant should bring 1-2 songs.
