This Repertory Studio class offers advanced vocal training for performers ages 11–16 who are ready to strengthen their technique, musicianship, and confidence as singers. Using a variety of musical selections by Dolly Parton, students will explore different vocal styles while developing the skills needed for strong, expressive, and versatile performance.

Throughout the session, students will work on selected songs by Dolly Parton, focusing on vocal technique, musical interpretation, harmony, and performance. Students will be challenged to grow as individual singers while also developing their ability to listen, blend, and collaborate within an ensemble.
Students will focus on:

• Strengthening healthy vocal technique, breath support, and vocal control
• Developing pitch accuracy, rhythm, diction, and musicality
• Exploring vocal expression, dynamics, phrasing, and interpretation
• Learning to approach different musical styles with confidence and versatility
• Developing harmony and ensemble singing skills
• Building stage presence and performance confidence
• Connecting lyrics and musical choices to create authentic performances

Baseline Assessment:
After registration, students will be contacted and asked to submit a video recording of a song. This submission will serve as baseline data to help the instructor understand each student's current vocal skill level, identify areas for growth, and tailor instruction throughout the session.

Repertory Studio is designed for students who are ready to be challenged, receive detailed feedback, and take greater ownership of their growth as vocal performers.
