SUPPORT SYSTEM

TYCA nurtures through careful assessment and teaching. TYCA provides a master course for a small number of young and exceptionally talented singers, to prepare them for their professional careers in opera.

The course provides individual tuition at an international level and is designed to add dramatic, language and interpretative skills to refine the students' existing talents.

IN THE CLASSROOM


There is a strong emphasis on one to one coaching throughout the course.

  • Singers will explore different styles and periods of opera and ART SONG
  • The course emphasizes the importance of working as part of an ensemble
  • The course accelerates the development of young singers’ performing skills and increases their repertoire
  • Students will develop greater vocal and physical stamina as the number of hours they are required to sing each day will be gradually increased
  • The course includes stagecraft, acting and movement sessions. 

FROM PAGE TO STAGE


Singers are offered concerts and opera roles which are designed to stretch them as artists and to explore, through performing in front of live audiences, the information acquired in the classroom. If a singer is well prepared “one performance is worth ten lessons”

INTERNATIONAL MASTER CLASSES
