About this Event
About this Workshop:
Duets are the most common song form in a musical improv show, and yet far too often when we sing a duet, we don't take advantage of the opportunities our singing partner provides.
In this workshop, voice coach & Knockoff Broadway's Jessica Neighbor will help performers explore the craft of the musical improv duet by learning how to actively play off a partner through melody and counter-melody, vocal dynamics, and musical heightening.
Students will practice using body language, contrast, and musical variation to build connected, memorable duet moments in real time and leave with actionable tools that you can immediately apply to improvised duets, ensemble work, and your own musical projects. Let's duet!
Date, Time & Location: This two-and-a-half-hour workshop will take place on Sunday, April 19 from 2:00pm to 4:30pm at the Endgames Improv training center at 2989 Mission St, San Francisco.
Intermediate/Advanced Students Welcome: This workshop is open to those who have studied or performed musical improv at the intermediate or advanced level.
