Weekend Vocal Workout 2012

Do you have a good voice? Not sure what to do next? Want to improve your musical and vocal skills? Ready to explore and develop your potential? Then you need the Weekend Vocal Workout 2012 at the Royal Academy of Music.

Whatever your musical background, if you’re 16 or over you can apply to take part in our seventh annual vocal workout. This weekend aims to improve your ‘hard’ musical skills — rhythm, pitch, ensemble singing and more — through creative work together. You’ll have a chance to explore music theatre, gospel, rock & pop and jazz singing, as well as the opportunity to perform in a masterclass.

The weekend will be run by voice expert Mary King and supported by other top vocal professionals. The cost is £120 for the weekend — bursaries will be available.

Applications for this year's Weekend Vocal Workout are now closed.
