My schedule for the school year is filling up rapidly -
I am already running into the usual puzzle -challenges of a crowded schedule. How to consolidate family schedules with work? I had to make some corrections on my Fall-program. If you were looking into it, please look again! The September Saturday classes may need to move to the last week of September (29th)
Nice problem to have, in the end... Thank you all for your support!
I'm looking forward to a productive, wholesome and harmonious Semester.
Sound Integrity Singing Initiative offers the "Werbeck method" (School of Uncovering the Voice) as foundation and inspiration for individual lessons, group lessons and workshops for people of all ages.

I) Introduction to the
School of Uncovering the Voice
September 29th
9:00AM – 12:30PM
If the School of Uncovering the Voice is new to you, this class is
strongly recommended as a foundation to any of the other classes!
With beautiful exercises
designed to discover and cultivate the subtleties and potential capacities of
the singing voice, we will take first steps to explore this modern, wholistic
schooling path with its depth and esoteric implications, developed by Walborg
Werbeck Swaerdstroem. All levels of
skill are welcome!
II) Techniques to
teaching and leading songs
September 29th 2:00PM –5:30PM
An intensive tutorial for
teachers who use (or would like to use) more music and singing in the
classroom and in group gatherings. Basic musical skills (note-reading, ability
to matching pitch) are recommended for this session. Optional: bring soprano or
Alto recorders, if you have them.
This class will be
repeated/continued in December.
III) Fine-tuning the
listening
October 20th 2:00PM to 5:30PM
This class is
recommended for people who love to sing but have trouble holding a melody
against a harmony or singing in tune. We will get to know and recognize the
patterns of scales and intervals and practice our musical memory and melody-
imitation.
We will work on ear-training
and harmonizing with beautiful exercises from the School of Uncovering the
Voice and the application of the practiced techniques to easily accessible songs
and rounds.
IV ) Building Social
Awareness and Compassion through Singing
November 17th
9:00AM – 12:30PM
Group exercises and
games to awaken heightened awareness and appreciation of others as well as
ourselves; Round- and part-singing as part of a social healing process. These
wonderful, simple, musical activities are invaluable mood-setters for any
conference or meeting, class-bonding or as community ice-breaker. Come ready to
move, listen and dare.
II a) Techniques to
teaching and leading songs
December 8th
9:00AM – 12:30PM
(Repetition/Continuation
of the September Session)
An intensive tutorial
for teachers who use (or would like to use) singing in the classroom and in group
gatherings. Basic musical skills (note reading, ability to matching pitch) are
recommended for this session. Optional: bring soprano or Alto recorders, if you
have them.
