Learning to Sing

Singing is giving melody to your words when speaking cannot express the emotion you’re looking to convey. Think of that moment when you related to a song that explains how you felt or carried you to a place where you felt safe and understood. Now take a moment and imagine being to able to sing that song through your own abilities… Learn to sing beyond the “oohs” and “ahhs” or the “do-re-mi’s”. Learn to sing from the heart for pure personal enjoyment or to share that enjoyment on the big stage. Through Arcadia’s very diversified faculty of vocal instructors, all genres are taught, staying true to their identity and style. Explore your voice and engage in one of Arcadia’s many performance opportunities like Examinations (RCM/Arcadia), Band Program or Community events. Through performances, you will discover your voice and bring greater meaning to who you are as a vocalist.

Vocal Core Program

The Vocal Core program focuses on developing a students’ technique and musicianship. By focusing on major technical and theoretical concepts, this program will equip the student with a classical technique that can be applied to any genre.

Throughout this program, students will have the opportunity to progress in a structured curriculum by participating in Arcadia and RCM examinations that focus on musical skills, theory, and technique. The instructor will work with the student to prepare pieces that are appropriate for their voice type.

In addition, these experiences will prepare singers for audition scenarios.

By combining the study of classical technique and repertoire with musical theatre repertoire, the student’s voice will develop in a healthy manner. Ultimately, the Vocal Core program aims to produce well rounded singers with a developed and solid technique.

Vocal Contemporary Program

Every student has a voice, and those that wish to find it need look no further than our Contemporary Program. This program will explore what variety of music suits a student’s sound the most, while developing and refining their musical knowledge. In this program, students will have one on one lessons with an instructor geared towards their needs as a developing voice. Lessons will range from broad concepts such as breath control and rhythm, to diction and pitch correction. These intricately laid out concepts will help our students grow from those foundations all while a student can explore their favorite songs and artists!

With a cooperative base to build upon between student and instructor, lessons will be balanced with what the student wants to learn with what they need to learn. With an emphasis on preparing for performances and creating confidence in those settings, the program will aim to assist the student in bridging the gap between their aspirations and their vocal knowledge. From there students can participate in a wide range of events, competitions, and concerts facilitated by Arcadia Academy of Music!
