Participants can expect to come out of this workshop with an understanding of how to sing Tanko Bushi and/or Hokkai Bon Uta and/or Soma Bon Uta on vocals.
The workshop will be divided into two segments. In the first segment, we will cover how to warm up your vocal cords. In the second segment, we will learn an arrangement for vocals. There will be two vocal parts - one for beginner and one for intermediate - so that participants can make a choice depending on the performance levels.
Prerequisites: Please listen to our three focus songs with the following links.
Music score and lyrics will be available for participants.
