Singalong: Disney (Ages 4-6) Wednesdays 4:15 PM – 5:00 PM (SPRING SESSION)
This class is our voice and singing focused class. In this class we will use Disney songs from Disney movies to learn how to sing and practice vocal techniques. We will learn how to breathe and use our breath for singing; we will also do many different vocal warmups and scales to practice our pitches, hearing and repeating notes, and hearing and repeating rhythms. We will also start basic musical theory knowledge and how to read sheet music. We will use basic movements to support our vocal training and memorization of lyrics. All classes take place at The Children’s Theatre of Cincinnati (4015 Red Bank Rd.)
