Vaccai Summer 2021 - Bel Canto Boot Camp

Twelve weeks of guided practice beginning June 7

Welcome to Bel Canto Boot Camp! Our signature course teaches the elements of bel canto singing based on Vaccai’s Metodo di canto. We use the trusted Vaccai method in an innovative way to refine each singerâ€™s knowledge and practice of:

legato
registration
phrasing and dynamics

ornamentation and variation
historical notation practices
Italian diction and poetic forms
