Helen Porter

Join the University of Plymouth Choral Society at St Paul's Church, Yelverton, under the direction of Helen Porter, for a fun-filled day of choral singing with music accompaniment from Mary Mazur-Park. Understand and solve issues, such as why intonation slips, how to avoid pushing high notes, sing effectively in chest register, sing long notes without running out of breath, and avoid vocal fatigue. Be prepared for hard work, non-stop singing and a lot of fun! This year Helen celebrates 30 years of coaching singers, choirs and vocal ensembles. Her career began in the theatre as a composer and musical director, coaching actors in a cappella singing. She has been vocal coach on all Helen Chadwick Song Theatre productions since 2010, including at the Royal National Theatre (2015). As a singer/pianist she is currently touring with her new solo show ‘Unexpected Song’. She is also the music director of the Big Jazz Choir in Calstock. Workshop: 10:00 – 16:00; informal performance 17:00 – 17:30. Cost £17 - please email jan.fairview@gmail.com for an application form.
