Vocal Course

Vocal Course is a graded tool that can be used in group settings or as an individual practice method book for any age and level. The placement test material should be used to place each student in the appropriate level based on his/her ability. Final evaluations tests are provided for use as required. These should be completed and passed before moving on to the next level. Not everyone will progress at the same pace. It is advised to repeat or come back to a lesson so as to reinforce certain concepts. 

In addition, the Vocal Course is designed as a companion to the Music Theory course. Students should utilize the music theory books to help advance their knowledge of music making.
