A hit of 2013, contemporary singing’s most youthful and glamorous doyenne, Jane Manning OBE returns to celebrate Tête à Tête: The Opera Festival King’s Cross 2014 by sight reading and discussing a selection of brand new works with Pop-up-opera MD James Young. If you would like to submit a score (for soprano and piano, under 5 minutes) please visit http://www.tete-a-tete.org.uk/janes-contemporary-clinic-2/. For an idea of how the event may run, watch the video from last year here: http://www.tete-a-tete.org.uk/janes-contemporary-clinic/. Submission Guidelines: Pieces, excerpts or fragments for solo soprano or soprano and piano. Short is good: time is limited! Normal lyric soprano range (not above high C) but with low extension to G below treble clef. Any well-known language. Be aware that very complex notation systems and an abundance of unfamiliar symbols will render the piece unsuitable for this clinic. Be aware that this clinic is primarily to discuss vocal writing and extended techniques rather than work on complex ensemble problems. As Jane will be utilising her legendary sight reading skills, please make sure that your score is exceptionally clear and not too small! Pay attention especially to the readability of the text and its placement to get the most out of this marvellous opportunity. |
