This summer, youths who love western pop music are in for a treat! A vocal training course named ‘The Summer of Love’ has been introduced at the Unwind School of Music in Gandhi Nagar, Adyar and Kilpauk.
This is the first time such a course is being conducted in Chennai.
At the course, participants get to sing to the tunes of Beatles, Deep Purple, Carpenters, Abba and much more! This makes it ‘contemporary yet classical’ and ‘traditional yet funky’. This is a unique way to attract children and teenagers to encourage them to develop their vocal skills.
The first course started on April 14 and focuses on the music of Abba, Beatles and Carpenters.
Reeba Cherain from Ooty and Tejas Ingle form UK are the teachers in charge. Thomas, who is in charge of the Kilpauk branch said that such music aims at choral training of the voice.
Joseph Raj who is in charge of the Adyar branch said, “We have got a strong response to the course and a fresh batch of students will commerce ever Monday, the last batch being on May 1o". The course is open for people above the age of 8. It is a 12-day course with a maximum of 17 students per session. The classes start at 5.30 p.m. and go on till 7 p. m, Friday being a holiday (for the Adyar branch). The fee for these classes is Rs.2500. There will also be a musical show on May 30 and 31.
