2023-2024 Catalog

THTR 356 Pop/Rock Performance

Students will learn the history and progression of Pop, Rock and R&B music ranging from the 1950s through today's popular artists. Students will learn how current events, social status and cultural acceptances actively affect storytelling through song. This knowledge, along with healthy Pop / Rock vocal technique training, are incorporated to help students rock what you got and perform any popular style of music authentically. Today, it is not only imperative for musical theatre artists to have a firm grasp on each genre of Pop / Rock, but approach their work fearlessly. The class will culminate in a final showcase with a full rock band and special guest artists. Additional lab fee applies.
