Throughout February and March the Linenhall will echo to the sound of adult voices being put through their paces by singing teacher and performer Anne Marie Gibbons. This course will take the form of an introduction to singing for adults. It is designed as a confidence-building exercise which will give those taking part the techniques and skills required to sing a song from beginning to end with self-assurance and expression. Anne Marie will coach participants in basic vocal techniques (such as breathing) while also helping them to overcome nervousness to put a song across. Plenty of fun along the way is guaranteed!!

Anne Marie Gibbons is a mezzo soprano. She studied at the DIT Conservatory of Music and Drama, Dublin and subsequently at the Royal Northern College of Music, Manchester. She was company principal at the English National Opera for three years, and has performed multiple operatic roles including among others Dorabella in Cosi Fan Tutte, Flora in La Traviata, Anna in The Trojans at Carthage and Pippo in La Gazza Ladra. She has an wide-ranging oratorio and concert repertoire, and has extensive experience as a singing teacher.

Sing Your Party Piece in Style takes place over eight Friday mornings commencing February 8th from 11.00am-1.00pm (continuing February continuing 15th, 22nd Feb, and 1st, 8th, 15th, 22nd & 29th March). Cost per head for the workshop series is €100. A willingness to perform in front of the group is required. There are twelve places available, and booking is ESSENTIAL.
