| Workshops Overview The Winter Edition 2011 workshops are designed to build on one another over the entire three-week period, but of course it's also possible to take individual workshops. PLEASE NOTE: Improvisation 1 is prerequisite to Improvisation 2, unless you participated in Winter Edition 2009 or 2010, and Estill Voice Training™ 1 is prerequisite to Estill Voice Training™ 2, unless you have completed Estill Voice Training™ 1 somewhere else. WEEK ONE January 23 – 25 at: Ottmar Gerster Musikschule (Karl-Liebknecht-Str. 1) Harmony & Melody with Tcha Limberger & Alan Bern Intensive, practical work on developing harmonic & melodic skill. & Estill Voice Training™ 1 with Tom Burke A ground-breaking approach to describing what voices can do and powerful exercises that allow voices to realize their full potential independent of style. PLEASE NOTE: because Harmony & Melody and Estill Voice Training™ 1 take place at the same time, it is not possible to participate in both.
