Summer School for the Solo Voice wraps up this weekend at Third Avenue United Church in North Battleford. Running through to July 15, the program is celebrating its 20th anniversary. Open to singers, choristers, accompanists, and choral conductors of all levels and ages, the program also offers free entertainment to the public. Monday evening featured a concert by school founder contralto Lisa Hornung accompanied by Robert Hall, a member of this year’s faculty. Another member of faculty, soprano Casey Peden, was featured at Monday’s concert as well. Guitarist Carson Froelich, who travelled from Quill Plains to attend SSSV, performed a solo and accompanied Hornung. Summer School for the Solo Voice began as a small local program with three teachers and 12 children, and has blossomed into an international music school with over 15 instructors and 85-100 students. The program includes opportunities for students to perform, with student recitals and a musical theatre gala. See www.summerschoolforthesolovoice.com for recital times and dates.
