Singers
Forum Presents Master Class with Dick Gallagher
Singers
Forum (http://www.singersforum.org/)
will present a rare Master Class with award-winning composer and musical
director Dick Gallagher on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, February 7th
through 9th. "This Song's For You" is the first in a series of Master
Classes presented by Singers Forum this season. Upcoming classes will
be taught by vocal luminaries Tovah Feldshuh (April 5th &6th) and
Julie Wilson & Ron Cohn (May 2nd through 4th). All classes will take
place at Singers Forum's studios located at 39 West 19th Street, NYC.
"This Song's For You"
will consist of three intensive three-hour classes, focusing on personally
tailoring song to singer. Individual instruction with Mr. Gallagher
will include, on a one-by-one case basis, personal arrangements, acting
exercises and style and performance techniques. The class begins with
each student, accompanied by Mr. Gallagher at the piano, performing
his or her own song selection. The Master Class will then focus on
the process of customizing each song to create a perfect fit with
the singer. All students are present throughout the entire process,
having the opportunity to watch each performer tackle a song and make
it their own.
Dick Gallagher is an award-winning
composer and musical director. He has worked with, accompanied and
arranged for such talent as Patti LuPone, Mandy Patinkin, Rita Moreno,
Kevin Kline, Audra McDonald and Karen Mason, among many others.
