Would you like to improve your SPANISH? Are you a sucker for
soul-baring verses of love, loss and sentimentality? Do you long to
grow more comfortable in your singing voice and to develop an ear for
harmony? In this course we will learn a repertoire of classic love
SONGS FROM ACROSS LATIN AMERICA. We’ll go over the pronunciation and
meanings of lyrics, melodies and harmony vocal choices in a fun and
relaxed setting. By the end of six weeks you will have learned 6 to 7
SONGS IN A VARIETY OF GENRES INCLUDING BOLERO, polka, ranchera and

building upon your language skills through song. Lyrics and recordings
will be provided. CHRIS REID
