The Performing Arts Faculty recently held two engaging incursions featuring music industry professionals from the musical theatre realm and commercial music scene.

The Vocal Workshop (pictured above and below) was run by Vicky Jacobs, founder of Glee Club Melbourne. Vicky introduced our students to skills and techniques that enable singers to switch between singing styles which were then applied to singing in the large ensemble on the day. Students’ sight-reading skills and natural ability to harmonise were on full display.

Rhythm section players were audience to well-known producers, performers and composers Phil Turcio on keys and MLMC staff member Emilio Kormanic on guitar in one half of the band 'The Outernet'. Students witnessed an impressive performance of a fusion of styles and improvisation, then participated in both an entertaining and insightful Q&A session about pursuing a career pathway in music.

We thank our guests for their time and education of our Performing Arts students.
