Let's Sing in Italian! - by CWEAStarts 13 February, Thursday, 12:30pm til 1:30pm.
8 sessions, $60 incl GST, see webpage for CWEA membership discount. https://www.cwea.org.nz/courses/1443-lets-sing-in-italian-deen-coulson/ Does the sound of Volare make you swoon? Does Bocelli's rendition of Con Te Partirò bring a tear to the eye? Does the uplifting refrain of “Jamme, Jamme” from Funiculì, Funiculà lift the spirits? Consider joining the lively “Singing in Italian” group at WEA. This welcoming group, guided by experienced pianist and choral director Deen Coulson, requires no prior knowledge of the Italian language. Italian-speaking members are available to assist with pronunciation and diction while melodies are explored under Deen's direction. The group embraces a collaborative spirit, generously sharing skills and encouraging song suggestions, as long as the sheet music is provided. With a relaxed and approachable atmosphere, no operatic experience is necessary—just a willingness to participate and let the music transport you to Italy for an hour. |
