Travis Ploeger - Music Improv for Beginners (District Improv Festival Workshop)
This workshop will introduce improvisers to the basic skills of song improvisation. Topics to include recognizing and initiating songs in a structure, music theater technique, emotional integrity, and communication with the accompanist. While no previous musical improv experience is necessary, participants should be comfortable singing in public, and prior music theater or vocal experience (non-improv) is helpful.
