Keep Boys Singing

Saturday 15th October 2011

A training day for ALL who work anywhere with boys aged 11 - 14 years at that tricky time when voices are changing and it's not quite so "cool" to sing.

10.00a.m. - 3.00p.m.
at
Edge Hill University, Ormskirk, Lancashire
Department of Education

Led by Professor Martin Ashley

Martin Ashley has made a special study of the boy's changing voice. Take this great opportunity to ask questions, observe a practical session and swap ideas on suitable repertoire.

abcd North West is launching a NW Boys' singing group later this year. This training day will give you the skills you need to be part of this exciting new project.

Special rate of just £10 for the day
FREE TO ABCD MEMBERS

Applications to Mavis Fletcher, 6 Sunnyhill, Fulwood, Preston PR2 9BF. Cheques payable to abcd

Or email to mavis@enterpriseco.demon.co.uk and arrange payment by Mastercard or Visa on 01772 704834

With thanks to Edge Hill University, Department of Education, for making this event possible.
