NATS 2021 Summer Workshop

It’s time to re-energize our teaching and expand our horizons by exploring inspiring and diverse repertoire together. We hope this music will “light the spark” of passion within you, and in turn, within your students.

July 8-10 - Virtual

Join us once again virtually where we’ll survey an exciting variety of vocal repertoire designed to expand your musical horizons and inspire your passion for performance. Sessions will feature works from under-represented areas such as Japanese, Afrikaans, and Brazilian Art Songs, 21st-Century Hybrid Works, and Black Women Composers, as well as engaging topics such as "Repertoire and Civic Engagement," "Amplifying BIPOC Voices in American Song," and much more! 

PLUS, two weeks post-workshop, attendees who register for the full workshop will have access to all sessions in the NATS Live Learning Center for six months! Great content, great value.
