'Learn to Sing' and Ring those Chords with a New, Free Program Chorus Launches New Singing Program for Men

White Plains, N.Y. (PRWEB) April 27, 2008 -- The award-winning Westchester Chordsmen Chorus announced today a new and free program, Learn to Sing, for men in Westchester county who have a song in their heart and can carry a tune, but who have always wanted to sing better, and with more confidence.

The program is open to men ages 16 and older; singing experience is helpful but not required. And, you don't have to read music either. Learn to Sing features ten hours of free voice development taught by the Chordsmen director and associate directors. The two-hour classes start Monday, May 5, 2008, and for five consecutive weeks, participants will learn the fundamentals of singing and harmony. For the last session and graduation, students will perform with the award-winning Westchester Chordsmen.

During those five weeks, aspiring singers will learn two songs, practicing and performing them individually and in quartets. Lessons will consist of warm-up sessions, instruction, break-out groups for learning and fine-tuning musical parts. Class materials include free music, instructional hand-outs and free practice audio files on CDs. In addition, participants will have a Chordsmen member as a mentor for support and guidance.

"We love to sing and we want to share our passion with the community," said Keith Harris, Westchester Chordsmen director. "This is our way to say thank you for 55 years of support and offer this terrific opportunity for men who love to sing."
