Gaining Confidence to Sing and “Performing” Songs (Michael Black) |
||
| 29-31 October 2010 | Michael Black hails from a musical Dublin family and he grew up in a household where singing was a normal part of daily life. Both his parents were singers, as are his sisters and brothers (Mary, Frances, Shay and Martin). Now, the next generation of Black Family is bursting on to the scene with his nephews/nieces (Eoghan and Aoife Scott, Danny [The Coronas Band] and Rose O’Reilly) all becoming emerging stars in the music business. His three young daughters (and Shay’s daughter), ranging from 10-13yrs. of age, have all been performing (singing and dancing) since they were five or six. Michael borrows from the dictum of his brother Shay, which is, “if you can hum it you can sing it”. He will offer suggestions on how to encourage singing publicly and will talk and give examples on how to select and perform songs specifically for audiences. Topics include gaining confidence, choice of song, delivery, and identifying the appropriate setting for a particular song. O’Flaherty Irish Music Retreat |
