NATS members and friends are invited to submit proposals for all sessions to be presented at the Northwest Regional Conference in Portland, OR, Oct 27-29, 2017. All proposals MUST be submitted online or by e-mail. Click HERE to get started.
The topic, 21st Century Voice Pedagogy: New and Improved Tools for Teachers, opens us to many exciting and enlightening options. Proposals of a presentation, a class/mini-workshop, or a discussion group are appropriate. Including audience participation is expected. Proposals related to the following topics are particularly encouraged:
Cultural inclusivity
Song/Composers
Voice Science and Studio Technology
All Repertoire and Techniques
Pedagogy for All Ages of Students
Instructions Apply on this online form. The following items will be required as part of the application process:
Name and e-mail of one active NATS member to provide an electronic letter of support for the presentation
A PDF document of a narrative describing the session in detail (2-page maximum)
Contact information for lead presenter and bios for all presenters involved
The standard screen/mic/projector package and upright piano will be provided. Sound playback will be through the conference room speakers. As a non-profit with a tight budget - trying to keep the registration price as low as possible - we are unable to give free registration to our presenters. We will also not be able to compensate presenters. We regret this is necessary and hope you understand.
