Trusted Alliance Virtual Master Classes

In each master class, 3-6 singers will have the opportunity to sing for 15-20 minutes each for Maestro Basney, who will then offer feedback, suggestions and strategy. Participating singers can then put their feedback and skills into practice. Interested singers can also sign up as Auditors, who will not sing during the master class.

Participating singers are encouraged to sing with piano tracks but may sing a cappella if they prefer. Singers will be contacted by Maestro Basney to request their repertoire choice at least 72 hours before the class begins.

​

Auditing or singing in a virtual master class means not having to drive to New York City or to Chicago to attend.  Maestro Basney points out the moments in the aria where you can and should lead, how you can make the conductor’s work easier, and models different conducting styles.  Your new skills will give you an edge at your next audition.
