BinG! Harmony College 2026

“Speech Level Singing is the refusal to reach.” - SLS trains you not to reach for high pitches which means the larynx stays at a speech level position, allowing the vocal cords to adjust as the pitches go up or down without disconnecting. That means the cords stay connected, so you have no breaks, cracks, breathiness or falsetto no matter how high or low you sing. There’s no interruption in the tone quality because the voice is balanced. This class will explore the science of why this approach is great for barbershop and how it allows us to find performances that transcend technique and find pure emotion.

Participants will be able to minimize the impact of their passaggio and make more sound with less work.
