MUAP 3112 - Italian Diction

This course will broaden students’ understanding of Italian-language sounds as they are applied to both speech and classical singing. Students will learn to transcribe Italian with the International Phonetic Alphabet and learn its application to Italian-language Opera and Art Song. Frequent performances in the classroom setting will allow students to directly apply this knowledge to their performance craft.
