This rigorous approach to tuning the "total instrument" is rooted in various avant-garde techniques common to theatre training, but unique to the world of classical music. The film follows a group of singers - both student and professional - through the entire course, where they are instructed in Yoga, movement, visualization, conducting, acting and, of course, given traditional vocal coaching. The singers are also taught to improvise arias in a manner not unlike the scat approach used by jazz vocalists.[2] References1. ^http://imdb.com/title/tt0831324/ 2. ^IndieWire online article about Mays' film SING*ularity, then still under the working title of OperaWorks.
