Shaping The Stage
Song In Schools
Vocal Arts DC proudly presents Shaping the Stage: Song in Schools, a dynamic and engaging education program designed to bring the beauty and history of classical song directly into your classroom. This program features live performances by professional singers from the local DMV area, creating a unique and memorable experience for your students.
Live Performance
- Local professional singers will perform three to six songs in various languages, representing a wide range of musical traditions. Translations of the texts are provided to ensure students fully understand the meaning behind the music.
Behind The Music
- Beyond the performances, the singer will share the historical background and context of each piece. They’ll dive into the text, exploring themes, emotions, and storytelling in song. Students will also learn valuable insights into vocal technique, the process of learning music, and the skills necessary to perform at a high level.

This in-house enhancement to our curriculum is invaluable and we hope to continue this partnership for many years to come!”
