Voice Studies

Studies in Voice

  • Voice students have the opportunity to perform as soloists in solo recitals, group recitals and studio classes.
  • The large ensembles frequently feature student soloists on concert programs, tour programs and in the St. Olaf Orchestra’s annual Senior Soloists concert in May.
  • For voice primaries, St. Olaf offers course in solo vocal literature, lyric diction, acting for the lyric stage, and vocal pedagogy, which focus on methods of teaching and include opportunities to teach.
  • Instruction in voice for music majors and non-music majors is offered in private weekly half-hour or hour lessons or through voice class.
