Where is the tonic accent placed? What should I do with silent e's? Should "r "s be rolled or not? Poetic writing gives form to the art of lyricism. And understanding it is crucial to defending the French repertoire and its subtleties. By providing tools for understanding texts, the lyric diction course gives singers a better grasp of the delicacy of their language, so that they can deliver an interpretation informed by meaning. Through lectures, readings, discussions, practical exercises and the writing of sonnets and vaudevilles, the performers tackle a wide range of questions of a grammatical, prosodic, poetic, phonetic and historical nature.
