Singing talents and advanced singers whose goal is to be soloists in a smaller setting are invited. The instructors will teach in individual lessons and in plenum the songs and arias brought by the participants. In the plenum, Stephan Kohlenberg, a singer but also trained on the piano, will accompany.

Each year there is one compulsory piece. Both the solo and choral parts corresponding to the vocal range should be prepared for the course.
