Worcestershire Creative Arts Festival (WCAF) is bringing together a trio of acclaimed vocal experts for a free day of seminars and workshops exploring traditional singing techniques and their relevance to every vocal style, from classical to rock, pop, and musical theatre. 

Alison Mary Sutton, Bryan Husband and Sarah Stone will lead the full-day ‘Elevate Your Singing’ event on Thursday 29 October, which will explore a range of singing techniques to help attendees perform successfully across all musical styles.

A music examiner, he regularly adjudicates at competitive music festivals around the country and abroad.
