Classical Vocal Performance: Phantom of the Opera
Ages 13–18
Step into the hauntingly beautiful world of The Phantom of the Opera as we train in the vocal techniques, storytelling, and emotional depth needed for classical musical theater performance.
This advanced teen vocal class will utilize music from Phantom of the Opera to develop healthy and powerful vocal technique, dramatic musical interpretation, breath support, resonance, vocal stamina, harmony work, and the ability to sustain emotionally connected storytelling through demanding material.
Throughout the year, students will begin building the foundational skills needed to tackle the vocal demands of CYT Phoenix’s spring production of Les Misérables. What better way to prepare for the soaring, classical style of Les Mis than through one of musical theater’s most iconic and vocally challenging scores?
Students will work on:

• Classical and legit vocal technique
• Breath control and vocal stamina
• Healthy belt vs. head voice placement
• Emotional storytelling through song
• Musical phrasing and dynamics
• Ensemble harmony and blend
• Character-driven vocal performance

This class is designed for teens ready to be challenged artistically and vocally while growing in confidence, technique, and performance quality. Whether you dream of singing soaring soprano lines, rich tenor ballads, or emotionally charged ensemble pieces, this class will help equip you to bring powerful musical storytelling to life.
