Love Songs in Spanish
Description
Would you like to improve your Spanish? Are you a sucker for soul-baring verses of love, loss and sentimentality? Do you long to grow more comfortable in your singing voice and to develop an ear for harmony? In this course we will learn a repertoire of classic love songs from across Latin America. We’ll go over the pronunciation and meanings of lyrics, melodies and even some harmony vocal choices - all in a fun and relaxed setting. By the end of six weeks you will have learned 5 or 6 songs in a variety of genres including bolero, ranchera, cumbia, vallenato, huayno, vals peruano and more. You will also discover a framework for reinforcing and building upon your language skills through song. Lyrics and recordings will be provided.
