Congratulations - and thanks for 3 great years!

The 3rd generation of Authorized CVT Teachers are today among the best singing teachers in the world with the ability to train and demonstrate all sounds the human voice can make. They all have their individual area of specialisation in style etc, and with a large network of fellow CVT- and CVI teachers they form an extremely versatile group.

These great singers and wonderful people has been part of CVI since January 2007, and some even since the opening in 2005. Friendships has developed in the group and between the group and CVI staff. Even though we will see each other again at different occasions the regular visits here at CVI will be deeply missed. Thanks for three great years!

3-year Singer/Teacher Diploma Course

The 3-year education starting in 2010 has been met with overwhelming interest by highly qualified applicants. We have now accepted singers/teachers from 12 countries (Norway, Germany, Holland, Finland, Denmark, Sweden, Switzerland, Iceland, Poland, Belgium, Austria and Egypt).

Please note: There are very few spaces left for the groups starting in March 2010, so now is the time to sign up. The next 3-year education is scheduled to start August 2011.

If you are, or are planning to be, working as a singing teacher on the highest level, this is the course for you. The number of different sounds and styles singers expect teachers to master is growing day by day, and so is the demand for singing teachers who masters Complete Vocal Technique. CVT is at the forefront as the most up-to-date, efficient, practical and useful set of tools available, and still developing with increased focus on scientific research and several new language versions of the book in preparation in addition to the new German and Finnish version. An authorized CVT teacher has to be able to teach, as well as demonstrate, all sounds the human voice can make, and to become one requires hard work.

Follow the 3-year course and experience:
• a big development in your own singing
• the ability to work with ALL sounds the human voice can make
• the ability to demonstrate ALL sounds the human voice can make
• the ability to repair up to 90% of apparently hoarse voices in a single session (emergency aid)
•that teaching gets much less straining, as the special CVT pedagogy puts the responsibility on the singer with well laid out step by step guides for almost every request
• to be part of an international network of more than 100 highly skilled singers and teachers from various countries and with all kinds of musical backgrounds, who all use the same terminology and therefore efficiently can exchange tips, tricks and singers...

The 3-year courses takes place in Copenhagen. 18 seminars of 4 days each, spread over 3 years. New groups beginning in January & March 2010.

Price: First year: € 5.270, second year: € 5.405, third year: € 5.535.
