Cantorial coaches concentrate on enriching the semester topic’s repertoire, of the students and deepening the musical interpretation of ed compositions. Coaching lessons are an integral part of the vocal training for singers and they are given as individual lessons. They are distinguished from voice lessons in that they do not deal with vocal techniques, but with the song repertoire and its art of performance. The teacher works with the student on the music that the student is required to sing, guiding the student into all the intricacies that render the performance professional, artistic and exciting. Cantorial Coaching lessons concentrate on traditional synagogue chants, artistic cantorial recitatives, and songs, which are related to the repertoire that is studied in class during the semester. In addition, the coaching teacher works with the student on the music that he/she needs for the services while officiating as student-cantor. During the coaching lessons, the emphasis is made on understanding the sacred texts, their liturgical function and their religious and emotional meaning. The coach guides the student in the proper way of singing the repertoire according to the tradition of the Jewish cantorial style and encourages the students to find his/her individual expression for each liturgical piece of music.
