Description

This workshop is part of our annual Arts Week celebration, a creative experience unlike any other. Immerse yourself in this class each morning, and then choose from among a variety of unique community arts projects in the afternoons. Learn more about Arts Week—and join the fun! 

This Arts Week workshop is eligible for Tiered Pricing.

Ensemble Singing presents an exhilarating opportunity to work with one of the most celebrated vocal ensembles in the country. Together and in small groups led by members of The Western Wind, we sing a cappella music ranging from chants, rounds, and improvisations to Renaissance, Romantic, folk, spirituals, and contemporary.

The vocal ensemble can be a paradigm for an ideal society in which everyone has an equal voice. By honoring each others’ perceptions and communicating with sensitivity and tact, we create a warm, safe, and joyous community in which we can experience the deep feelings that music evokes.

Ensemble Singing is for singers who can carry a tune and match pitch. Pre-existing singing groups are welcome.

Tiered Pricing

At Omega, we believe that the benefits of a holistic education should be available to everyone. We also recognize that what is affordable for some will not be for all. We are now offering Tiered Pricing* on select programs to help meet the varying financial needs of our community.

On programs where Tiered Pricing is available, select the price that is appropriate for you. This program works on an honor system. Keep in mind that the highest price reflects the cost of the workshop and allows Omega to sustain itself, whereas the lower prices cover only a portion of those costs.

Tier 1: $425 (Register as you normally would for this pricing.)
This is the true cost of your workshop. Choosing this price helps Omega continue to retain world-class teachers and sustain classroom facilities.

Tier 2: $350 (Enter TIER 2 in the Promotional Code Box when you register.)
This is our partially subsidized price for those with temporary or minor financial need.

Tier 3: $275 (Enter TIER 3 in the Promotional Code Box when you register.)
This is our heavily subsidized price for those in need of deeper financial assistance.

*Tiered Pricing is subject to change and cannot be combined with other discounts.
