Ich habe den Austausch und die freundschaftliche Beziehung, die sich mit den Dozenten entwickelte, sowie die Masterclasses und Konzerte mit Weltklassemusikern sehr genossen.
Andreas W., Double bass
Chanda Rule hat es verstanden uns mit „Power and Love“ zu lenken und Emotionen und Gewicht in ihre Gospellieder zu legen. Ich habe durch sie viel Vertrauen in mein Singen bekommen.
