In this workshop Giles Underwood, Director of Music at University College, Oxford, untangles what it means when we say someone has great stage presence, charisma, flair and musicality. Giles will be working with Faculty of Music soloists and ensembles, workshopping repertoire they are currently working on to build a practical toolkit to put into their practice, lift their confidence and make performing feel empowering. 

All are welcome to come along and watch!
