Third of eight programmes on making music in a modern rock band.
Synth Pop and How to Sing Presenters
Deirdre Cartwright (guitar) Alastair Gavin (keyboards) Geoff Nicholls (drums) and Henry Thomas (bass) look at a style which relies almost exclusively on synthesiser technology. They explain the basics of one-handed keyboard technique and show that scales, chords and inversions can be fun. Also featured: vocal techniques, breath control, how to protect the voice, and working with microphones and PA systems.
