UNIVERSITY CITY, SHARJAH \u2013 American University of Sharjah\u2019s Performing Arts Program will hold a virtual Student Recital on April 15 to display the applied voice students\u2019 vocal abilities, as instructed by Dr. Sherri Weiler. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
In an interview on April 8, Weiler explained her plan to release a virtual voice concert where students will sing a collection of songs dating as far back as 1612 and as recent as 2019. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Weiler went on to say that hosting online voice classes has been a challenge; however, her students have been able to adapt to produce the highest quality of work they can.

Private voice student Karim Hodroj-Remmel said in an interview on April 13 that students receive vocal pieces based on their ability to sing. For the Spring 2021 semester, his assigned works included a German song, as he is a native speaker of the language. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
He said his song, Auf dem Rhein<\/em> by Robert Schumann, was especially significant to him as the song is about the Rhine River in Germany, and he grew up living next to the same river.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Hodroj-Remmel said he recorded his songs through an Audio Technica microphone, fed into an audio-digital converter. They were then edited on Adobe Audition, where he lines up his singing with the backing track provided by Dukic. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The event will premiere on the Performing Arts Program\u2019s YouTube channel on April 15. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" By Abdul Nauman UNIVERSITY CITY, SHARJAH \u2013 American University of Sharjah\u2019s Performing Arts Program will hold a virtual Student Recital on April 15 to display the applied voice students\u2019 vocal abilities, as instructed by Dr. Sherri Weiler.
