Calling all singers and beatboxers! Join HKYAF’s a cappella group RAW and let your voice be heard at Standard Chartered Arts in the Park 2020 this November!    A cappella celebrates one of the most powerful creative instruments we have – the human voice. RAW brings together passionate young singers to work with experienced singing coach Astrid Lui and create music that showcases the rich range of sounds that the unaccompanied voice can produce. Exploring the art of intonation, rhythm, harmonising, blending and staging, the team will learn to perform a mix of musical styles, including jazz, pop and classics.   Interested singers and beatboxers are invited to submit application forms and audition videos by 13 July 2020 (instructions below). Selected singers and beatboxers will have their first performance at Standard Chartered Arts in the Park 2020. Participants are required to attend all rehearsals and performances.
