All Vocal Week participants will gather after lunch for an hour of group singing, stories (and some important announcements).
Instructor Bio
Flawn Williams started singing with his parents and sister around their South Carolina home and on road trips in their ’54 Ford. Other influences included church choirs, novelty records, and the “Folk Revival” of the 1960s. He’s led workshops at Augusta since 1982 in shape note singing, improvisation, doo-wop, and other topics from his wide-ranging repertoire. Since 1997, Flawn has coordinated Augusta’s Vocal Week. He also has performed in many Washington Revels productions in the DC area. Flawn’s singing credits include harmony vocals on CDs by Bryan Bowers, John McCutcheon, Ginny Hawker & Kay Justice, Ann Porcella, Pete Kennedy, and others, as well as holiday specials for NPR’s “All Things Considered.” He also produced Cathy Fink’s solo album “The Leading Role,” and Ginny Hawker & Kay Justice’s duo album “Signs and Wonders.” He recently wrapped up a decade of teaching music recording and audio journalism at Georgetown University, and now handles audio mastering for Malcolm Gladwell’s “Revisionist History” and other podcast projects.
