What you can learn with me

It's about who you are

You want to sing, and singing is about more than just voice. It's about breathing, posture, your body, your response to the music – the whole of you. It's about who you are.

Good open singing is the basis for all the differing styles. Thinking about and working on all these areas will help you, whatever your choice of music – giving your enthusiasm and feeling for the words their chance to reach your audience.

Above all, your voice is your own personal musical instrument! Only you have your voice. Only you can discover and pursue its potential.

No obligation!

Give me a ring or send me an email and we can fix a meeting.

 

Vocal technique

Breathing, posture, finding your own true sound, phrasing, choosing your material, using and possibly extending your natural range – these are some of the technical aspects of singing that can be worked on and improved.

Selecting and presenting your material

Choosing the right piece, interpreting your material, and bringing your own understanding of it to the listener; finding a way to harness your confidence to your abilities, so that both you and the listener gain something from your singing!

Sight-reading

Improving your basic understanding of music theory. I can assist in these areas if you feel you'd like to take them further.

Performance

I can offer you coaching in order to build up your skills at performing in front of an audience. If you enjoy and feel involved in what you're singing, then your audience will.
