My Philosophy of Voice Teaching:
Every voice student is different. Some students are gifted with a well placed natural voice, while others have some obstacles to overcome. Because of this, it is important that we treat each student as an individual, with different expectations for each voice.
I strongly believe that exercises and vocalises in the primary lessons are an important part of building the voice and developing good vocal technique. Once we have developed the technical aspects of the voice, we can then apply that technique to songs.
My goal for all my students is to become musicians with voice as their primary instruments, and not simply "singers". We will work on solfeggio, sight singing, music theory, rhythm training, ear training, and more to help them develop as vocalists, musicians, and performers.
