Improve Your Speaking Voice

Some of us depend of our voices to make our living.  Teachers, clergy, sales, counselors, trial lawyers, and corporate trainers sometimes must speak for several hours a day.  When one is placing these kinds of demands on the voice, it is imperative to care for it well!  

Lessons might address

  • How to retrain harmful habits
  • Projecting your voice without strain
  • Strategies for conserving your voice
  • How to find the right health professionals in case of vocal injury
  • When to call and cancel and when to push through

Sight Singing Demystified Course

Have you always wanted to look at a piece of music and know what it sounds like?

Would you like to learn music faster and easier?

Do you want to ace the sight-singing portion of your next audition?

Do you need to be able to teach yourself a piece of music?

If you answered yes to any of these questions, this class is for you!

To many people, music notation can seem mysterious and confusing.  But with the right guidance, it can become as easy as reading words!  We start from the very beginning and learn to recognize at a glance the most common patterns in music.  You might be surprised at how fast you can begin to recognize them!  Because this is a class setting, you’ll be singing with others rather than by yourself, which really takes the pressure off.  

Some of you who already read music pretty well may notice that the skill gets rusty when you don’t use it for a bit.  If you need to brush up your skills for an upcoming audition, or just want to sharpen your skills again, this is class is a perfect review!
