Following on from my Singing for All Abilities: Find Your Unique Voice course (though it is not necessary to take the basic course as we go over the basics at the start of the course, including breathing, projection, anchoring, diction, range exercises, cool downs. pitching, posture and lightening/darkening sound), this course goes into some very advanced vocal techniques such as

• vocal fry

• whistle register

• glottal onsets

• working with studio condenser mics

• movement and vocalisation

• an in depth look at voice qualities (the sounds associated with various genres of music)

• retraction (singing without constriction)

• improvisation

• bridging the break in the passagio (blending chest voice and head voice)

We then move on to look at building your artist persona and your brand by covering

• stagecraft and performance

• creating an artist persona

• recording studio techniques

After that we look at the business side of professional singing:

• recording contracts

• your online presence

• getting live bookings

• getting airplay

• getting press

• sourcing the right musical material

• recording a demo to showcase your work to the industry

At the end of this course, you will be ready to face the music industry.

As well as the videos of the course, you will get personal, supportive feedback from me on any mp3s or videos of your singing you send me.

I'm really looking forward to being part of your musical journey. Enroll now for the next incredible chapter of your singing career.
