Term One 2010

Posted on | February 10, 2010 | No Comments

Term one is off and running. All places are currently filled and I am enjoying listening to a few new voices, and working with continuing students from 2009. Congratulations to all year 12s on their course acceptances – it is always sad when student leave but exciting to see them continue on their leaning journey, fulfilling their dreams. 

One of the things I have noticed in my returning students is the summer break has meant a singing break. The breath flow is not doing what it once did,  the notes are maybe not as strong as they were last year. So it is exciting to hear, in the second week back, improvements already simply by sticking with some practice. Remember, you wouldn't expect to be able to play an instrument well after a break, or with very little instruction. The voice is the same. Give it some focused and attentive workouts and it will be up and running again. Warm up, do some voice function work, sing your songs, cool down. The basics never go out of fashion!
