Nicole Besa, Soprano
What is a normal voice lesson like?
Singing is a full-body workout. So we begin by warming up the body to prepare it for singing with stretches and other movement. Once we have found proper body alignment conducive to healthy singing, we go through a series of breathing and vocal excercises that help warm up the voice, continue to energize the the large and finer muscles used in singing, increase vocal stamina, and solidify good techniqe. After that, we take a look at your music, finding ways to implement the same sense of freedom and ease that we covered in the first half of your lesson through our warm ups. We also tackle the details in your music to get your pieces really polished, including learning how to read a score, gaining an understanding of musical style and form, working on characterization and context, and other details.
