Private Voice Lessons

          The voice is an instrument that is always with us and it's the very first instrument every person learns to use!  

          We offer Private Lessons for ages 13 and up and focus on the following foundations:


  • Mindset
          It's important for growing and established musicians (and established musicians) to have a growth mindset.  Singers should feel free to explore, experiment, and make mistakes on their journey to discover their own authentic sound.  This means they may have to let go of some preconceived notions about their voice and/or about singing in general.
  • Musicianship
         Singers who plan to pursue musical theater or a college conservatory need to be prepared with musical literacy: sight-singing, note reading, rhythm fluency, etc.  These are integral to developing the skills necessary for performing in the theater setting.

Singers who perform popular music (pop, hip-hop, gospel, etc) may or may not want to develop this skill.  It is helpful and encouraged for these singers, but not mandatory.

  • Vocalizing
     These are the technical exercises that build the mechanics of the singing voice, and the exercises will vary greatly from one singer to the next.  The goal of the exercises will remain the same no matter the singer: to allow free, easy singing that maximizes vocal range, volume and stamina while avoiding vocal fatigue and strain.
  • Repertoire/Performance
     All the groundwork for achieving technical and musical goals comes together in singing songs. We practice choosing appropriate music, learning the song, and performance techniques.

 

Music with Brandi takes great care with each voice student to protect the voice and train with proper technique for a lifetime of enjoyment as well as skill-building. We offer 30, 45, and 60 minute weekly private lessons.

For younger children, please consider our Discover, Learn and Grow Your Voice classes for ages 5-12.
