Welcome to my newest class that specifically focus on teaching students how to sing Musical Theater songs with skill! As both a musical theater lover, performer, and voice teacher, I am so excited about offering this class to students who are:

1. Wanting to learn how to sing some of their favorite musical theater songs
2. Seeking to learn how to belt, mix, and or hit higher notes better for specific songs
3. Auditioning for school and community musicals
4. Preparing for competitions
5. Needing personal assistance with music from a production they are in 

Musical theater requires a significant amount of polished skills, as the vocalist will likely be moving and acting while also needing to clearly annunciate, and project appropriately.  Additionally, musical theater singers need to be able to easily adapt their vocal technique to meet the genre and tone their character needs to have, which changes from show to show.  There's a big difference in how one would sing Maria's songs from "The Sound of Music", versus Wednesday Adam's songs in "The Adam's Family" or even Ariel's songs in "The Little Mermaid".  However it is possible to train the voice to be versatile within it's range. 

When you student enrolls in this course they will be working on two opposite songs.  They can choose from the long list I have below, or they can pick their own song(s).  I do however require sheet music, so if they choose to pick their own song they will need to upload the music they have for it.  ( Music can also be purchased at www.musicnotes.com) 


*Below are songs I own sheet music too and have accompaniment tracks to, and or can send a link to a YouTube karaoke track that matches the sheet music / key practiced etc.  Students can choose two of these or provide their own sheet music for a song they are learning.  Sheet music for any song can be purchased at musicnotes.com

*Make-Up Lessons* I give one make up lesson per 6 week session if an emergency arises, sickness occurs, or one lesson needs to be re-scheduled due to a conflict. However if I am not notified, log in and do not receive communication from student or student's family after 10 minutes of waiting, I will log out and a make up lesson will not be guaranteed. 

**Devices To Use* Students need to be at a computer desktop, laptop, or stationary iPad to take this course.  I cannot properly teach students who log in on a phone as we would not be able to utilize sheet music, powerpoint slides, or the best audio settings via a phone. 

****Voice Lesson Environment* It is vital to have a space where students can hear, have good internet connection, and not feel insecure or embarrassed while singing out.  A quiet space where they can sit or stand in a relaxed manner will improve their learning experience greatly.  I will NOT teach students in a noisy public environment - no exceptions.  If a student logs in moving around and holding their iPad while: in the car, on a train, on a boat, in a shopping center, at a salon, at a party etc...I will let them know they need to be in a proper environment for lessons and if that cannot happen within the first ten minutes then we end the lesson and I send virtual homework instead.
