2018-2019 Lesson 5 (4/2/2019)

Today for Vocal Technique, Maya and I practiced keeping her shoulders relaxed during inhales and exhales. We also talked about her “sigh/cry” sound, taking full breaths, and making sure that she doesn’t push her voice to a tiny place in the front of her mouth.

For music theory, I gave Maya some pages for sight singing, which I encouraged her to practice with solfege and conducting throughout the week. We are also doing a lot of interval ear training work. Maya is able to recognize minor 3rds, major 3rds, perfect 4th, and octaves!
