Listening and actually hearing are 2 different things. Have you ever had a conversation with someone and then realized that you had no idea what they said? Yes, it’s possible to listen without really hearing the other person. It’s the same with music. You can listen without really hearing the music. I was interviewed by a radio station in FL that holds a huge karaoke jam. They played ...

Talking with a student yesterday during her lesson about using breath release to keep the voice healthy, I had to mention Audra McDonald as a great example. Here’s what I mean: when you sing a word that begins with a vowel, such as “I”, which you do quite often, the tendency is to start the “I” in the throat.

SING! Singing with the freedom and absolute abandon of a child is the best therapy there is. The sympathetic vibrations you create with your voice tickle your innards. Think of the extra...

Is there a great voice stuck inside of you? You know it’s there, but just don’t know how to let it out? That is how I felt for years! Even though I was a professional singer, I knew there was so much more inside of me that I couldn’t figure out how to release out to the world.
