I was entirely able to bypass the line at the bakery this morning. I saved about 30 minutes. Score!

So last night I had my first voice lesson. I got the strong impression that the teacher is looking forward to working with an adult (most of the students at ANMS are kids) and with someone who has had enough vocal experience (and training from my conductor) that I already understand good posture and breathing, even if I haven't completely internalized what I've been taught.

It is that internalization, of course, that I am hoping to develop by working one-on-one with a teacher who can act as a coach, watching me do it and pointing out flaws in my technique. Based on our first lesson, I think that this is going to work out very well. Details... )

I used my Zoom H4 to record the lesson and the recording is quite clear. I've been consistently quite pleased with this device's ease of use and quality of results.

We'll be starting with a book of basic exercises. The first one has phrases that move primarily by step, the second by thirds, the third by fourths, and so on. The lyrics are Italian, of course, because Italian vowels are pure.

I'm getting ready to disappear from the internet for a few days. I expect to resurface on Saturday night although don't count on me until sometime Sunday.

To any and all whom I have disappointed or injured in any way in the past year, please accept my apologies. And to any who may have disappointed or injured me in any way, please be assured that you have my forgiveness.

And to all, may you be written and sealed for a year of health, security, sweetness, and the realization of your dreams. שנה טובה ומתוקה!
