Blend classical training with other vocal styles for lessons that focus on expressive techniques

Daniela gave Kemunto a singing lesson, working on the song "Mr. Jailer" to shift her vocal style from operatic to pop/blues by focusing on vocal cord closure, chest voice, and lyrical interpretation. Kemunto practiced exercises to reduce airiness and connect with the song's emotional message. They scheduled the next session for Saturday at 11 a.m. and discussed Kemunto sending Daniela a Spotify playlist of potential songs for future lessons.

Daniela provided Atara with vocal coaching, targeting smoother vocal transitions and expanded range using exercises and Sia's "Unstoppable." They worked on breath control, vocal placement, and differentiating between head and mixed voice. Daniela will find a different song for Atara to practice with and Atara will practice and confirm the next lesson on Sunday.

Daniela coached Maria on vocal techniques to achieve a darker tone, reduce nasality, and improve breath control, using exercises like bubbles and vowel sounds. Maria practiced applying these techniques to a song, focusing on vocal placement and consistency. They discussed Maria's vulnerability and emotional connection to her voice, and Daniela encouraged her to continue using the practice journal.

Vocal coach Daniela is helping medical professional S. Williams, who is experiencing vocal strain, improve their singing technique on "Journey to the Past." The sessions focus on warm-up exercises, vowel placement, breath support, and achieving a centered, operatic sound while avoiding tension and a "cry sound." S. Williams is assigned practice focusing on these techniques.

Daniela and Kaleb worked on Kaleb's vocal technique, focusing on breath control, vocal stamina, and reducing neck tension while singing. Kaleb practiced exercises like lip trills, bubbles, and 'foo foo foo' and 'gag gaga' to improve support and clarity. Daniela advised Kaleb to see an otolaryngologist to address persistent neck tension and assigned exercises to practice, emphasizing self-monitoring for tension.

Daniela Reyes Villa coached Kyle Gillespie on singing techniques, including breath control, resonance, and pitch, using vocal exercises and applying them to a song. Kyle worked on eliminating nasal sounds, improving pacing, and adding emotional expression to his singing. Daniela assigned homework involving lyric analysis and practicing the song with a focus on breath control and musicality, and they rescheduled the next lesson for earlier in the week.
