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

Daniela Reyes Villa worked with Devory Perl on vocal techniques to reduce strain and improve vocal comfort while singing. They practiced exercises to balance head and chest voice, focusing on core support and proper vocal placement using the song "America." Devory was encouraged to record and analyze her vocal placement to identify and correct tension.

Daniela and Jahkeel dedicated their lesson to vocal exercises and song practice, aiming to bolster Jahkeel's vocal presence, resonance, and pronunciation. They honed techniques for blending head and chest voice to achieve stronger high notes, applying these skills to the songs 'Cheerleader' and 'Mary on a Cross.' As an assignment, Jahkeel was asked to listen to 'Mary on a Cross' to deepen his understanding of its vocal dynamics.

Daniela guided Emy through a singing lesson, concentrating on vocal techniques such as voice placement, resonance, and achieving dynamic contrast. Emy honed her skills by practicing exercises for vocal projection and meticulously worked on sections of the song "Rainwater," paying close attention to dynamics and emotional delivery. For their upcoming lesson, Emy's assignment includes practicing the power lift, voice placement, and contrast within "Rainwater."

Daniela guided an individual residing in Mordecai through vocal exercises, aiming to enhance their pitch and breath control. The lesson also focused on singing while playing guitar, specifically the song "Fix a Drink," where they identified and corrected issues with the chorus melody and chord transitions. For continued refinement, the learner will record themselves singing and playing the song. To accommodate Daniela's upcoming travel, they scheduled two lessons per week for the remainder of the month.

During a recent vocal lesson, Daniela and Kyle concentrated on vocal techniques, specifically pacing, tone, and vowel placement, using the song "Losing My Religion." Kyle engaged in exercises designed to improve his core support, vocal balance, and phrase direction. Daniela assigned the "radio game" as practice, and they made arrangements for future lessons based on Daniela's travel schedule.

Daniela and Jackie's piano lesson covered scales, chords, and hand posture, alongside playing "Roman Trumpets" and "Starlit Melody." Jackie received specific practice instructions: to use a metronome for her scales, focusing on identifying and correcting errors, and to learn the new song, "Starlit Melody," after watching a reference video.
