Singing concept taught by Henry
Mr902's lesson with Henry Gardner covered vocal placement, vowel exercises for a more open sound, and an introduction to belting techniques. They analyzed songs like "Fall to Pieces," "Hate Me," and "Thank You" to explore emotional connection and projection in singing. Mr902 was assigned exercises to practice vowel sounds with varying projection levels and to choose a song with a comfortable belting part for next week's session.
