Maddie Malo provided Sean Hackeling with a singing lesson that covered breath control, vocal warm-ups, and song composition. Sean worked on an original song, focusing on melody creation and rhythmic variation, and received feedback on improving vocal intensity and tone. Sean was assigned homework to develop the melody for his song further and to practice daily vocal warm-ups, and they plan to work on "Autumn Leaves" in the next session.
