Singing concept taught by Krissan
During a recent lesson, Ma. Krissan Tan collaborated with Caroline on various vocal techniques, specifically targeting chest voice participation, larynx control, and healthy vocal attacks. Caroline actively practiced blending her vocal registers and applied these concepts to the song 'Someday,' with the goal of improving her chest voice engagement and vocal onset. As homework, Caroline's tutor instructed her to prepare a list of audition songs that would effectively demonstrate her full vocal capabilities, encompassing both her low and high notes.

Ma. Krissan Tan worked with an individual from Pinnacle Peak on vocal techniques, focusing on breath support, laryngeal function, and chest participation to improve power and resonance in their singing of "Fight Song." The learner practiced vocal exercises and applied the techniques to the song, focusing on declamation and engaging oblique muscles. For the next lesson, they were asked to practice "Fight Song" with attention to onset and body awareness, and they plan to work on "A Million Dreams."
