Student and Tutor focused on vocal technique, practicing warm-ups, legato lines, and addressing issues with pitch and vocal placement. Key concepts like passaggios, glottal onsets, and specific techniques like the "apple bite" and "doo" vowel modification were introduced and applied to the song "What I've Been Looking For." The Student's homework involves continuing to practice the "doo" feeling for forward vocal placement.

The Student and Tutor engaged in a singing lesson, working on various warm-up exercises to improve vocal control, breath management, and navigation of the passaggio. They focused on techniques for larynx lowering, tongue placement, and achieving smooth vocal transitions, which were then applied to a song. The Tutor and Student also discussed continuing work on the current song or selecting a new one, and future lessons will aim to solidify individual vocal coordinations.

The Student and Tutor engaged in a singing lesson, focusing on vocal warm-ups, breath control, and specific exercises for chest voice engagement, resonance, and vocal transitions.
