Technique is the term used to describe the application of methods and
skills to produce an end result, in this case it is for the purposes of
learning how to sing or improve vocal ability. The teaching of
technique takes on many forms, often depending on the ethos and beliefs
of the teacher, which is why there is so much controversy and discussion
on the subject.
Our philosopy is to encourage the student to explore as many
techniques as possible to discover methods that best suit the
individuals personality and voice.
The purpose of learning techniques is to provide insights on
methods that people have found to be helpful in improving or enhancing
their natural talents. The singer should aim to recognise both unhealthy
and healthy methods of singing and incorporate healthy techniques into
their practise sessions until they become second nature rather than
attempt to focus purely on technique during performance.
This section provides articles and links to external articles
containing ideas and techniques used to explore the talents and
capabilities of the performer. You may not always agree with some of the
principles, ideas or theories expressed, however we provide them in an
effort to encourage further research, exploration of your own natural
abilities and discussion with your tutor.
