I need girls with personality, who can sing and can move. The girls need to be flexible and ready to work hard. As this is not going to be an easy ride!

The rehearsals will include expert voice tuition and choreography plus harmony work. There will be a photo shoot, our own website and much more!

Good Morning Vocaltutor Fans,

What a great night, last night at Moldgreen. I performed, as well as the lovely Aura and Tom White.

Strictly Musicals & Rock Musicals Update

Dear Singers & Parents,

Here is an update on Rock Musicals & Strictly Musicals, including the Running order below.

DVD & PHOTOGRAPHER

Unfortunately due to low numbers for Rock Musicals, I have had to cancel the professional DVD company, Photographer and also the compares – Jonny & Nat from E4 Music.

If you have booked photos or a DVD this money will be refunded to you. This means you will be able to film and take photographs throughout the performance (without flash) providing I get a copy. x

ROCK MUSICALS

As mentioned above unfortunately the uptake for the training week, has not been as expected. The week has been advertised since last November, and a major mail out went out to 65 schools, and 65 music shops, venues and theatre/schools. It has been advertised online via Facebook, Google and more.

I refuse to cancel the week, and will ensure a great time will be had by all, although I may need to amend the songs, meaning we may not do everything in the pack. There are still places left for Rock Musicals. If you want to sign up contact me asap.

Just to remind you the show is at the Live Theatre on the Saturday at 2pm.
Rehearsals begin at the venue at 10am. The show should be finished by 5:30 – 6pm, including the interval of approximately 20 mins.

WORKSHOPS

They will be two extra singing workshops taught by myself on the Wednesday 6- 8 (older girls & boys & Thursday 5:30 – 7:30 (younger girls and boys) night for Hazel Rayson dancers. These sessions are open to all so if you wish to take part, please let Helen Proud know at Hazel Raysons via her e-mail: wardrobemistress@hotmail.co.uk. This has been added for those who are unable to do rock musicals due to work etc.

Belting Explained in London – Vocal Process

 On April 17 you can discover the belter in you, or ask all those niggling questions about belt (when, where, how, why and what?). We’ll be exploring when belting isn’t belting, how to move from a classical sound to a belt setup, different types of belting and when to use them, and identifying belt ranges (and how to fake them) in different musical styles. London, April 17 2010.

 This course ALWAYS sells out, and we’ve been running them since 1997, so…

book now to unleash your belt monster.
