It's so easy to allow your stresses to spiral out of control and leave you confused, disorientated and unable to handle simple tasks. What's that got to do with singing?
Well, not only is music a well documented stress reliever, but relaxing into your singing will only make your singing voice stronger and more effective. Taking a deep breath is something that is often said to people to give them a moment to calm down from a stressful day, but how often do you need it for singing? Well the truth is, if you're not practicing your breathing techniques, you're doing yourself and your voice an injustice.We encourage all our singers, during their singing lessons in Edinburgh to use time wisely and to remember to be calm and present. See how a singing lesson or practice can benefit your health!

It’s a question that
we all ask our friends, ourselves and is a reason that we sometimes watch, with
baited breath, musical award shows, looking to find out who the industry deems
worth of the “best singer” accolade.
Sometimes we agree and sometimes we find it downright insulting.
Being able ...

claim a gift that has immortal brilliance. At the age of 48, her death has sent shockwaves through the
musical community, and with her demise, on the eve of the 54th
Annual Grammy Awards in Los Angeles, a melancholy force cuts through what is a
prominent event in the music ...
