NY is so much fun! I'm having a great time! I have lots of updates for you and will be posting tons of stuff once I get back to NM, because the internet here is soooo slow and I'm hardly in my hotel room.
Daily Practice Session
Technical Concepts - Warm up with my vocal cd. mixing and releasing throat, jaw. focusing on a dopey sound
Minutes - 20
Repertoire - Ran through Calm from Ordinary Days and my key of "I'm Alive" from Next to Normal
Minutes – 11
Successes – I'm alive is a really great key now and I'm having a bunch of fun with it. Calm is really also perfected and is one of my favorite pieces.
Areas for improvement – There are odd breaks in I'm alive that still need to be worked for a lower voice. since the originally the song is so high some parts of the song are a bit strange now and need adjustment
Notes: Not a pianist in town (NY) is willing to play Calm. It's too hard to sight read. Not a good audition piece all round.
