Within today's lesson we were being filmed to record our rehearsal progress and lesson for our assignment.
We started off the lesson as per usual performing vocal excercises to warm up our vocals, to make sure we improve our vocals, and not damage them. Part of why we do the excercises is to expand our vocal range, and improve our breathing using the diaphragm whilst singing.
We expanded our vocal range by doing a warm uay p of 'Hallelujah' and 'Ave Maria'. I found this warm up quite fun, and it does tend to improve my vocal range, both high and low tones.
We then rehearsing the new songs we had learnt last week, teaking at them and remebering lyrics.
I would say after today's rehearsal sway is our strongest song within the class, seeing as our whole class knows it, and it is quite upbeat, happy, and very jazz style. The best part about all the songs is that we can create our own choreography, and really enjoy what jazz is all about. Arnold has volunteered to start the choreography for sway, as so did I, Rebecca, and Catherine. We will start researching how people would of danced to Jazz styled music.
I feel my targets for next week are:
- Research into jazz dance.
- Stay as focused as possible within singing lessons.
