Vocal Performance Intensive
Don’t just learn the song. Build the performance.
Youth Vocal Performance Intensive
$425A focused, five-part performance experience designed to help young singers take one or two songs from “I know the song” to a fully prepared, confident performance.
Across four private lessons, students dig deeply into their chosen repertoire, working on vocal technique, breath support, phrasing, dynamics, lyric interpretation, character, emotional connection, stage presence, movement, microphone technique and performance confidence.
The intensive concludes with a Performance Masterclass, giving students the opportunity to apply their work in front of others, receive final feedback and build confidence under real performance pressure.
- 4 Private Lessons
- 1 Performance Masterclass
Adult Vocal Performance Intensive
$645A focused, five-part performance experience designed for singers and performers who want to take one or two pieces of repertoire and develop them into polished, intentional performances.
Across four private lessons, the work explores vocal technique, breath support, phrasing, dynamics, lyric study, character, point of view, emotional stakes, storytelling, stage presence, movement, microphone technique and the overall performance arc.
The intensive culminates in a Performance Masterclass, where participants present their finished piece in a live workshop setting and practise performing under real-world pressure.
- 4 Private Lessons
- 1 Performance Masterclass
What We Can Work On During the Intensive
- Lyric Study & Text Analysis: breaking down what the song is actually saying, key words and phrases, subtext, shifts in thought, and why each lyric matters.
- Character & Point of View: figuring out who you are in the song, who you’re speaking to, what has happened before the song begins, what you want from the other person, and what changes throughout the piece.
- Emotional Connection: finding truthful emotional stakes without simply trying to “act sad” or “act angry,” and connecting the lyrics to an intention that feels authentic and repeatable.
- Storytelling & Musical Interpretation: shaping phrasing, dynamics, pauses, emphasis, tempo and vocal choices around the story rather than just singing the notes correctly.
- Vocal Technique: tackling the specific technical challenges of the chosen repertoire so the performer can execute their choices consistently and healthily.
- Physical Performance & Stage Presence: movement, stillness, gestures, eye line, facial expression, confidence, audience connection, and making physical choices feel intentional.
- Performance Arc: making sure the song builds somewhere, from where it begins through the emotional or dramatic shift to where it lands.
- Polish & Repetition: running and refining the material until the vocal, acting, emotional and physical choices start working together naturally.
- Masterclass Performance: bringing the finished piece into the room, performing it in front of an audience, receiving final feedback and testing the work under actual performance pressure.
Don’t just learn the song. Build the performance.
