Adam Roebuck Studios Offers
2 Types of Singing Instruction
|
|
|
|
What type of technique do I teach? My technique consists of a series of reflexive exercises, based on the work
of Ingo Titze, to connect the singers voice (muscle) with their breath. Once these concepts become automatic
the singer is able to produce sounds that can be classified as "belt", "mix", or "legit". These exercises also focus
on the areas of articulation, pronunciation, breathing, posture, tone, blending registers, resonance/power,
volume, endurance, range, and audiation. I do not teach a "cookie cutter" approach and custom tailor my
teaching to match your learning style. I also specialize in breathing for the singer, actor, and or professional
speaker. I work with singers who are currently in, or in the past, have gone through many types of vocal rehab
with a licensed ENT (ear, nose & throat) doctor or a speech therapist. I can incorporate your current rehab
prescription into the session.
|
What styles of singing do my clients sing? Musical theater/Broadway, opera/legic/classical, reggae, reggaeton,
popera, pop, rock, jazz, reggae, R&B, country, and even heavy metal!
|
|
What type of equipment do I have available to use during instruction? I send all clients home with a recording
of the session on CD to practice with. Many times sessions include work with VAMS (vocal acoustic
monitors). I also use a computer spectrogram to allow clients to see their voice as real time picture as well as a
computer pitch counter for clients with pitch matching problems.

What happens during the session?
|
|
A 30 minute singing lesson consists of 10 to 15
minute warmup with the rest of the session
working on practical application to a song.
I've played the piano for 26 years so I can
accompany you with whatever song you bring
in. Most people do a mix of a singing lesson
and vocal coaching.
|
|
The 10 week group class alternates between a 'technique
week" and a song week. During technique week, each of the
6 participants are taken through Adam's series of reflexive
exercises, both individually and as a group. During song
week, participants work on applying these exercise concepts
to a section of a song.
