Voice Recital Hour
I probably spelled basically everyone's name wrong
Madison Black - "The Color of Your Eyes": Fantastic diction, the words were really easy to understand. Lower sustained notes could use some more support. Most high notes were fantastic, but a few did not have the focus they needed.
Olivia Call - "Happy to Keep this Dinner Warm": Did a great job with the humor. Confidence and support could really help bring out a more clear character into the song.
Sadie Carlson - "Somewher Over the Rainbow" Really strong start. Great sustained notes and vibrato. Some of the higher notes got a little bit nasally, and could really be helped by openess.
Lauren C - "God Help the Outcasts": Really great lower voice, but it is often held back by a lack of support and suboptimal mouth shaping. When she really gets into the climax of the piece she really starts rocking it.
Archer Dame - "Left Behind" The very start could be stronger; having a focused breath could really help some of the entrances. Very rich, beautiful tone. Mostly good transitions between falsetto and chest voice, with a few standouts. The highest part of the song could use a little more workshopping.
Tina A- (I missed the title of this song) The character she put into this piece is so much fun to watch, without being distracting at all. We can really tell you are into this piece. Some of the lower notes are swallowed and there is a bit of breathiness.
Brynlee Downs- "With You" There is a loss of focus and some breathiness in the quieter parts of the song. They still need to be energized. Facial expressions and the character you put into the song are on point. Sustained higher notes are beautiful and pure, although one did go a bit sharp, which is something to watch out for. I can see a lot of neck tension. Great contrast between the climax of the song and the following quiet segment. Meter lost some times
Tanner Doyle - "Out There" Quieter parts need to still have energy and focus. Could use better breath support. Great job with the words on the faster passages. The crescendo was fantastic, he really filled it with energy. Lots of jaw tension.
Lily G- "What I Did For Love" Really rich lower range, though it is a tad breathy. Watch intonatinon. A beautiful portrayal of the song. Louder sustained notes need more support so they don't fall off. Keep the focus and energy in the quiet notes.
Hamah Hakes- "The Cloak, the Boat, and the Shoes" Sound needs to be more open. The vowel was a bit pinched at times. Great consonants. Very pretty song.
Kinley Hess- "Little Girls" Love choosing a bold character at the start and staying in it. Dynamics are great. Great focus to the higher voice, some of the lower chest voice could have used more focus.
Emily Hill - "On My Own" Really great quality to the voice, very rich. Some of the vowels are ruining the sound. Transition to head voice could use a bit of work, it is losing resonance and focus.
Cassie Ingles - "Stupid With Love" Tension in the throat, needs better engagement in her core. Great job having fun with song. Great job hitting all the notes on the fast part that is jumping around.
Annica Kropf - "Someone Somewhere" Beautiful tone and great support. I may be wrong, but it seems like there is too much vibrato on some parts that is somewhat forced. Amazing job on the high notes. There was a little bit of throat tension on a couple of parts, but I was very impressed that for the most part you were very relaxed.
