Lessons

Lessons in voice or guitar, by Maria Gillard.

Voice Lessons

A natural approach to singing based on Bel Canto principles of singing. Bel Canto meands "beautiful voice" and began in the Italian schools of opera study. Relaxation of the vocal apparatus, as well as listening and breathing techniques are examined. We sing with our whole bodies and set the voice free!

This method of singing can be used with any style of singing and will give the student a sense of what their true voice is.

Guitar Lessons

For beginning and intermediate players who are interested in learning strumming and picking patterns, note and/or tab reading, and guitar theory. This is also for singers who want to learn to accompany themselves. Styles include folk, jazz, swing chords, beginning classical, and blues.
