New To Voice Lessons? Here’s What To Expect
At Schaumburg Music Academy, we welcome all music learners, from total beginners to advanced students preparing for university or conservatory study. We understand that for those who are new to music lessons or voice lessons, getting started can seem a little daunting. Here’s what to expect if you’re new to singing.
What Books Will I Need?
Our teachers use a variety of voice curricula out of the many available today. In or before a student’s first lesson at Schaumburg Music Academy, the teacher will provide a list of voice books to purchase.
What Is The Best Age To Start Voice Lessons?
One of the most beautiful aspects of the human singing voice is that your instrument grows and changes with age and experience. Because vocal instruction requires a certain level of development and understanding, we recommend beginning no younger than age six.
Teaching a child to sing is much different than teaching an adult to sing, both in terms of technique and methodology. Our teachers are experienced at crafting lesson content and repertoire specific to each age group. Young children greatly benefit from vocal instruction by discovering their own healthy, imitation-free sound. Voice lessons are also a great way for a person of any age to practice poise and confidence.
For adult and adolescent students, instruction can be much more in-depth as you learn about what is physically involved in good vocal production. At this stage, students may select more challenging repertoire as they continue refining their technique.
If you want to sing, our instructors would love to work with you. Let us meet you where you are and assist you on your musical journey.
