Hello Singers!


I am a singing teacher (and professional singer - 3 CDs, Southbank Centre, Ronnie Scott's Club, Royal Albert Hall, etc) living in East Dulwich and I have space for a couple more students. My own training was classical technique with English National Opera soloist Kenneth Woollam, and jazz styling with British jazz singer Claire Martin OBE followed by the British Voice Association approved course Fundamentals of the Singing Voice (Pts 1 & 2). My experience with Ken Woollam, when I believed I had a voice in there somewhere but didn't know how to access it, has informed my approach to teaching. If you know how to practise properly and healthily, and are prepared to put in the time, it's possible for everyone to develop their singing voice. My lessons are usually half technique, half repertoire/performance and I encourage students to have a goal towards which we work - be it overcoming a particular vocal difficulty or getting a set of songs together for performance, recording or pleasure. I also teach sight-singing, separately from voice production. I enjoy hearing my students make progress and expand their vocal horizons. It's not an overnight thing, and usually takes a number of months to put together support, breathing and posture, the three blocks on which good voice production is built, but practice makes perfect definitely applies in this instance. I look forward to hearing from anyone who's interested in working on their voice!

    • What would I do about cyclists?  The failed Tory manfesto commitment to train all kids was an excellent proposal.  Public information campaigns aimed at all road users, rather than singling some out, to more considerately share the road, as TfL have done, is welcome too. As for crunching vehicles.  I'd extend this to illegal ebikes, illegal e-scoooters (I think some local authorities have done this with the latter) but before that I would (a) legislate that the delivery companies move away from zero hours contracts to permanent employees and take responsibility for their training, vehicles and behaviour on the road.   More expensive takeaways are a price worth paying for safer roads and proper terms and conditions (b) legislate to register all illegal e-bikes and scooters so that when they are found on the road the retailer takes a hit, and clamp down on any grey markets.  If you buy an e scooter say from Halfords this comes with a disclaimer that it can only be used on private land with the owner's permission.
    • I know a lot of experts in the field and getting a franchise was a license to print money, that is why Virgin were so happy to spend lots of dosh challenging government ten years ago when they lost the West Coast franchise.  This will not be overnight, rather than when the franchise has come to the end. Government had previously taking over the operator of last resort when some TOCs screwed up. Good, at last some clear blue water between the parties.  Tories said they were going to do a halfway house, but I've not noticed.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_British_Railways   : "On 19 October 2022, Transport Secretary Anne-Marie Trevelyan announced that the Transport Bill which would have set up GBR would not go ahead in the current parliamentary session.[15] In February 2023, Transport Secretary Mark Harper re-affirmed the government's commitment to GBR and rail reform.[16] The 2023 King's speech announced the progression of a draft Rail Reform Bill which would enable the establishment of GBR, although it has not been timetabled in the Parliamentary programme.[5] The Transport Secretary Mark Harper later told the Transport Select Committee that the legislation was unlikely to reach Royal Assent within the 2023-2024 parliamentary session.[17]"
    • Can't help thinking that regardless of whether Joe wanted to be interviewed, the 'story' that Southwark News wanted to write just got a lot less interesting with 'tyre shop replaced with ... tyre shop'! 
    • Labour are proposing to nationalise the railways, (passenger trains but not fright)  Whilst it removes them from shareholders control, and potential profit chasing, is it workable or will it end up costing tax payers more in the long run?  On paper the idea is interesting but does it also need the profitable freight arm included to help reduce fares,?
