Moving From Silent to Singing

When I was in fifth grade, my classroom teacher told me I should "mouth the words" rather than sing with the class. For years after that, I was convinced I had a voice that nobody wanted to hear. And even though I loved to sing, I kept it mostly to myself.

Do you feel that way about your voice? If you do, you’re not alone. I’ve helped lots of students go from silent to singing, and this time I want to share the reflections and questions I’ve collected that can help you start to think of yourself as a person who sings.

Let’s talk about:

• Why you want to sing.
• What kind of music you want to sing.
• How moving from silent to singing might change you as a person.  
• The resources and support you take with you as you step into being a singer.

Wherever you are on the journey from silent to singing, I’d love to know if this was helpful! Don’t hesitate to reach out via email to letters@mvmusik.com.
