The Cure For Pitchiness (Is Not An App)

A bedrock goal of singing is to make sure all the right notes are coming out of your mouth. But apps that claim to tell you whether you’re “in tune” can actually do more harm than good.

In this episode, I explain

• What a voice-tuning app is actually measuring (spoiler alert: it’s not really your voice).
• How trying to match pitch with an app can introduce counter-productive tension into your body.
• The kind of help that can help you to hit more right notes, and to let go of the shame of missing some.
• How my new group class will help you develop a warm-up routine to get your unique, whole-body instrument in tune.

If you'd like to join the waitlist for my group class, email me at letters@mvmusik.com with GROUP in the subject line. I'll make sure you receive all the registration information as soon as it's ready.
