At So i Heard Music, voice lessons are unlike any other.
Students are taught traditional techniques with the help of modern technology. Is the lesson a computer lesson? Absolutely not! So i Heard teaches voice students how to read music, in addition to proper singing technique and posture. Instructors follow the So i Heard Music Method of instruction, which focuses the educational approach on each student. Our instructors tailor a specific plan to each student so that lessons always are as exciting and as fun as possible.
While the approach is custom to each student, the weekly lessons usually do conform to an underlying structure. Within a typical lesson, students may encounter reading exercises, rhythmic exercises, sight-reading exercises, vocal warm-ups, and maybe even songwriting and music recording assignments! Yes, singers can write songs, too!
Beginner voice students usually start with vocal anatomy, followed by simple warm-ups, and soon move on to singing their favorite pop songs. Pop music keeps things fun while the student continues to work on their technique. Throughout this part of the process, teachers may record certain parts of the lesson, to be used for fun and to provide instant feedback.
Once your student reaches an intermediate level, as determined by their instructor, if near a physical location, they can apply to sing in our band program, which also opens up performance and recording opportunities. At this level, students can play shows, write and record their own songs, and become well-rounded musicians. It pays to practice!
Why So i Heard Music?
So i Heard Music is a music lesson company built around the philosophies and methods developed by life-long musician and teacher Sam Morgan, and his long-time friend and fellow musician Sean Killary. Sam’s approach to education is based on the idea that all students learn differently, and all instructors should be allowed to follow the energy and excitement of their students. If a student wants to learn pop music, that’s what they’re going to do! While allowed leeway to teach what the student wants to learn, instructors also work on traditional techniques in a way that keeps kids motivated and engaged. Quite simply, there is no better place for kids or adults to learn music, online, or in-person.
