Singer, Actress, Voice Teacher

Roy Hart Voice Teacher since 2015

For me, this is integrative voice work bridging body, emotion, imagination, and musicality, all in service to the performer’s artistic journey and personal development. We take creative risks by suspending ourselves in moments of vocal conflict and doubt. In doing so we can open unexpected possibilities and connect with where the sound wants to go, beyond what we think we want from our voices. In this way we can learn to value the whole of our human instrument and what our expressive voice has to offer, leading us to sing generously with authenticity, pleasure, and purpose.
