Finding Your Sound (of Music) as a Singer

Finding Your Sound (of Music) as a Singer Suzy S. Being a professional musician is a lifelong learning process. Even with years of experience, the best musicians seek out ways to improve at all times, such as by attending festivals and training programs. This summer, Philadelphia teacher Claire B. attended the AlpenKammerMusik Festival in Austria, exactly for this reason. Check out her story here Hi! I’m Claire and I teach voice lessons with TakeLessons. When new people ask me what I do and I say “I’m an opera singer” or “I sing classical music,” they nearly always ask, “Oh, where can I see you? Are you singing at the opera downtown?” That’s a tough question to answer. The thing is, even though I’m nearing 30 and have my Master’s degree, I’m not yet a full professional and I don’t have major singing jobs yet. Opera singers have to work their way up, and it’s a long haul. Most of us don’t have a fully developed voice until we are 32 or older, and that leaves us in limbo for a few years. Community theater, summer opera festivals, and training programs help us get experience as our voices settle and we perfect our singing. Working and studying in Europe is an option as well, since the audience is bigger for opera and there are more opportunities. I spent some time this August in Austria at an amazing chamber music festival and I wanted to share my experience with you. For two weeks, I spent about six to seven hours every day in rehearsal with other musicians and in solo practice, surrounded by the Austrian Alps. We were in Liesing, right next to the Tyrol (a.k.a. The Sound of Musics “The Hills are Alive” land!), and it was so small that they didn’t even have their own grocery store! The remoteness of the place let us really focus on our music assignments. Each morning, I’d get up early to go hike along the mountain road behind our rooms, and then have breakfast in the Gasthaus (guest-house, bed and breakfast). It was wonderful to be inspired every morning looking down on the valley and breathing in the morning mist. We used the Folk Music Academy building for our rehearsal space, and the hotel down the hill housed the performance area. I sang one piece by Ravel called Chansons madécasse (Madagascar songs) with piano, cello, and flute. It was so challenging, with tempo changes, random key shifts, and at times with me holding the piece together or singing totally alone. It’s not your usual classical piece with a full sound all the time, and it was such a good lesson on learning to trust your own ear while still keeping other totally sporadic parts in mind! We all came so far as a group in only 6 or 7 rehearsals. I also worked on song cycles by Schumann, Schubert, and a contemporary composer named Lori Laitman. The latter composer wrote a very moving piece using poetry by children in Theresienstadt, the model concentration camp in Czechoslovakia in World War II. There was a great emphasis on the text, and that set really helped me understand delivering a poem clearly and with meaning. Songs of any kind change when you mean every word. I wouldn’t trade my experience here for anything. I grew as a singer and performer, and I made great new friends as well as musical contacts on two continents! Hopefully all of us young professionals will benefit in the future from our time in Austria! Like this post?

Learning how to study

Learning how to study Watch This First!The video linked above is a great way to help students who may be having a hard time studying. I remember when I was younger I was one of the worst people I knew at studying. I'd always find myself distracted, looking out the window, or wanting to play video games. However as the video shows there are a great number of things one can do in order to effectively studying. The core concept behind the video is self-recognition. By this I mean the video stresses that in order to be the most effective at studying, somebody really has to know about themselves, most notably their shortcomings. Are you easily distracted by loud noise? Pick a quiet place to study. Always feeling hungry or bored when studying? Bring a snack with you before you start. Finding the words in your music to be distracting you? Pick music that doesn't have lyrics, like classical music. For myself I find it most effective when I sit in a quiet room, with some tea to sip on and some Mozart in the backgr ound. However that may not be true to everyone. The most important thing when it comes to studying is knowing what it is you have to do to make your studying the most effective.

During the process, questions arise and you look at some of the aspects of letter writing that give you the most trouble.You focus on improving by writing more letters, emails or other correspondence. At the end of the month, youve written 15 letters. Now go back and look at that first letter. Where have you improved? What do you know now that gave you such a hard time at the beginning? This can be just as motivating as seeing the scale go down!Create a single space dedicated to the new languageWhen youre trying to reach fluency in another language, learning can sometimes be sporadic. New words might pop up throughout the day or a question may arise during your commute. Put all the information on those scraps of paper or Post-its in one placeâ€"your notebook. Rewriting this information and  reorganizing your notes is a great way to move information into your long-term memory.Its also important to mention that if youre learning multiple languages (good for you!), then you need multiple notebooks. This will help with compartmentalizationâ€"so when your Portuguese notebook is out, youre only focused on it!It’s a place to practice new vocabulary, grammar and writingAlthough the work you do in your foreign language notebook will positively affect all areas of language learning, its a great place to specifically target essential writing skills. Written communication is just as important as oral communication, and to truly master a language you need to be able to write it.Have places in your notebook where you can address tricky grammar rules and where you can draft longer paragraphs utilizing new vocabulary and grammar. When you need to reference that rule again, its easily accessible!It’s tailored to youUnlike an app or online course where someone else has set up the lessons, you get to be your own teacher. By no means do you have to set up elaborate lesson plans, but you do get to set up the notebook in a way that works best for you.Are you an educator learning Spanish? You can have a place in your notebook dedicated to that vocabulary. Going to China for business? Think about what youll need to be successful. You might find that having a space for cultural and social norms is just as valuable as having an area for vocabulary.Well discuss this in more detail later on in the post, but the content of the notebook is completely up to you!

If youre at the beginning of your language-learning journey, a notebook will help you lay the foundation of your new skills.The more advanced learner might find their notebook with only a couple of sections dedicated to new vocabulary, grammar structures or more nuanced components of the target language. Thats the beauty of it! No matter where you are in your studies, you can use a notebook to your advantage.5 Tips to Tackle the Foreign Language Notebook and Keep Yourself Motivated1. Find the right notebook for youAs we talked about before, the beauty of keeping a foreign language notebook is how customizable it is. You choose what kind of notebook you want to use and set it up however youd like. Your language notebook can be as simple or complex as it needs to be. You can create it to have a strict design with lists or have a loose structure.Now you may be wondering, where do I find the time to set up and use a notebook for my foreign language?

Or, if you just want to give a language notebook a try but need a place to begin, you can find language worksheets on the internet and use your notebook as a place to house those.2. Divide your notebook into sections: vocabulary lists, grammar practice, writingBy dividing up your notebook into sections, youre designating spaces to focus on different goals and concepts. Having a space for vocabulary, grammar and writing practice is a good place to begin because theyre the fundamentals of language fluency.Keeping a list of vocabulary helps you track which words you struggle with and words youve memorized. You can create an alphabetical list or segment words by categories, such as food or telling time.Similarly, keeping a section for grammar concepts gives you something to refer to when you forget a specific structure, and a writing section is a great place to practice those vocabulary and grammar skills.How many pages youll want per section is up to you, but dividing a notebook into three equal sections is a good place to start. Use sticky tabs to divvy up the pages into these three main sections. Experiment with color codingâ€"differentiating top ics with color can be especially helpful to visual learners.After a while, or if you think you need room for more sections, you could add a space for more complex vocabulary lists or a thesaurus-like section where you list words with similar meanings, which can be helpful when writing.3.

Its like using different equipment at the gym, working different muscles makes you stronger overall. Writing creatively makes your language skills stronger, allowing you to use new vocabulary words and grammar.4. Write down goalsUse the notebook to write down goals for yourself in the target language.

What kind of writing do you want to do? What new words do you want to be able to use? Which grammar concepts do you need to master?Set up a series of goals, each one getting bigger or harder as you go along. For example, challenge yourself every couple of weeks to write for a longer period of time without using a dictionary. This way, youre forcing yourself to focus and challenging yourself to be imaginative with the language.5. Create a system to reward yourself when you reach a goalSet up a reward system for yourself. Since youre recording your goals, youll know when youve achieved them. Its important for you to recognize how far youve come!A reward  could be something as s imple and childish as fun stickers  or new stationary. Maybe youre keeping a list of foreign movies to watch in your notebook, so now would be a good time to reward yourself by watching one!Completing a goal and moving onto the next one means youre moving forward with using the language. It may not be as fun as seeing the scale go down, but its just as motivating!To sum it all up: Your individual language journey should be customized to you.A foreign language notebook is a practical and useful tool for the serious language learner to personalize their learning experience.So, go get one!And One More ThingFind motivation for your language learning creativity in FluentU.

Could Artificial Intelligence Threaten Human Existence

Could Artificial Intelligence Threaten Human Existence Artificial intelligence has always been an interesting subject to discuss especially among fiction writers. But now its becoming a part of our reality. Thousands of artificial intelligence applications have been used for years in almost every industry: scientific discovery, medical diagnosis, robot control, stock trading, remote sensing, and even toys. Stephen Hawking says that the development of full artificial intelligence could spell the end of the human race. But, a lot of scientist dont agree with him. They say artificial intelligence could damage society if and only it built or used incorrectly. Today, artificial intelligence systems have impressive, but still pretty narrow capabilities. And its hard to imagine what it might be like for computers to experience the world, to be creative, and to dream. I can only say that the future of the human race depends on us. How we approach the development and management of artificial intelligence will have far-reaching consequences. Thinking about the risks associated with emerging artificial intelligence technology is hard work. Let our Computer Science tutors help you to figure out all the pros and cons. And, of course, all our tutors are ready to give you the science help you need whether it studying for a science test, or finishing your science homework.

Brush up on your English grammar

Brush up on your English grammar English was taught very thoroughly in the distant past. However, by the time many of us went to school, the way that English language was taught began to change. Many schools placed less of an emphasis on correct grammar, choosing instead to allow pupils to express themselves without their commas in the right places. However a knowledge and effective execution of these principles can put you at a great advantage, and an English tutor can help provide you with these crucial tools that are so often overlooked elsewhere. Unfortunately, many people are very confused when it comes to English grammar. This has two main knock-on effects. Firstly, their own written English may seem sloppy. Secondly, they may be unable to help their own children with their English homework. A good command of English grammar can help you to communicate more effectively with people and can help you to appear more professional when writing to clients, colleagues and other people with whom you have dealings. Why not try the English Grammar Test? First Tutors has a range of tutors across the country who can help you brush up on your English grammar. Why not browse our site for one near you?

Pyrex Chemistry Kits

Pyrex Chemistry KitsPyrex Chemistry kits are a new addition to the home science labs. As you may know, it is common for students to own an ordinary lab tool for their science lab and then eventually change it for the special equipment they'll need in the future. Pyrex has long been known for its quality construction and great performance at a competitive price, and these kits help to make that even more noticeable.Pyrex Chemistry kits contain a real metal, not plastic, lid which is fairly easy to use. This material lets you keep the contents from vaporizing, allowing you to take a sample of liquid or solid, place it in the canister, and release it into a solution. It also helps to keep the contents from burning, keeping the contents intact and preventing deterioration. All you have to do is screw the lid on and leave it in a test tube.Pyrex Chemistry kits include plenty of components, such as a glass container, measuring cup, and a test tube. You can find instructions, a guide on how to use each component, and even a guide on cleaning all of the components before using them. After having used the kit for a few days, you should be able to use it with any home laboratory. As mentioned earlier, this is a great value for science labs.The label will indicate the quantity of chemical reactants you will need, which is relatively small. One thing to keep in mind is that Pyrex Chemistry kits do not include a test tube, so you will need to purchase a new one separately. When purchasing your test tube, make sure you buy one that fits your Pyrex kit. All of the components included in a kit, including the test tube, come with a written instruction manual.Pyrex Chemistry kits are known for their ability to stand up to extreme temperatures, including high pressure and high temperature. In fact, they have to withstand these conditions because some of the components have been deliberately engineered to have properties that allow them to withstand changes in temperature and pres sure. So even if you're taking a solution of hydrogen and oxygen with water, you can be sure that the container will not leak!Pyrex Chemistry kits have many other advantages as well. It allows you to control the pH level of the solution to make sure you are getting a balanced solution without changing the chemical makeup of the solutions you use in your experiments. It also provides a safe environment for test tubes and the contents of your test tubes.If you like to test chemicals, then these kits are perfect for you. Just keep in mind that they are sold at a competitive price, so it may not be as inexpensive as it seems.
