Re: So confused about singing training

Thank you for all your helpful replies! Sorry for such a late response - lockdowns and Covid took over :( . Here's hoping for better singing opportunities for all our DCs in 2021....

Re: So confused about singing training

Hi Pandora, thanks! O:) this is so informative. Sounds like your DD is doing brilliantly. I am really glad to hear you have more than one teacher and also a group class - that's what my gut tells me DD needs right now but I thought maybe it was just me. Laughed at what you said about trad MT materia...

So confused about singing training

What is the best type of singing teacher / voice coach for our DCs? DD (14) has had lessons (classical and MT) on and off since the age of seven - more according to what she liked doing at the time rather than following any kind of training. She is now doing Grade 6 rock and pop, which I was hesitan...

Re: The Voice Kids

Thank you for your help, ACookie and Knic. I have asked VK for another date and will see what they say. Knic, congrats to your DD and sorry to hear she is apprehensive. FWIW I heard really positive things about the whole process last year from a friend of a friend. However, have heard much less posi...

Re: The Voice Kids

Thank you - I'll ask them. Would the other audition days be in different cities though? We're in the south east so if they offered us, say, Manchester instead then it's probably easier for us to just cancel our holiday plans for one day and attend the London audition.... Can't say I expected this, I...

Re: YMT Summer Camps

My DD did it last year and had an amazing time, made loads of friends and learned masses. The show they put together was of a really high standard too. I'd recommend it.

Re: Complete U turn!

So sorry to hear about this, Adrianna. The change of heart over performing arts is one thing - and people have made some really good comments about how you could tackle that. However, if he has also lost interest in other things that he used to enjoy then I would be worried because that could be a s...

Re: Imperium?

Just wanted to add: I have just seen a very bad (quite recent) review of them elsewhere on the internet...that they don't care about their clients... anybody with them / had experience of them who can say something different???

Imperium?

My daughter has been asked to self tape for Imperium. All new for us and just feeling our way! I have seen from previous posts that they seem nice but charge quite a high commission. Just wondered if anyone has any recent experience with them? We are looking at other agencies too. Thank you!!! :) :)
