This week we talked about musical auditions and our recital. Right now - our first choice for both is "Popular". By auditions and our recital we'll have Tatum's performance all choreographed and everything. She'll be so awesome!
We vocalized on: humming, me-me, yah-yah, oh-ah
We worked on:
Today we moved into an even more natural place for Tatum by adding "breaks" throughout her song. By separating the words instead of stringing them together - it gives her mind a place to reset that isn't only at the beginning of the lines. It helped with her pitch and overall character of the song.
We worked high notes first to make sure Tatum knew she could hit them - and then moved to character. Again, we started in a place that Tatum is very comfortable - we approached it like a monologue. By doing this we got Tatum into her talking placement.
She did so well!
