Karnatic Song & Music

Getting started with Karnatic singing (south Indian music) means discovering a very rich musical world vocally, melodically and rhythmically.

What characterizes Emmanuelle's approach is to approach voice work above all else. Whatever the melody, the raga, the composition, there is no point in singing if the voice does not emerge from the right place within oneself. Adopt a correct, grounded, stable and relaxed posture.

The voice that sounds fully reflects the dimension of being.

What does it really mean to listen? It is becoming aware of the sound space occupied by the tampura*, listening to the swaras (notes), oneself, others in an internal attitude of welcome.

Ragas (melodic modes) are like living, dynamic beings, in perpetual change. Discovering a raga is like meeting a new person, little by little their personality is revealed, a dialogue is established. The relationship between the raga, the one who sings it, and also the one who listens to it becomes a living act that continues to evolve.

As for the swaras (notes), it is a question of seeking precision and paying attention to their “right place”. Finally, whether it is a vocal exercise, a composition, an improvisation, it is the tala (rhythmic cycle) which gives the essential structure.

*Tampura: a plucked string instrument from India that supports the melody of another instrument or singer by providing a continuous harmonic drone.

These days, many foreigners love k-pop and want to learn their songs. But it is too difficult to pronounce the lyrics perfectly. Even there are already many videos for learning them in online but you couldn't confirm yours immediately so it is more difficult.

But WITH ME, YOU CAN HAVE A REAL PRONONCIATION. I will teach you

1. how to pronounce
2. what the lyric means
Also, there are many useful phrases in lyrics so you can learn the real korean conversation.

It's no problem that you have high or low level now.
Just bring your passion and smile.
Moreover, If you have a K-POP song that you want to learn, don't hesitate to bring me.

I am sure that you will really enjoy this tutoring.
If you understand the song completly, you could be touched more.
I expect to meeting you soon :)

Our teacher using, if necessary, an electro-acoustic guitar to better accompany your voice and guide some of its subtleties, the teaching philosophy is adapted to each level, according to the pace of work and motivation.

Program :
- musical techniques: theory (examples: support, modes, colors, effects such as vibrato, etc.) automatically followed, for each of the exercises, by practice (examples: exercises focusing on accuracy, sound production, "mountains Russian ", time, note hold, diction, vowels etc.)
- work on breathing and breathing management
- body awareness
- stability
- resonance
- improvisation / free expression
- improved vocal comfort
- varied repertoire (adapting to your preference)
- well-being by the vibration of the voice
- personal or artistic development - accuracy, note keeping and precision - vocal modes including timbre
- volumes: softness and power - sound colors: from dark to light - vocal effects, range requirements - nuances: volumes, mimics, attitudes, sound quality - exploration of musical styles (folk, pop, classical, blues, rock, song, World music ...)
- improvisation, effects and vocal games, harmonies
-interpretation: work on emotions, body language, stage presence.

Objective: acquire a solid vocal technique allowing you to sing with accuracy, ease and expressiveness.

Musical learning meanwhile, will develop your ability to listen and reproduce music, your sense of rhythm, your expressiveness, your creativity and musicality as well as reading sheet music.

The work is focused on multidisciplinarity: voice, vocal health, music and bodily expressiveness, with an emphasis on the acquisition of an optimal vocal placement, on stress management in public and on interpretation.

This progressive and tailor-made method aims to develop your voice:
-Breathing techniques
-Vocalises and technical exercises adapted to needs;

TEACHER / TRAINER

Trained in Grandes Ecoles in France and the United States (Ivy League University), our teacher has specialized and has been working for more than 15 years, in North America and Europe, in the field, in international establishments renowned, and oriented on one axis: effective training with pedagogy and meticulous methodology as the watchwords.

PLACES, FEES
- Locations: Geneva-Lausanne-Friborg-Neuchâtel-Montreux-Bâle-Sion-Sierre-Morges-Bienne. But currently, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid. These sessions also seem to be perfectly unanimous since they have the advantages of direct (example: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (ex: loss of travel time), with additional advantages (ex: of notes on the chat, which can be reread afterwards). In this context, these videoconference sessions for which you have requested me, seem to arouse a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). At your request, I therefore continue to offer them.

For piano lessons, above all, have fun! The first lesson is given according to your level and your piano and musical desires. Then I adapt the learning according to (technique, pieces that can be approached ect ...)
For singing lessons, I am an opera singer. So people wanting to approach opera welcome and anyone who wants to improve their techniques (opera or variety) also welcome. Vocalises and songs according to your level and musical desires.
For music theory lessons it is really for those who want to fill their gap. In general I always accompany my piano or singing lessons with solfegic notions.

Pianist and choir director with 20 years of experience, I offer singing and piano lessons in different styles.

Singing lessons focus on breath control, breath development, posture, vocal technique, intonation, as well as performance and expression on stage. The students have the opportunity to sing pieces chosen by themselves and/or guided by me (accompanied by my piano).

Private and group lessons are available, with a repertoire-building approach. In addition, I offer coaching for recording sessions and artistic development.

My teacher's credo

As an opera singer, I have had the opportunity to perform on international stages while continuing to teach, which is a true vocation for me.

In vocal pedagogy, I believe that each student is the bearer of a unique instrument: their voice. This is why it is essential to adapt teaching and methodological tools to the individuality of each student. This approach allows me to conduct my classes in a variety of ways, choosing the most relevant vocal exercises or repertoire pieces to reveal the individual potential of each voice.

My technique is based on:

* in-depth breathing exercises,
* awareness of the whole body as an instrument,
* understanding the biological principles of breathing and its artistic role,
* the development of a free and resonant vocal emission.

My main objectives are to:

* maintain a feeling of high vocal position, awareness of resonant cavities in singing,
* work on the purity and continuity of vowels (legato), work on diction (Italian, German, French, etc.)
* gradually develop the tessitura,
* harmonize and balance the different vocal registers.

Finally, I place great importance on the student's personal development. Building a voice also means supporting an artistic personality: this involves guiding each student toward a repertoire adapted to their stage of vocal development, while nurturing their sensitivity and self-confidence.

*///*NEW: MONTHLY GROUP WORKSHOPS*///*
What is this ?

- A workshop ONCE A MONTH on a weekend (in principle)
- In small groups (5 to 8 people)

How does it work?

A short group warm-up.
You play a song excerpt.
The group and I provide constructive feedback.
You experience a mini individual coaching session (but with the group as an audience and support for objective feedback).
Once all the individual coaching sessions are finished, everyone plays their song a second time and we observe everyone's progress :)

With the following objectives:
- To meet interesting people (other private tutoring students).
- To experience a moment together, in a caring and educational environment.
- Discovering the stage and learning how to inhabit it in front of an audience (posture, attitude, energy, grounding, self-confidence, etc.)
- To work on one's interpretation beyond technique.
- To face the gaze of others.
- Overcoming shyness and fear of judgment.
- To receive feedback from outside sources, other than family or friends, in an educational setting.
- Learn from others and be a learning support for others.

The idea is that everyone learns from each other during this moment of sharing! Pretty awesome, right?!

I hope you will be as excited as I am about doing these Group Workshops!

Terms and conditions
- One session per month (3 hours) if enough people register.
- Between 5 and 8 participants.
- No commitment: you can come once on a one-off basis or every time.
- Open: you can bring a friend who would like to discover singing, try their hand at performing on stage or test my teaching approach.
- Booking required (Place due if cancelled less than 48 hours before the event).

Fundamental Thought:
ANYONE CAN LEARN TO SING!
It's important to know this!
The singing voice is part of our human capabilities, it's just not taught in our culture, but EVERYONE can learn!

FOR WHOM:
This course is for anyone who wants to learn to sing, speak in public, or improve their speaking voice.
Children, teenagers, and adults alike, there's no age limit to start learning ;)
Whether you are a complete beginner (and wish to develop a healthy and solid foundation) or an intermediate (to continue to evolve and develop your technique) this is the right place for you and I would be delighted to accompany you on this exciting journey towards the singing voice!

MINDSET:
- First of all, we always work with gentleness, kindness and joy ; )
Singing is a very intimate act, which puts us in a form of vulnerability, so it is essential to work with confidence to feel free to experiment, to make mistakes and to evolve healthily.
The goal is to develop technically and artistically, at your own pace, and with joy!
- It's important to be kind to yourself: learning vocal technique can take time; it requires patience, perseverance, and confidence to see results ;)

POSITIONING:
My teaching method is simple: find what works for you, in relation to your goals and what challenges you.
I constantly adapt my approach and exercises to the student I have in front of me.
We always start from what the body can do (the spoken voice) to take it towards the singing voice.
We never work by force or against the body's natural processes: we always strive for a healthy vocal technique, free from tension and pain ;)

If you have any questions about the courses, teaching methods, or anything else, feel free to send me a message ;)

Looking forward to working together!
Axel

Jazz/contemporary music singer for all levels. A student at the Pôle Supérieur de Paris and formerly at the Bordeaux Conservatory, I'm looking for new students in Paris and the surrounding area! I'm also a pianist and can accompany you.

During these lessons, I obviously want to help you better control your voice, and I like to adapt to each student's wishes, goals, and pace!

Mastering your voice means understanding your instrument and how it works, but also breathing, pitch, interpretation, letting go... Many concepts that we can explore together! Whether you're a beginner or looking to consolidate your skills, these concepts will be central to our discussions.

As a pianist, I can also teach you some basic piano skills, depending on your needs and desires. As a singer, the piano is a very useful instrument!

Upon request, I can also help you create your own compositions and give you the keys to finding your vocal and artistic identity!
