Studio Newsletter with Calendar
July 2026
When adrenaline is high, such as during a test, one is unable to pull answers from short-term memory, only from long-term memory. This is why we voice teachers emphasize repetition, memorization, and multiple live-performance opportunities…to reduce anxiety and make singing joyful, easy, and non-threatening!
