I have a voice coach, but only in so much as to make my voice stronger so I can sing for five nights a week, two hours.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I work on my voice through what I have to sing.
I do voicework all the time.
And I've had vocal training on and off for years.
Even if I don't have the money to take vocal lessons, I'll practice in the house by myself singing out loud.
I have been doing voice work my entire life, and I adore it. It is really rewarding stuff.
I am still working on developing my voice. I am, I know, better as a coloratura singer than I was. It's a matter of strong breath control and yet making it sound as though it is the easiest thing in the world.
I'm sure any vocal teacher that listens to me would rather cut my throat than do anything - I do everything all wrong - but I think for me that's the best - because I don't think I have a voice so I think what I project would be style - if I learned to sing I'd lose my style.
I've never had a voice coach, but I am about to name drop horrendously here: I did once get some advice on how to project my voice from Sean Connery, which was lovely. It's all about where you breathe. That's my claim to fame.
So I got interested in singing and I have always used my voice. Not professionally as much, but around the living room, the campfire, that kind of thing.
I want to keep my voice young, with nothing heavy.
