Sarah Boucher Dacy Lesson Plan for 2/19

PLAN:
-Stretch
-How is your voice today?
-Vocalize: attention to presence in the sound and energy
-Work on piece: adding character to it, keeping the energy in it

GOALS:
Short-
1. I want to be more aware of Dacy's breath gesture. I feel like I spend a lot of time trying to get her sound more forward but I don't ever pay attention to her breath. I need to figure out what she is doing with her breath and if she is singing on the gesture of inhale. I will do this by testing her, maybe doing some more involved vocalizes to see where she is at. If I see anything amiss I can use Cindy's scarf analogy cause that always helps!
2. I got Dacy to sing higher last week than I have before. I want to keep this up, building her high range and getting her more confident up there. I will utilize her light childlike voice to extend her range upwards and utilize vocal fry to extend her range downward. The main focus though is on building the high voice.
Long-
1. I want to find a few more things that help Dacy access her more clear present voice. The tricks I am using now are working great but I want to make sure she has a lot of useful tools that she can pull from if one isn't working.
