Sam - Sam has a beautiful rich voice, and for the most part sang using deep breaths. He also had a nice tension-less jaw and open throat. He did however seem a little stiff and non-expressive, as if he was thinking a ton about his technique. Cindy worked a lot with helping him internalize the shape of the music in his body as he sang through moving his body. The flow of his singing did improve slightly, and he was able to hit the higher notes more solidly. He still needs to play with this.
Luke - Luke has a soft, gentle timbre to his voice. As he sang through his song the first time, his breathing wasn't entirely connected and we would loose him on the low notes and ends of phrases. Like Sam, it seemed like he was thinking a lot about his technique and not about expressing the meaning of the piece. As Cindy worked with him through her resistance tactics, his breathing became deeper and his phrases were more connected. He definitely sang with more power. Keep it up!
