Hilary has helped many singers to achieve their goals. She can help you to:

• improve your singing and musicianship for your own enjoyment and self-expression
• rehabilitate your voice after an illness/vocal trauma
• pass singing exams (eg. ABRSM/Trinity/LSM grades/diploma)
• prepare for auditions and performances
• gain confidence in using your voice

In your singing lesson, Hilary will teach you how to sing with a healthy vocal technique, enabling you to get the best out of your voice. She will show you how to warm up your voice and will give you vocal exercises to improve your stamina, range and flexibility. Students work on repertoire carefully chosen to suit their ability, age and taste; songs can come from a range of different genres, though some students choose to specialise in one area (eg. classical, musical theatre, pop). General musicianship, aural skills and performance technique are taught alongside voice technique. For those wishing to take grades, Hilary also teaches music theory. This is usually integrated into lessons from the beginning so that theoretical knowledge remains in step with vocal expertise.
