[musictlk] Question for Performing Vocalists

[Rachael Abbott]

Hello Sydney,
I would love to know your links to hear some of your recordings.  Because
there is a lot of vocal technique and experience I can learn.

The type of music you perform sounds really interesting.  I would love to
hear it.  Thanks Rachael

post, my work is not in the same genre (i sing gregorian chant, oratorios,
choral music, liturgy settings, etc. as opposed to alternative and rock),
so the environment and context are rather different.  I can give you
feedback about recording sessions, being on stage in a concert hall,
singing/chanting/reading in church services, touring, and maybe a few more
things.  I also have recordings that you can hear.  I am not in your area.
However, I have a friend who is and also don't mind keeping in touch wity
you by e-mail, phone, or whatever would work best.
