We are having our Christmas Recital at The Citadel Retirement Community on Saturday December 11th 2010. Please join us and the residents as we sing favorite carols like "Mary's Lullaby", "O Christmas Tree", "Candlelight Carol" and everyone's favorite "Rudolph the Red-nosed Reindeer"!
There will be a recital at 2pm in the Desert Rose building and 3pm in the Main Lobby.
Thank you students and parents for all your hard work and dedication this semester! I am excited for all the singers to share their beautiful voices at this special time of year!

Registration for the Fall semester of voice lesson in my studio has begun. If you are interested in vocal coaching please email me at jkavoice@gmail.com. The printable Registration Form is located to the right of this page. For Summer lessons please call me at 480-275-0823. I would love to take anyone with an interest in learning fun songs over the summer!
In the Fall 2010 semester we will be working on Broadway!!! We will also work on sight-singing, solfedge (do re me), and getting private lesson students ready for Regional's occurring in January. Group students will be working on conducting skills and vocal technique. All students will be required to sing in a public performance setting before their recital in the end or November or beginning of December. I am hoping to secure a local Rest Home for our studio to sing Christmas Carols as well.
Thank you for your interest! Feel free to contact me with any questions!

March Notes and Important Dates
What a great month! You have done so well and I am proud and impressed with each of my students progress. Thank you for your hard work, dedication, memorizing and on-time arrival to your lessons!
Special note for Group Students: You did a FABULOUS job at the Queen Creek Stake Easter Fireside! That was so great to see you stand at the mic and sing that simple, sweet song. You did so well. BRAVO!
As of April 1st, every student is off-book... that means every song is memorized and we get to start working on the fun stuff: dynamics and stage presence! Lessons are all normal this month so please make an extra effort to arrive on time to each lesson and be prepared. We have a recital in 1 month and I want to see you ready for it.
Important dates coming up:
- Fall 2010 Registration Forms go out this week. I have priority registration for my existing students until April 15th. After the 15th I have open registration for all interested students. I only have 12 Group Students spots and the Private Student spots are limited in the Fall so grab them while you can!
- May 5th is the Studio Rehearsal. This mandatory rehearsal is from 6-8pm at the location of our recital that I will get to you soon. There are no private lessons the week of the 2 hour Studio Rehearsal.
- May 8th is my Senior Voice Student's Recital. I am encouraging each of my students to attend as it would be a great learning experience! The recital is at 2pm.
-Private Students: if you have ANY lessons to make-up please schedule a time with me to get those made up.
- Our much anticipated Spring Recital is coming up! It is on May 15th at 5pm. Student call time is 4pm. The location is TBA.
I know we will have another great month! Thank you!
