Before starting this lesson I made sure I had my bottle of water with me, as well as having a suitable backing track for the song and lyrics so once I had finished with my warm up I could go straight onto rehearsing the song. As a warm up today I decided to do a siren with my voice challenging both the low and high ends of my vocal range. This helped me as I could reach some of the low notes that I have been finding quite difficult when rehearsing the song.
When doing a run-through to my teacher, he told me to be careful with the low notes and also make sure I rehearse the quick lines in the chorus and make sure they sound good because they will be quite challenging. He told me the song was a good contrast to 'I Dreamed A Dream' and it challenged my voice, I just needed to make sure the low notes where rehearsed, the lyrics were learnt and the fast phrasings were rehearsed as well.
When rehearsing the song I made sure to note on my lyric sheet what parts of the song are quite challenging for me and what parts I need to work on the most. I recorded where the low notes are in the song, as well as recording where the quick phrases are. Doing this has helped me realise what parts need work, and this has helped me structure my rehearsals better rather than singing the song continuously. I know the song fairly well, so I don't need to worry about not knowing the lyrics, but I need to make sure I am confident with all aspects of the song before we go to perform the song.
