Teaching Info

You will probably find that there are certain areas of your voice where singing is easier for you, and certain points of your voice that are more difficult. These harder areas are called bridges.

The key to Parke’s method is understanding the bridges and the mix. Bridges in the voice are passage areas from one part of our vocal range to another. In Italian, they’re called passagi-or maybe you’ve heard the term passagio. These passage areas are a result of vocal cord adjustments that must take place in order for us to sing high and low in our range. These vocal cord adjustments produce resonance shifts in our body. Parke’s method accomplishes this through a series of exercises that are prescribed specifically for your voice, to allow you to sing through these areas with ease.

Beginners will work towards applying good technique and balance in the voice. Once we have established this, we will introduce vocal style. Professional singers on the other hand, have often developed their own style, therefore we will work with exercises that add strength, flexibility and preserve the voice, so that you can rely on a technique that will last a lifetime!
