Ever wondered what it's like to do a PhD in vocal pedagogy? Or how that PhD might translate into teaching singing? Want to know exactly why we think classical vocal training doesn't work for contemporary commercial music singers? We go deep with Dr Marisa Lee Naismith, author of Singing Contemporary Commercial Music Styles, a pedagogical framework: How difficult is it to juggle the work of a PhD, family life and a full-time business? Marisa and Gillyanne compare notes (3.00)Why is CCM pedagogy still not thought of as legitimate? Marisa gives us the background (9.00)What is the single biggest difference between classical and CCM music, and therefore the biggest requirement for teaching CCM singers that classical teachers don't usually do? Jeremy shares his thoughts. (16.50)Marisa prods Jeremy about bias - what's his answer? (18.30)What is the 1% that Marisa is talking about, and what was the survey Gillyanne & Jeremy did that confirms it? (26.40)And what IS the job of a singing teacher? Marisa reveals her take on what needs to happen in a singing lesson. It's a fascinating conversation, and this is just part 1!
