Voice training

I had my first session with a voice coach tonight. I need breathing work because I run out of breath when talking. I want to sing karaoke. I'll be practicing Summertime and 76 trombones.  She tells me I'm at least a baritone and can probably get to bass. I was worried because I knew my voice post-stroke had changed and thought I had lost the bass part.
Another reason for this is exemplified by this book of her bookshelf;

Music Therapy in Dementia Care

 

I'm using this as one of my dementia prevention protocols.

  1. Tell us how it goes. I have a lot of hoarseness since my stroke. I've been thinking about voice lessons, too.
