Vocal Freedom Episode 45 - Joanna Wilson

  • Résumé

  • My guest this week is Singing & Music Theory Specialist and Music Consultant Joanna Wilson. Joanna started her musical career playing violin as a child and was fortunate to tour with Manchester Youth Orchestra before moving to London to start her professional training at 18. As you’ll discover, Joanna had to move on from the Violin and it is here she moved into her singing training, from which she went on to work as a professional Opera Singer, living the 8-shows-as-week lifestyle, before branching into teaching others from 2009. It has not always been easy to manage but I find it helpful to hear about the struggles as well as the successes and note the value in all we experience. Even the toughest of times, that might have felt heart-breaking at the time, can steer us onto our true path and become a valuable part of our story. Approx times 00:00 - 1.25.
