'Mooning' rehearsal with Lena

Today Sarah and I had a one to one with Lena going over the song 'Mooning' for Grease. This was a very helpful session. Due to many reasons I feel there has been a lack of really going over some of the songs in depth. We began by simply singing through the song once. This enabled Lena to see what needs changing and developing. The main point Lena noticed with my singing was that I was cutting of the words very short, I needed to hold the notes for longer. Also that I needed to join my words together to take away the stacato feel I was giving to the song.
Also a problem was my volume. As no one is getting mics its crucil that I sing loud enough for the audience to hear me over the music. I think that once I gain more confidence with singing on my own and with the song it will allow me to start projecting my voice more.

Overall this was a very helpful session and left me with lots to improve on.
