    • Uitvoerende kunst

'There's always a million versions of the less scary version of the final thing you wanna do'

Greg Delson has been performing, researching, mastering and teaching vocals for over two decades. Greg received his BA in Music from UC Berkeley, his Masters of Music in Music Education from Boston University, and the 3-year Singing Teacher's Diploma from the Complete Vocal Institute in Copenhagen, Denmark. 



He believes and has proven that everyone can sing. Coining the phrase, "Singing is not a talent, it's a skill," Greg focuses on vocal pedagogy with the same philosophy that one would use to teach any other craft: with the right coaching, technique, practice and time, anyone can master anything.



Greg teaches everyone from GRAMMY award winners to beginners. In addition to teaching, he has recorded and toured for years with various bands, collectives and music projects, and brings his experience as an active working professional into his sessions. Greg is also researching the many psychological and physiological benefits that come from singing, group singing and music performance in general and he is the founder of the LANDLIGHTS Community Choir in Los Angeles, California.



In this podcast we talk about the following things:

- Discovering the Complete Vocal Institute in Denmark, finally getting some concrete answers about vocal technique - after studying for years with some of the most famous singing coaches and not getting those

- A competitive environment versus a collaborative and positive one

- Researching the psychology of learning and creativity

- Creating a space where people have an active role in their own creative growth

- Uninhibitedness: the art of becoming more uninhibited

- Growth mindset versus fixed mindset

- Are we 'born with talent'? or 'not'?

- Developing skills

- You can choose to bring all aspects of your voice in your singing

- How do you practice uninhibitedness?

- Comfortable discomfort; there is a version of everything that feels scary, but still is doable

- Learning the framework of the zone of proximal development, the 'sweetspot' for growth

- Have the voice that you've always used while speaking, but now in a musical context

- Traveling around the world
