    How To Perform With Confidence with No Rehearsal

    How To Perform With Confidence with No Rehearsal

    Preparing for, and having, a successful singing performance when you get no rehearsal and don't know the room or the sound person, is not easy.

    Fortunately there are some steps you can take that will help you to sing with confidence and shine like a star.

    Today, we're going to hear from one of my Confident Vocalist Circle classes where I shared my tips for preparing for and handling a recent mystery performance, singing at my sister’s wedding reception.

    I’m sharing this on the podcast because I had several people message me after the class and they shared with me how much of a game-changer it’s been in their ability to be confident in a mystery performance...one where you are walking into a situation with no rehearsal and little insight into the situation.

Truly wonderful resource!

This podcast is truly a gift. Deanna does such a wonderful job presenting each topic and tip in an approachable and digestible manner. This is a great resource for anyone, but is an especially helpful substitute for singers who may be unable to attend lessons or classes. I’m so grateful! Thanks Deanna!

Great singing tips

I love the quick yet impactful bits of info that Deanna Maio offers! You can tell she’s a pro who’s been doing this for years, and I’m so glad I found her. I also appreciate her no-judgement style, which is welcoming to all, especially those who are just starting out in singing or, like me, a little rusty. I’m really looking forward to what Deanna has in store for future episodes. Highly recommend!

Wonderful!

This podcast is wonderfully presented, and I enjoy the shortness of the episodes while they are all very formative. I have actually done a few online plays and classes with Confident Voice Studio, and I very much enjoy them, and Deanna is a wonderful director. This podcast is very enjoyable and fun to listen to, and it is also very helpful. Can’t wait for the next episode! Thanks!
