    University Diversity in Music with Matt Edwards

    Summary In this conversation, Aimee Geddes interviews Matt Edwards, an associate professor at Shenandoah University, about his innovative work in voice pedagogy, particularly focusing on pop rock music. They discuss the development of unique degree programs, the importance of diversity in music education, and the challenges faced by contemporary music educators. Matt shares insights into the curriculum for both master's and doctorate programs, emphasizing the need for inclusivity and the integration of various musical styles. The conversation also touches on the decline in music enrollment and the implications for the future of music education. In this conversation, Matt Edwards discusses the evolving landscape of music education, highlighting the rising costs of higher education, the impact of technology, and the importance of quality control in online learning. He emphasizes the need for adaptability in musical theater training and the role of voice science in teaching. The conversation also touches on the significance of embracing diversity in vocal expression and the necessity of understanding the human experience through song. Find us at:   www.ivtom.org https://www.su.edu https://www.edwardsvoice.com www.breakthrough-studios.com Takeaways MattEdwards has been instrumental in developing a pop rock program at Shenandoah University. The first master's degree in contemporary commercial music voice pedagogy was established at Shenandoah. Shenandoah's doctorate program is open to singers of all styles, promoting inclusivity. The curriculum includes anatomy, pedagogy, and technology classes for voice training. Students are encouraged to explore diverse methodologies in teaching voice. The master's program offers a flexible format for in-person and online learning. Diversity in music education is crucial for connecting with various communities. Cultural elitism has historically influenced music education in the U.S. There is a concerning decline in enrollment in music programs nationwide. The conversation around the value and cost of higher education is becoming increasingly important. Rising costs in higher education are often unrelated to education quality. Technology has created new opportunities for music education outside traditional institutions. Quality control in online music education is crucial for student success. Voice science should inform teaching but not dominate the learning experience. Musical theater training must adapt to current industry trends and demands. Unique vocal qualities are essential for marketability in the music industry. Singers should be taught to communicate the human experience through song. There is no absolute truth in vocal pedagogy; biases from the past must be reevaluated. Diversity in vocal expression enriches the learning environment for all singers. Mental health and vocal health improve when singers receive instruction aligned with their goals.

    Beyonce, Krysta Rodriguez, and Defining Mix

    Aimee and Sam define Mix in their own way and use Beyonce and Krysta Rodriguez as prime examples.  Highlights include:  What is mix? What is not Mix?  The “Mix Tent”  The 0-10 scale Sam talks about the subtle transitions that happen on every note and how each note can be considered a bridge.  Krysta Rodriguez sings “Safer” and Aimee and Sam analyze her technique and point out how she handles using her mix on the higher notes without falling out.  Beyonce sings “Love on Top” and Sam and Aimee discuss her ability to ascend gradually, gaining intensity without falling out of place.  Really bad singing jokes that Sam and Aimee attempt.  Please like, subscribe and leave a 5 star review wherever you are listening to this!

    Finding Authenticity

    Aimee shares how helping a student use vocal fry and breathiness contributed to getting the student to sound more authentic.  Sam shares ideas on using natural sounds, even UGLY ones, to help students discover sounds that work for them.  The importance of teaching students to listen objectively to the sounds they make and label them without judging.  Awesome funny/ugly faces that students make. Sam and Aimee try to copy! Helping students use anxiety to tap into their character and feel real emotion.  Chip and Joanna Gaines inspired Aimee to strip away the “stuff” covering the voice, and restore the natural beauty just like the couple does with houses on “Fixer Upper.”  Why sounding just like Rhianna or Justin Timberlake or Pavoratti is pointless.  Loving your own voice for what it is. Teach your students to do the same.  Please like, subscribe, and leave a 5-star review wherever you are listening to this!

    Accepting Your Voice

    Aimee got to improv for an 80s night and found out just how much she didn’t know!  Sam reminds her it’s ok to not know everything, and they have a lively discussion about how important it is to help students be ok with making ALL the sounds, not just the ones they think are “OK.” The difference between classically trained singers and pop singers when the improv.  Getting over the feeling of always having to do it “right.” False science and how we use it, regardless of whether or not it has been scientifically proven.   Helping students identify sounds and accepting them.  The similarities between cheerleading and singing (from a performing perspective.) How to let go and just be in the moment when you are singing.  How extremes make for more interesting singing.  Find more about Sam Johnson at: www.vocalease.net and Aimee Geddes at www.breakthrough-studios.com  Find the International Voice Teachers of Mix at: www.ivtom.org Intro and outro theme song:  No Qualms. https://asharicrecords.com/studio and Maz Mazak www.mazmazak.com  Download past IVTOM conference recordings to catch up on any knowledge you may have missed!

    Are They Stuck or Are You?

    Sam and Aimee share insights into helping students make breakthroughs when you feel stuck.    Highlights include:    What to do when students become “unteachable” and stop listening to you.   Is it ok to suggest students take a lesson from another voice teacher?    Sometimes you have to keep doing what you are doing and it just needs more time.    Validating a student's desire to learn and sing even when little “talent” is apparent.    Aimee- Helping a Student who struggles matching pitch.   Sam- Helping a student struggling to connect to the bottom and find emotion.    Recognizing how difficult it may be for a student to open up emotionally and honoring that.    Aimee’s Cheerleading moment for all voice teachers!    Sam and Aimee have a Mini Sondheim Debate.
