Monday: Continued to work on My Junk. I really do love this song. I also find that I prefer to sing with an ensemble of people, rather than by myself. I ultimately feel more comfortable when I have people around me to back me up. And I also enjoy practicing matching my tone with others, or 'blending' in a musical group number.
Wednesday: We began working through our individual pop/contemporary pieces. The piece I chose to work on was "I've Been" from Next to Normal. Thankfully Dallas and Jason helped me make a better, shorter cutting of the song to work with. It's taken roughly twelve weeks, but I'm finally starting to feel comfortable singing by myself in front of people again. The main thing that Jason asked me to do for next time was to lean into the pop sensibility of the song. There are musical 'runs' in the song and I should certainly work on those.
