We are thrilled to report that the recent 2024 NATS Cal-West Region Regional Conference featured current MA Voice Pedagogy student Erica Waxer among the guest presenters! The event was held at the University of Utah in Salt Lake City, Utah from 12th-14th January.
Erica’s paper, titled Poor Pitch Singers in the Voice Studio – Current Challenges and Solutions, surveyed and interviewed voice teachers to analyse perceptions and experiences of teaching poor pitch singers (PPS), and to identify the best tools and practices, as well as any gaps in current pedagogical literature and training.
Congratulations, Erica!
