MUSIC TIP OF THE MONTH: VOCALISTS  

Memorizing lyrics doesn’t have to feel like a chore! Try these enjoyable techniques to make the process easier. First, break the song into smaller sections and focus on one part at a time, which can make it less overwhelming. Use mnemonics to create memorable associations or stories for tricky lines; linking lyrics to personal memories can enhance recall. Singing along with a lyric sheet or karaoke track helps you familiarize yourself with the song, and you can gradually reduce your dependence on the text. Additionally, visualize the lyrics as a story or images to create a mental picture that aids memorization. Regularly testing yourself by singing or reciting the lyrics without looking can reinforce your memory and boost your confidence. Our vocal instructors are here to guide you in mastering these techniques and making lyric memorization fun and effective. Happy singing, and enjoy the journey of learning!

Creating Harmony for Children in Need  

Dear Parents,  At our music lesson school, we recognize that music is not just an art form; it’s a vehicle for positive change. That’s why we are excited to announce our partnership with the Rocky Mountain Children's Health Foundation, an organization dedicated to improving the lives of children facing serious health challenges. Each month, a portion of your tuition will support their vital work in providing resources, advocacy, and hope for families in need.

By choosing to learn music with us, your child is joining a movement that fosters compassion and resilience. The Rocky Mountain Children's Health Foundation exemplifies the spirit of community, ensuring that no child navigates their health journey alone. We want our students to feel empowered, knowing that their musical journey contributes to the well-being of others.  Our dedicated and enthusiastic teachers are committed to making every lesson engaging and enjoyable. We believe that when students experience the joy of music, they also learn the importance of giving back—creating a cycle of kindness that benefits everyone.  We encourage you to share your ideas on how we can further support the Rocky Mountain Children's Health Foundation. Whether through community events, awareness campaigns, or fundraisers, your suggestions can help us amplify our impact.  Together, let’s inspire our children to not only embrace their musical talents but also to reach out and support those in need, creating a brighter future for all.  Warm regards,  Littleton School of Music
