Through my studies with Vocal Manoeuvres I have travelled the world and experienced aspects of the music industry that would have otherwise been unavailable to me. I have had the opportunity to sing with students from across Australia and other countries and perform in world class venues. Observing ‘the greats’ in the classical, pop and music theatre spheres — as we provided backing vocals or choral ensemble support to their performances — has been one of the highlights. I have greatly appreciated the opportunity to formalise my career aspirations by being able to build both my CV with outstanding performance opportunities and gain qualifications in music and theoretical examinations.
