Classical singing forms an excellent foundation for other genres. Its rigorous focus on breath control, pitch accuracy, vocal range, and tonality can be instrumental in mastering any kind of music. However, transitioning from classical to contemporary styles often requires adjusting techniques and interpretation to suit the requirements of each genre.

Julian Morris Voice Studio plays a pivotal role in guiding singers through this transition. Julian's deep understanding of the voice and his experience across different musical styles make him the ideal coach for singers wishing to diversify their repertoire.

For rock music, one of the challenges is achieving the raw, emotive quality characteristic of the genre. Julian helps classical singers adapt their usually controlled and smooth vocal production to the more gritty and edgy sound required in rock. This involves teaching safe techniques to add grit, such as vocal fry or rasp, without causing damage to the vocal cords. We also help with voice lessons in the Upper West Side.

In pop music, Julian focuses on helping students master the necessary vocal agility and flexibility. This includes understanding microphone techniques, experimenting with vocal coloring, and navigating the often syncopated and rhythmic melodies. For classical singers, this might mean letting go of some classical precision for a more relaxed, conversational style.

Theater music combines elements from both classical and contemporary styles, demanding a strong command over vocal dynamics, character interpretation, and storytelling. Julian assists singers in exploring these aspects, teaching them to project their voice without a microphone, as often required in theater, and to convey the emotion and context of the songs they perform.

One significant aspect that Julian Morris Voice Studio emphasizes is maintaining vocal health. Singing in different genres can place various demands on the voice, and without proper technique, singers can risk vocal strain or injury. Julian helps students understand their unique vocal boundaries and how to push them safely.

At Julian Morris Voice Studio, the belief is that a well-trained voice is not limited by genre. By offering personalized coaching and applying the principles of Bel Canto technique to contemporary genres, Julian helps classical singers become versatile performers, capable of captivating audiences with their adaptability and musical prowess across genres.
