Thank you, Dr. Williams! This was invaluable in providing practical and applicable information about infant, child, and adolescent voices. Thank you for synthesizing this information in a practical, digestible way and normalizing the emotional components of child/adolescent singers alongside the physical changes they'll be experiencing. I would recommend this workshop to anyone who works with young singers!

This workshop was AMAZING! …This workshop was a fabulous starting point for me to pair with the experience I have had over the years. I have been wanting more regular professional development as a solo owner of my home studio and this workshop was the sort of thing that I need and want. THANKS A MILLION! I will be back for more :)

Dr. Williams' presentation was clear, relaxed, and concise. The information was presented in such a way that it confirmed what I already knew about voice change in teens in particular, and provided some great details about what comes before that change (infancy, etc.). Listening to singers at various stages of change was also fascinating and very helpful.
