Legacy Latest
Greetings from Legacy!!! Welcome to the Summer 2025 edition of our Newsletter where we share all that is going on at the Legacy Studio. Business Updates Following a successful year of online lessons and a relocation we have decided to stay with teaching online for the foreseeable. We have also grown our client base in vocal rehabilitation after bad technique or other types of vocal damage and are excited to continue working with clients who are looking for a holistic approach to vocal production. This also includes more work with actors and public speakers which is very exciting. It has also led to specialising in rock vocals too. We are so excited to be taking this direction as we have always been about safe technique but now we are able to help people who after a bad experience are finding thor voice again. It is rewarding to see them grow in confidence again and feel safe doing what they love. Welcome We have a steady and wonderful group of students so places are limited but if anyone wants to join Team Legacy please go to the bookings page to see availability. Wishing you all a wonderful summer Legacy

Greetings from Legacy!!! Welcome to the Summer edition of our Newsletter where we share all that is going on at the Legacy Studio. Business Updates It's been some time since we last sent out our Newsletter and we will be now releasing our newsletters quarterly. We are happy to report that Rob is doing well in his new venture and we are still in touch. It was also an emotional time for Donna as we closed down the Bolton studio. As the lease reached an end and with over 70% of clients preferring online, it made sense to move fully online for a season. We will trial this for the next 6-12 months as Donna is also relocating to Cheshire due to changes in personal circumstances. We also continue to spend more time with clients requiring rehabilitation after bad technique or other types of vocal damage. We already have some fantastic testimonials which we hope to put up on the website soon. Welcome Since our last update we have had many many new students come and go. The latest addition to the Legacy family is Joshua. Please give him our usual HUGE Legacy Welcome. Themes, Blogs, Social Media and YouTube We hope to pick up themes again soon so please be patient with us. Thank you for your patience and continued support as we continue to do what we do best, grow voices. Wishing you all a Happy Summer Legacy Legacy Latest
Greetings from Legacy!!! Welcome to the May edition of our Newsletter where we share all that is going on at the Legacy Studio. Business Updates It's been some time since we last sent out our Newsletter and we will be now releasing our newsletters quarterly. The main reason is that Donna is a little behind on social media as sadly our wonderful Rob, who shared much of this load, has moved on to explore other avenues including his own music career. Also the beginning of this year wrapped up our work on the Children's Album project, which we can now share with you. For more details visit the official landing page for the music production here: CLICK HERE - TO VIEW Or visit the official social media channels for Green Bean Studios here: Legacy are also making some changes ourselves as we discover more and more students requiring rehabilitation after bad technique or other types of vocal damage. We will be focusing on this more over the next 12 months which may lead to some changes to how we do things. We will of course keep all our students up to date. Welcome Since our last update we have had many new students join. We are very excited to welcome: Debbiel, Mike, Adam, Ruth, James, Anna, Daniel and Emily Please give them our usual HUGE Legacy Welcome.

| Welcome to our January Blog What do we mean by Style? So what do we mean by style? First of all we need to understand the difference between Style and Genre. A "genre" is the word for a categorization, so rock music, progressive rock, etc are all genres. Think of a genre as a label. A "style" is what you call a specific element of the music. For instance, David Gilmour's guitar playing style is melodic with lots of string bends. Source: https://music.stackexchange.com/questions/21936/whats-the-difference-between-genre-and-style This means you can sing a classical song in a rock style and vice versa. What we will be addressing is how to sing a specific genre in its correct style. For example, to sing rock music, you will need to learn the style or technique of vocal distortion in the form of growls or screams.  |  How is this achieved? As always, we need vocal balance as a homebase before we explore any extremes in the voice. We can again borrow unfinished sounds and vowels, scale patterns etc to develop a laryngeal posture to help us discover certain techniques that lend to a particular style. How do we do it? An example is using an edgy M to find subglottal stop, meaning to bring the chords together fully and stop airflow, this is used a lot in some beatboxing techniques. Reversing this and sucking the air in through the vocal folds also creates interesting effects. Using an OH or UH in the lower register and imposing or pushing down the larynx like in a yawn then slowly adding resistance can get you a growl effect. Look out for our youtube video to see how this is achieved. |
