In early April we headed out to Racho Cucamonga to present for the choirs at Chaffey College, and their fantastic director, Dr. David Rentz. Having worked so deeply with choirs, we always feel a special kind of homecoming when we get to bring voice science into the choral setting. The Chaffey choirs were eager, attentive, and accomplished. The information came at them quickly in our brief two-hour session, and they soaked it in. Perhaps the most interesting part of choral presentations is getting to have them sing, and getting to see the changes that come to them as they begin to employ voice science. The difference is immediate. You can hear it in their voices, see it on their faces, and enjoy the confidence bounce that they feel from having new, clear language to apply to their voice practice.
David Rentz commented on the event saying that "David and Laurel came to Chaffey College, a California Community College in Rancho Cucamonga, to work with my choirs. They were intense and rigorous, but also engaging and exceedingly good-humored. They took my students where they found them and helped them grow in their understanding of the physiology of the voice—with all that entails—and to curate and augment their personal singer toolboxes. My singers sing better and better as a result of their VoiceScience workshop—I can’t imagine an afternoon better spent."
