Vocal Process and Barbershoppers...
Vocal Process is dedicated to sharing straightforward and practical
information on singing and speaking. Gillyanne Kayes has been a
regular guest vocal consultant at the annual Harmony College events
for the British Association of Barbershop Singers (BABS). Gillyanne
and Jeremy Fisher have also presented a training weekend for the
Faculty of Directors from the Ladies Association of British
Barbershop Singers (LABBS).

Vocal Process training for Barbershoppers focuses on fast and
practical ways to improve choral sound. Topics covered include
tonal balance, the voice-breath connection, matching vowels,
and identifying and smoothing gear changes. We also give
exercises for tuning, setting up "lead" quality, extending
your range and clearing your voice of interference. |

Several choruses have already benefited from Vocal Process input,
including Preston Barbershop Harmony Singers, the Kentones
(Bromley), Guildford Harmony, and Vale Harmony. Thames Valley Chorus
have also worked with us and participated in a research project on
'Emotion and voice quality in synchronised singing' with Nicholas
Bannan of Reading University. Many of our courses are appropriate to
Barbershoppers, including our flagship course,
Singing and the Actor Training. We also
offer in-house coaching, recommended for clubs and quartets. Visit
the Tailored Courses
section for more information.
