• Attended an all-day symposium, at Los Angeles Valley College, hosted by NATS-LA, on February 6th. Master Musical Theater and Contemporary Commercial voice teacher, David Sabela-Mills (New York), presented techniques in breath management, Mixed Belt and Super Belt, amound many other related topics. It was great to see how far we are comming in vocal pedagogy and performance at the university level. Makes all the hard work many of us have put in for years to bring modern vocal pedagogy and performance to the university worth it! Mr. Sabela-Mills was what I expect from a modern voice teacher.
