The Winter Session Begins This Week
Happy New Year Singers and Pianists!
Okay, the party is over and it is time to get down to some serious singing and piano playing. Let’s shake the cobwebs out of your vocal cords and fingers and strengthen and tone your techical skills to the max!
Now, for those of you who are taking voice exams, I hope you have been warbling 24/7, as your exam is scheduled for Thursday, January 22nd, 2009 -18 days away! Yikes.
Your lesson schedule is abbreviated this term – only 7 lessons in the term, as I will be away for three weeks in February. But, it will give us time to work on new repertoire in anticipation of the voice and piano recital in the Spring.
If you need to change or increase your lesson time, please call me as soon as possible. I have many, many students on a waiting list and hope to accommodate them in the near future.
See you very soon!

Get Your Vocal Cords Ready For September 2nd, 2008! It’s Time To Begin A New Season
Hey there singers!
By now, most of you should have been contacted about voice lessons which begin on Tuesday, September 2nd.
If you haven’t secured your time slot, you should do so immediately, as I will be adding new students to the mix over the next few days.
Also, make sure that all your music is organized and that you please, please bring bottled water to your lessons. I can’t count the number of times I have had to hydrate my singers last season and I am only happy to do so. However, it is always convenient to have water with you, so please try to remember to back a bottle of water with your music.
Look forward to seeing all of you! That was the quickest two months ever, wouldn’t you agree?

Lessons Resume On Monday, January 7th 2008.
Well, the party is over, guys and gals. The Holiday season has dwindled down to a lovely memory and the seasonally disastrous winter weather has begun. So you know what that means, don’t you? Time to “warm up” your vocal cords – literally and figuratively – in preparation for your first lesson of the New Year.
Please call me if you wish to change your present lesson time. I really am looking forward to seeing all of you once again and truly hope that you and your family had a wonderful and relaxing holiday.
Enjoy your three final days of freedom!

Patricia O’Callaghan Promotional Video
Hi everyone:
It’s been a while since I posted, but I am back at it again. Today I added a link to Patricia O’Callaghan’s Promotional video on the LiveTourArtists.Com website.
You can access it HERE or visit the Alumni Student Roster page on this blog to read current news about Patricia.

The Canadian Tenors: Destined For Superstardom
Today, I strolled over to the Live Tour Artists website, in an effort to see what HSS alumnus, Patricia O’Callaghan, was planning for her 2007-2008 performance season. She is very busy and I will comment more on this later on in another post.
However, similar to discovering gold by accident, I happened upon a vocally superb and creative group of young singers, The Canadian Tenors. They are nothing short of astounding and a timely and stellar gift to our music industry.
I am seriously attempting to bring this group of singers to Timmins, as I feel they will inspire and captivate our community with their powerful vocals and sparkling personalities. Collectively, they bring a wonderful and memorable diversity of style and substance to their performances.
If you know of a service club and/or charitable organization who wish to be part of this musical presentation, do not hesitate to email me at harmonystreetstudio@hotmail.com.
In the meantime, in an effort to whet your artistic appetite, have a listen to their amazing performance of Because We Believe by David Foster, showcased at the opening of the Royal Ontario Museum in Toronto.

Voice Lessons Commence On Tuesday, September 4th
Hi singers!
By now, you know your schedule so I just wanted to remind everyone to bring a notebook, two 90 minute cassettes and your music from the previous years.
New students, of course, will be given vocal repertoire as the season progresses.
As a courtesy to the student before you, please arrive no sooner than 10 minutes before your lesson.
Also, if possible, make certain that you have properly vocalized prior to your lesson, as this will save precious time at your session with me.
Look forward to seeing you all very soon
Current and Former Singers Of Harmony Street Studio (Rosanne Simunovic, Vocal Coach)
Hi all!
If you happen to find yourself on this site, you are most welcome to submit photos and a brief bio. They can then be added to the Current Student Roster and Alumni Student Roster page. Whether you have pursued a career in music is not a pre-requisite. Whatever career path you have taken will be celebrated and promoted via this site.
Yes – my studio now has a name, but it’s the same studio that each and every one of you travelled to on a weekly basis. Great memories and, most of all, great music.I have already added some pics and bios to the current and alumni pages.
Have a look see!
