How often should I schedule lessons?

That really depends on your specific needs. Obviously, consistency is important, especially in the beginning. Once-a-week is the “norm,” but some clients take several lessons more often when important auditions come up, or they need to prepare for a callback. As you begin to prepare your audition music, it’s important to realize that going to a coach is not like buying a pair of shoes – you don’t necessarily walk out with a song “ready to go.” Coaching is a process that involves not only choosing the right material, but also arranging, transposing the music, as well as working on the performance, both vocally and physically. How many songs you need varies with the situation; obviously you wouldn’t sing the same song to audition for Show Boat as you would for Grease. So you should have several songs in different styles ready. Learning a song the night before is never a good idea, since you won’t be totally comfortable with it. Auditioning involves many pressures that are not under your control. It’s important not to add the additional pressure of learning a song at the last minute.
