It would certainly be too late to train my voice if I had ambitions of a career in music. I simply want help expanding my range and breath control so I can sing to the best of my ability, and help with my sight-singing skills, which are not well advanced. I have sung with various choirs in the past, so am not exactly starting tabula rasa. But having sung for a few years with a very good chapel choir, I have fallen in love with choral music in the great cathedral tradition, and need some additional help in training my voice so that I can effortlessly reach all the notes in the first soprano section of any piece I might encounter. I want to sing well enough to be accepted with open arms in any auditioned non-professional choir which I might wish to join. Further, what I am looking for is transference, of a sort. A relationship I dreamed of with a former church choir director...a brilliant musician who i adored utterly ... worshipped the ground he walked on. He kicked me out of his choir with no discussion after completely misinterpreting something he'd heard at third hand. that was two years ago and I'm still grieving the loss of the chance to sing with him. I have been dreaming ever since of a quite different way he could have handled that, and I suppose I'm seeking catharsis through a D/s relationship with another teacher/mentor.
