This week, your resident Trained Musician™️ talks with contralto Emily Geller about voice types, branding, casting, and the somewhat complicated business of figuring out what kind of singer you are.

Emily talks about her journey from lyric mezzo to contralto, why the voice should probably come before the label, and how getting technically stronger can change the repertoire you’re able to sing.

They also get into how to learn roles the right way, the importance of rhythm for acting and comedy, Gilbert & Sullivan, audition packages, and the ongoing challenge of making yourself easy for the industry to find.
