  7. Emma,
    We'll go over all of this when I see you at your next lesson! In the meantime, check out the link on the righthand side of this page called "Level 1 Requirements." It's a checklist of skills and knowledge designed to take your musical study to the next level. Song projects, basic music theory, practice assignments and the anatomy of singing are all covered.
    I love the picture of you!
