Dear Jacqueline and Vocalist:

This is one of my favorite ways to help a student prepare for a recital. I
have a Sony Walkman with small external microphone. As they rehearse in the
performance hall, I make comments and suggestions as needed. I've been very
happy with the results! I'm able to watch and listen to the student, as
well as give feedback "in the moment."

Cheers!

Jana
