Mo Millar has a 25-years track record in matters related to the voice. She works mainly with Complete Vocal Technique (CVT), a groundbreaking method for voice technique/expression with clear and concrete directions. It helps singers, other performing artists and people professionally working with their voice of all styles and levels to efficiently solve technical- and artistic dilemmas. In her work Mo additionally refers to her extended knowledge of Speech Techniques (following a career in radio/TV journalism, communications, speech- and media training), studio & stage performance, microphone technique (studio & live), stage presence and several interpretation techniques.

 

Mo holds an University Degree in (Speech for) Radio, Television, Print Media & Communications (Broadcast Media, Print Media & Communications) from Fontys University for Applied Science in Tilburg (NL). She's additionally qualified and certified in Complete Vocal Technique (CVT). Mo introduced Complete Vocal Technique to Switzerland in 2007 as Swiss representative of the Complete Vocal Institute (CVI), a task her busy agenda no longer allowed her to fulfill.

 

Mo keeps on updating her knowledge and skills, a.o. at the CVI-headquarters in Copenhagen (DK) in a specialized 3-year programme for voice professionals in order to uphold the highest possible degree of vocal expertise. She will graduate as CVI-Authorized Voice Instructor in Spring 2011.

 

Mo provides for private coaching as well as for tailor-made voice training, workshops for music institutes, conservatories, choirs, vocal groups, theatre groups, music teachers, recording studios as well as companies and international organisations. The Vox Sana voice studios are based downtown Geneva, Switzerland.

 

Philosophy & Pedagogy

Healthy sound production, artistic development and personal growth form the core of Mo's coaching. The aim is to offer guidance in determining goals and achieve them, whatever your music style or voice activity. 

Mo deals with all possible levels - from professionals to amateurs - in various settings, ranging from preparing and/or accompanying studio recordings, concerts or (long-term) touring, acapella groups, theatre performances & other vocal performing arts, schools and music institutes, radio & television presentation as well as commercial presentation (speech, diction & text writing/editing for radio, television & speech writing/editing for general presentations).

Mo offers Voice Emergency Aid for people having lost their voice or encountering severe voice difficulty: a voice extinction - for 95% the result of stress and emotions - can be resolved within' a couple of hours. Sometimes it's necessary to follow up with a programme to re-educate the voice. Even if you are new to singing or perhaps think that you are “tone-deaf” and cannot sing at all, Mo will be able to help you.

Mo respects the personal goals of everyone at all times and the focus will be put on what you wish to learn, how you wish to sound and on how to bypass dilemmas and voice trouble, using a variety of pedagogical tools to tackle the many different ways of learning (as we're all different :-)).

Mo will never express any judgement on sound or taste for students to develop in an atmosphere of freedom and serenity, the fundaments of self-confidence leading to growth.
