The way you perform should reflect the mood and emotion of the piece

Performance Development

Performance Development

You deserve your place in the spotlight. And it’s about time someone supported you to get where you belong- Centre Stage.

I've been here before- Take me to the booking page

Performance Development is for you if you’re a more advanced player or singer, and you already have pieces you’re working on. I also work with clients who need help and advice with vocal coaching, and speaking and presentation skills.


Advice, audition or exam prep. Expression, dynamics & control. I’ll help you get the best from all these to give your most impressive performance yet. You’ll love it when the crowd goes wild!


I’ll inspire you to change your scenery & costume, so you're ready, whatever the occasion. Surprise your friends and family with your guilty pleasure and give Idina, Lin & Jonathan a run for their money! You’ll learn secrets the professionals don’t want you to know ….. For less than the cost of one ticket in the stalls!


Anyone can learn to play a piece of music or sing a song. But if your aim is to connect with your audience and make them feel the emotion of what you’re playing and singing. It takes time and character to bring it to life. I’ll help you focus with detail on specific areas of your pieces to make sure you understand and reflect it’s true message. We’ll work together with technique to tell the story and ignite the images in your listeners mind. They’ll love the magical journey you’ll take them on. 

Here’s a look at some of the things you’ll learn:

  • How to speak so people listen
  • Why only playing or singing a piece is not enough
  • The art of storytelling through your playing or singing
  • How to wow your audience and leave them whooping for more (You'll learn the same technique as Bradley Cooper, which led to him winning a Grammy for 'A Star is Born')

This is suited to you if you:

  • Are a more advanced player or singer
  • Have access to an instrument or your voice to demo your amazing potential
  • Have pieces you’re working on and you want to improve
  • Want to get the best out of your performing skills
  • You want advice for audition or exam prep., speaking or presentation skills

This is not suited to you if you are:

  • Just starting out
  • Are ‘fixed’ on one way of playing or singing and won’t ‘budge’

So I understand exactly what you’re looking for, let’s chat in more detail before your lesson. Or send me an email at tuition@scottwelcommemusicservices.com so I can prepare to make sure you get the most out of your lessons with me. It would be to both our advantage if I can see examples of you performing in some capacity so I can prepare with how best to guide you.
