5 Tips To Sing With Confidence
Confidence in singing is not just one thing. It’s a combination of knowing your voice (and what it can do), believing in and knowing the material, practice, vocal and stage technique, experience, coaching, a need to express yourself, and, of course, just sheer gumption (i.e. bravado!). To build confidence, it’s important for you as a singer (amateur or professional) to work to get to a level where you can depend on your voice, and body, and know the correct notes, lyrics, and timing of the song.

Casio Privia Keyboard
PX-S7000
Under the slogan “In Harmony with Life”, CASIO presents its new digital piano concept in the form of the Hero Model Privia PX-S7000 in 360° design. Highly innovative and pragmatic, the PX-S7000 presents itself as a contemporary alternative to the traditional digital piano, which integrates perfectly into the interior design of the modern home both visually and functionally.
With over 400 high-quality tones, including three legendary concert grand pianos (Hamburg, New York, and Berlin), it features the New Smart Hybrid Hammer Action keys with spruce sides and a matching beech stand with three fixed pedals. Other features include an LED touch ring, a bright, backlit LCD display for easy navigation, and Illuminated touch sensor controls with assignable multi-function buttons, and there’s so much more!
The PX-S7000’s beautiful design comes in your choice of Harmonious Mustard, Black, or White.
The main body of the PX-S7000 can be detached from the stand and played anywhere, thanks to its optional 8xAA battery power. Check it out!!
New Keyboards at NAMM 2022
CASIO Privia PX-S3100
The new Privia PX-S3100 is a slim, high-performance piano that delivers a harmonically rich sound and a myriad of features that would suit and enhance any singer, singer/songwriter, or musician. If you’re looking for a keyboard that has all the best features and an affordable price tag, look no further!
Upgraded from the PX-S3000, a key feature of the Privia PX-S3100 is its slim body, unique among 88-key digital pianos with hammer action. With a depth of just 232 mm, it is meant to fit perfectly in a bedroom, home studio, or on the go. It has Casio’s original multi-dimensional Morphing AiR Sound Source which accurately generates the unique resonances of a grand piano. Along with Casio’s Smart Scaled Hammer Action Keyboard, you get the feel and weight of a grand piano in a lightweight, sleek version. How cool is this?! (Editors Note: Singers! A keyboard is a must-have in your toolbox!)
The new CT-S1FH
This keyboard began as a novel idea of applying a colorful design to the speaker fabric and led to this unique collaboration with artist, Romero Britto.
