From: Paula's Air Mac 4 To: Jeevacation Epstein <jeevacation®gmail.com> Cc: Subject: Music Date: Sat, 03 May 2014 11:37:09 +0000 Bonjour I listened to Mariana's tracks and its clear she likes a good voice as well as some of the more pop and EDM (electronic dance music) effects. I don't know if you remember Constance Hauman from Opera at the Academy days, but she could totally handle the project if she has the time. She still coaches Miasha and Tora and other young hopefuls and she has access to all the best recording studios, engineers and musicians to put together the kind of band or accompaniment that is decided upon. She basically can "find" and "mold" a voice to figure out what it does best and how to arrange around it. At one point, when she was doing creative direction for the girl's early performances and music videos, I think she was getting a flat fee of 7K per month to do everything—coach, rehearse bands, arrange everything for recording and videos. Then you will pay for musicians and studio time. (My girls have enough experience now that they just pay her for regular voice coaching by the hour). I think the project is totally doable in NYC with everything at easy disposal and the contacts. If you want to proceed, I will ask Connie what her project schedule is and then she could prepare a budget based on what is desired after Mariana sings for her and she gets an idea of what she has to work with. They would pick some pieces to work on and then rehearse them over and over to build a base, and also to get Mariana's voice together. Connie works out of her apartment across from Lincoln Center. So let me know if you want me to contact her... By the way,here's a music video of Ton doing a ballad Ton wrote https://www.youtube.cornAvatch?v=V3T2657Hq0 And now, she is just releasing some new Electronic Dance Music (a totally different direction) called BABY RAPTORS. So you can see how good vocal training can be shaped in many different direction
