Behind The Scenes & Tour
Life on the Symphony Tour: Preparing for 50 Concerts Worldwide
Touring internationally with a 12-piece gospel orchestra, brass ensemble, and concert grand piano demands uncompromising physical conditioning, disciplined warm-up routines, and harmonic adaptability.
My Daily Concert Tour Preparation Routine
- Hand Conditioning: 45 minutes of slow Hanon exercises, Bach Two-Part Inventions, and octave stretching before touching contemporary repertoire.
- Acoustic Soundcheck: Calibrating grand piano lid height and monitor balance to match hall reverberation times.
- Vocal Warmups: Straw phonation and gentle glissandos to preserve vocal flexibility across back-to-back tour dates.
