by Rosanne Simunovic Kudos to Paul Anka! He was a wonderfully supportive mentor this week and it was so good to see him work in such a positive way with these young singers. Brian Melo, I am sure speaking for all four singers, readily thanked him on stage for his valuable and informative coaching, saying […]

by Rosanne Simunovic I bet you didn’t think that I would write an article for the Top 5 performances, did you? Well, neither did I but I finally had a moment to myself and this is the result! However, before you start the read, I have to say that I absolutely adored Kelly Clarkson’s input […]

Who here was not enchanted by Kelly Clarkson’s mentoring strategy with our remaining five singers: Brian, Carly Rae, Dwight, Jaydee and Matt? She was a positive, yet constructive vocal coach and her youthful, genuine personality was instrumental to the successful performances of all the singers this week. This was a great show. All the singers […]

August 16, 2007 Comments Off on Vocal Masterclass For Canadian Idol Season Five Top Six Singers: Pop Rock With Maroon Five
by Rosanne Simunovic I am a little late posting the Vocal Masterclass article this week, so I will dispense with the pre-Vocal Masterclass yada yada! As I said in the Top 6 discussion post, I thought this was a great show and I stand behind my first impression. So, throw oranges and apples and whatever […]

I have been having a busy week, considering it’s only Monday. I will try to post a Vocal Masterclass article for the Top Six singers as soon as time permits. Once again, I invite your sincere and honest feedback as we move precariously toward the end of this year’s season. It’s been one rocky road, […]

August 6, 2007 Comments Off on Vocal Masterclass Discussion For Canadian Idol’s Top Seven Singers Featuring The Music Of Queen
Let the pyrotechnics begin. I am sure there will be a ton of glitz and glamour during tonight’s show. Given the theatrically driven music that encompasses Queen’s unique and passionate vocal style, no expense will be spared by CTV and the Canadian Idol franchise. I hope and pray these singers have done their homework, because […]

by Rosanne Simunovic I had a great vacation last week and feel extremely rested. I am ready to resume additional Vocal Masterclass articles for this year’s Top 8 singers on Canadian Idol. It was a pleasure to see Enrique’s mentoring system with our Group of Eight. He was an excellent resource for them, although I […]

Well, that was an interesting evening of music. Not at all what I expected from these singers. As I try to grasp for words in writing this week’s Masterclass article, please feel free to add your comments in this post. Who were your favorites? Did you feel the singing was on par with last week’s […]

Hey everyone! As I am away on holidays, I thought I would start a Discussion Thread for the Canadian Idol Top 9 Performances this evening. I may be able to see the show but will not be able to write a Vocal Masterclass article this week. Please feel free to add your comments about song […]

by Rosanne Simunovic Well, after a two year hiatus, I will be here periodically to lend Vocal Masterclass evaluations to this year’s Top 10 singers of Canadian Idol Season Five. Next week, I am on holidays and will not be able to comment on the singers’ performances. However, this week’s Top 10 performances nourished this […]

It’s going to be an exciting summer of music and, with all the famous rock artists traversing the Idol stage, I, personally, will miss eliminated rocker contestant Tyler Mullendore’s contribution to the mix. I can only imagine the entertaining performances he would have presented throughout the season and sometimes that’s all we are left with […]

July 11, 2007 4 Comments
by Rosanne Simunovic You go girls! What a show last evening. I walked away from these performances more confused than ever. I cannot remember such a strong line-up of female singers, each representing a diverse array of genres and styles. It appears that each and every one of these singers know who they are as […]

July 10, 2007 7 Comments
by Rosanne Simunovic This week’s Top 7 male performances were extremely strong. All of these guys deserve Top 10 status, but we know that two will be, heartbreakingly, eliminated. What can you do? That’s Canadian Idol and I have to applaud the judges for choosing singers that celebrate the depth and diversity of our Country’s […]

So, I was browsing the internet today and look what I found. It’s a much younger Debra Byrd, Voice Coach for American Idol and Canadian Idol, singing with Barry Manilow at the piano, with Dana Robbins on saxophone. It was recorded live in 1988. This song mesmerized me . It was a spectacular performance and […]

by Rosanne Simunovic So, I decided to write an abbreviated Vocal Masterclass article for the Top Nine ladies of Canadian Idol Season Five. I feel that, for the most part, they needed a wee bit more direction than their male counterparts. However, the judging this week was very good and, although I didn’t agree 100% […]

July 3, 2007 Comments Off on Canadian Idol Season Five:Our Top Nine Male Singers Start To Shine
Well,well, well! Last evening’s Top 9 Canadian Idol showcase was a very pleasant revelation indeed. The remaining nine male vocalists decided it was time to “kick it up a notch”. Given the extremely abbreviated performance time frame, I was treated to a glimmer of the future when this year’s Top 10 is a finalized product. […]

Do you feel the excitement in the air? I do. This year, our illustrious team of judges worked extremely hard to ensure the success of Canadian Idol Season Five. As we anticipate the Top 22 performances, beginning with the Top 11 male singers this evening, the Toronto boot camp auditions defined the depth and diversity […]

Rumour has it that Canadian Idol is looking for a certifiable rockstar this year. I don’t know if this is true, but, if so, then they are definitely making a smart move in the right direction. Canadian Idol has yet to crown a genuine rockstar as the winner in any season and, although Season 2 […]
