On February 14th, the Bella Acapella Chorus celebrated Valentine’s Day with a special coaching session led by Francisco Brazão, focusing on resonance, vowel unity, breathing technique, and expressive performance.

On February 14th, love was in every note sung — as the Bella Acapella Chorus gathered for a special Valentine’s Day coaching session with renowned vocal coach Francisco Brazão. The barbershop chorus dedicated the morning to focus on key elements of vocal excellence: resonance, vowel unification, breathing technique, and expressive performance. Throughout the session, singers explored how subtle adjustments in vowel shaping can improve blending and tuning, how controlled breathing can support singing, and how resonance enriches both individual and chorus sound. The coaching combined technical precision with artistic inspiration, inspiring each member to connect more deeply with the lyrics, the melody, and with one another.

In true barbershop spirit, February 14th was transformed into a joyful celebration of harmony, connection, and the love of singing.
