More about this title

About the Artist: Josh Groban

Josh Groban is a classically trained tenor whose career spans musical theater, classical crossover albums, and contemporary pop. His voice training grounded him in legit vocal technique while his interpretive sensibility draws from a broad musical palette including theater, art song, and popular music. In the classroom and rehearsal room, his recordings serve as models for singers navigating the intersection of classical vocal control and contemporary stylistic expression.

Why we love this

This pairing of a contemporary artist with legitimate classical vocal training offers singers a pathway into modern material without sacrificing technique. The piano/vocal/chords format gives accompanists and singers the flexibility to arrange interpretively while keeping the harmonic structure clear, making it accessible for both traditional rehearsal settings and contemporary ensemble contexts.

What to expect

Earnest and grounded, with emotional directness rooted in both classical phrasing and contemporary songwriting sensibility. The music sits somewhere between art song introspection and radio-friendly accessibility, asking the singer for genuine interpretive commitment.

Who it's for

Singers seeking contemporary material that respects vocal legit technique and accompanists supporting vocalists in pop and adult contemporary styles. This works well for solo recitalists, vocal ensemble members building contemporary choral arrangements, and classroom singers exploring how classical vocal training applies beyond traditional repertoire.

How to get the most out of it

  • Explore the relationship between the vocal melody and piano part; Groban's recordings often feature countermelody or harmonic movement that can enhance phrasing choices.
  • Pay attention to breath placement in longer phrases—classical training meets contemporary pacing here, so identify natural musical moments rather than lyrical phrase breaks.
  • Use the chord symbols to guide harmonic interpretation; whether accompanying yourself or working with an ensemble, understanding the harmonic rhythm informs dynamic and expressive choices.

How to use it

Program this as a contemporary solo option in recital settings where classical vocal training is valued; it pairs naturally with art song or musical theater selections. It also works effectively in mixed ensemble contexts where a featured solo vocalist needs material that showcases both technique and contemporary musical expression.

Skills your students will build

  • Sustaining legit vocal tone in contemporary harmonic contexts
  • Collaborative interpretation between vocalist and accompanist using chord symbols
  • Stylistic flexibility bridging classical vocal training and popular music phrasing
