Creativity Found: finding creativity later in life
Overcoming concerns about your singing voice post-menopause.
Suzanne Noble had concerns about the tone of her voice after not having used it for many years. However, as you’ll hear in the show, she needn’t have worried, and with the help of coaching, encouragement and an inquisitive personality, Suzanne now has an ever-evolving musical repertoire.
Suzanne Noble began her university studies – in the US – majoring in Musical Theatre. However, as she considered what her future performing life might involve she realized she would always be cast as:
‘. . . the quirky girlfriend’
and that she was
‘not talented enough’
so she switched her major to Communications.
On her return to the UK she thought that film making sounded exotic, so she pursued that path and successfully climbed the production-company ladder, as well as becoming a PR manager and starting a few other ventures over the years.
In her fifties Suzanne wanted to sing again, but was concerned about the changes her voice had been through, partly due to the menopause and by not keeping it up in the intervening years.
With the help of her vocal teacher – herself in her 50s – she learned to use and love her new voice, and has been performing dirty blues sets in London clubs ever since.
She has also branched out into a different style of performing, which you can find out more about in the latest episode of the Creativity Found podcast.
