My name is Calvin "Joshua" Eaves, M.Mus., and I am inexplicably grateful for this platform! I am a Kentucky-raised songwriter, keyboardist, educator, and voice instructor with expertise in gospel, R&B, pop, and jazz, and experience in classical and musical theatre. Currently, I am a graduate teaching assistant enrolled in Shenandoah Conservatory's Doctor of Musical Arts degree program in Voice Pedagogy with a Voice Science concentration. With this degree, I plan to expand my expertise as a CCM (contemporary commercial music) singing voice specialist, as well as become a tenure-track university professor and contributing ethnomusicological researcher in the increasingly evolving world of voice science. As a performing lyric baritone vocalist and multi-genre pianist, I possess several years of experience that started with humble beginnings at my Western KY hometown church and expanded to various concert and studio settings throughout the U.S. Southeast and NYC. As a voice instructor, I primarily aim to provide student artists a safe, productive environment in which to explore, cultivate, and maintain healthy vocal function, as well as develop authentic, stylistic, purposeful artistry. My experience in music education has yielded a passion to support creativity and to offer pedagogical expertise with perspectives based on the synthesis of musical art and voice science.
