× Have you ever learnt how to sing?

✓ Have you ever learned how to sing?

The verb 'learn' in American English uses the past participle form 'learned' rather than 'learnt'. Using 'learned' is more standard in American English, which is the context here.

× One of my dearest aspirations is to sing my favorite folklore songs, ideally while dressed in a traditional costume and performing the Barnier, A spirited Russian folk dance, to give the music an authentic, vibrant flair.

✓ One of my dearest aspirations is to sing my favorite folklore songs, ideally while dressed in a traditional costume and performing the Barynya, a spirited Russian folk dance, to give the music an authentic, vibrant flair.

The sentence contains a capitalization error and a misspelling of 'Barynya' (a Russian folk dance). Also, the comma before 'A spirited Russian folk dance' should be lowercase 'a' to correctly appositive the noun phrase. Correcting these improves clarity and correctness.

× To be honest, I haven't settled on a specific audience yet, but truly captivates me is the thought of standing alone on a grand stage, putting my heart out through sight to see of unfamiliar faces.

✓ To be honest, I haven't settled on a specific audience yet, but what truly captivates me is the thought of standing alone on a grand stage, putting my heart out through sight to see unfamiliar faces.

The original sentence is missing the subject 'what' before 'truly captivates me', which causes a sentence structure error. Adding 'what' corrects the sentence structure and clarifies the meaning. Also, 'to see of unfamiliar faces' is incorrect; it should be 'to see unfamiliar faces'.

× Singing release and orphans the body's natural feel good hormones, which can alleviate mood and foster happiness.

✓ Singing releases and awakens the body's natural feel-good hormones, which can alleviate mood and foster happiness.

The original sentence uses 'release and orphans' incorrectly. The intended verbs are likely 'releases' and 'awakens' or similar. Also, 'feel good' should be hyphenated as 'feel-good' when used as a compound adjective. Correcting these improves clarity and grammatical correctness.
