STRETCHES AND BREATH EXERCISES FOR SINGERS // 5 MIN VOCAL WARMUP
Просмотров 14011 месяцев назад
Stretching and doing breath exercises is a great way to wake up the voice and the body before your singing practice session. This is often an overlooked step in a singer's warmup routine, but if you stick with it for a few weeks, you will notice the difference. I hope you enjoy this new series that I have started on my channel with a weekly 5-minute video on singing. Thank you so much for watch...

    Ah! I just bumped into your kind of "detoxifying my journey" video, and I couldn't tell from that what kind of musician you already are whilst learning to play the piano. Now I get it. You're an accomplished coloratura soprano, complete with your very own Queen of the Night high F. I was in a college production of Die Zauberflöte WAY back in the day, which in no way qualifies me any sort of expert, but as a result I know this song pretty well as a listener. You did a wonderful job of singing this song in a way which reflects the drama of the scene, where Queenie's trying to persuade her way-too-nice daughter Pamina to kill the benevolent high priest Sorastro. 10/10. Brava!!

      Hey Helen, my name's Claire. I found your channel when searching for breath exercises. I've been doing transfeminine voice training and I've been recovering my love of singing that I suppressed for a long time after my voice got deeper during puberty. I read The Artist's Way years ago and it's great to be reminded it of it at this stage in my life. I'm really enjoying your videos and I appreciate your insights and honesty. I just watched a video that really resonated with me and the process I've been going through lately. It's called "Worthy of Unmuting Yourself" by Shannon Evette and it's about finding our voice in an often oppressive patriarchal society that expects us to be silent and submissive. She also challenges some notions of God and reminds us of our right to freedom and liberation. Anyways, I was just inspired to share that with you and I look forward to watching part 3 (and doing some more of those breathing exercises!) God bless you and have an awesome day!
