A beauty by nature I agree singing in a classical way is hardly natural just as an athlete can’t achieve the skills required to perform at a truly noticeable level without unnatural training. The most beautiful voice won’t sound beautiful when attempting to master going through the passagio to create the one even sound as it is unnatural to begin with the larynx wants to go up. As Pavarotti explained when learning to do this he thought he would choke it’s no different to as I would say a ballet dancer training to stand on their toes An unnatural act made to look or sound as in singing appear and sound easy
In a sense it is natural, because most of the breathing and support problems we must work on is actually re-learning, changing the bad habits that have been indoctrinated to us by the environment. A new-born baby has it all... But of course, just saying the word "natural" doesn't help much if we are already very unnatural.
thank you maestro for all your lessons, i have an apoggio teacher, but your lessons are a very good complement!
Totally agree, nothing natural about it. Thanks for your videos Franco!
