Every semester there seems to be at least one break though/golden lesson. I feel like I had one this week. Three years ago my onsets were too mushy and indistinct. So, after three years of work, they are a bit hard. I also learned today that I have been prepping my breath all WRONG.
It was so cool to finally find the balance and understand how to properly prep and not just hold it in (even for a millisecond) then blow. Apparently I was holding it just before onset without realizing it.
The new exercise for my regime:
We spoke the text of the song together, then sang it just as it felt (breath, onset and phrase) when speaking.
Highly effective for me.
