Luke Shepherd Lesson Summary 11/20/2013

I think this was the last lesson Cindy did with a voice. :( We did a lot of gentle Oren Brown vocalizing which was best for both of us since our health is on the fritz. We did a really gentle 'ooo' in descending patterns and focused on open jaw space and easy phonation. We did several other exercises intended to exaggerate the space between the molars and focused on keeping that space and only moving all the extrinsic muscles, muscles in the face that shouldn't affect my phonation and have nothing to do with pitch. It's really hard for me to do still, to sustain a note, have open space, and movie the muscles in the lips, cheeks, etc. around without moving your jaw. So hard for me...
