Ben Shaw 09/19/2013 recital/masterclass

1. Luke
2. Breathing: good, better than last.
3. Intonation: sustained notes no longer problematic. Watch faster runs at the end.
4. Timbre: warm, consistent sound in the head range.
5. Diction: good, although could use more on vocalized consonants.
6. Expressiveness: bland at the beginning, progressively became more engaging.
7. Masterclass: worked on production of sound from the chest, like in talking. Also worked on including audience; noticeable improvement.
8. Overall: noticed tightness in shoulders occasionally (higher notes), good consistency.
