Jake TNV chapter 1

Wholes mid the idea of looking at your voice/technique as a whole. You have to connect the physical, emotional, and spiritual aspects of you as a whole, because as a singer, your instrument is not just your voice but you as a whole person. What is most important is what happens when we sing well, not what you did to make that sound.
"What happens when we sing well often has little to do with what we do in singing."
As medicine cures symptoms and not the source, so it is with quick tricks, or small instructions that fix a flat note, instead of finding the source of why the flat singing occurs. Sometimes we like singers because of their vocal gifts instead of their technique. Good technique is knowing what we are doing; not the sound being produced.
Impressive technique + emotional truth = vocal freedom.
Key terms: phonation, musical sound, wholism.
Key concept: if you can apply the idea of wholism, then you can have free singing.
Connection: wholism will free my singing. I need to analyze what happens before and after singing, and while I'm singing not worry about it as much. Take the trip.
