This week I had trouble with the e vowel again. But the cool
thing was, I finally found the sensation of my difficulty. My e vowel feels
like a pop in my sound. During my vocalizes, I could sense the pockets of air
that were constantly coming up. I never realized this sensation before. I was just happy that we found it rather than
dwelling on the fact that it’s a problem. Even though we found this issue, I
felt great in my lesson. I felt attentive and energetic in my body. My breath
felt supported and I was so eager to find the pinpoint of my sound. I noticed
exactly how much energy it takes to focus my sound because it can get out of
control. My goal of the semester, and
maybe even the year, is to get the same sensation that happens in the height of
my voice down to my lower register.
While sing my piece, I realized that I have the tendency the
clip (tension in my throat) the first word of the phrases, rather than
connecting them to the breath. Once I
took a good supported breath, the tension of trying to get the words and the
right notes was released and felt a lot better.
It was very helpful to group and chunk the notes that were
unsure.
