Vocalizations: primal uh to oo, octave lip buzzes, the wobble, shy, getting high
Music Worked on: Seit ich ihn gesehen, Er der herrlichste von allen, Ich kann's nicht fassen nicht glauben, der Ring, Les Petites Communiantes
Take aways: My voice was still pretty worn out from Tarzan as was my body, so we mostly talked about character today. My German set is particularly hard for me because I feel like I am singing about stuff that I have limited experience with. Laurie and I spent a lot of time talking about my experiences and hers to try to find something that would help me connect. It turns out there isn't much that I can connect to within my own life, so we decided to have me take the approach of pulling from movies or books. This helped a bit, but I still struggle. It was helpful to have Laurie and Emma share there experiences cause it gave me some ideas to implement and mix with the movies to help me picture what I need to. I learned that sometimes you have to draw from multiple sources to find the emotional connection you need.
Impact on weekly practice: I need some more time with emotional connections. I need to be uber specific! I probably need to talk to people more about my pieces so that I can bounce ideas around and find the one that fits best! I am still so in my head and it is effecting my voice because I am not connecting emotionally and just letting the sound happen! I need to study the dynamics more as well to create emotional shifts.
Goals for next week: I want to have a sing through and just have Laurie critique me on my emotional commitment both in my face and dynamically.
