Hayden- Voice Lesson Review 9/7


Warmups

Bella signora

- Resonance in the body, not just in the head. Tempered. Can you feel it in your sternum as well as in your face?

- Be like an icebreaker

- When both resonances are present, throat stays in the same position

- Open the mouth more at the top. Copertura

    - As the mouth opens, the tongue comes with it

- Don't gloss over [i]


Light falsetto 5-note scale descending

- idk what the point of going so high is but it's kinda neat

    - go to extremes of voice and work inwards

- breath first, then sound


9-note scale ah-oh-oo

- copertura di nuovo, accipicchia

- don't lose support while trying to change mouth posture

- dome is outside and in front, not inside


fa

- ffffffffffffffahhhhhhhhh 8531

- as far out as possible. Way out there


Der Vogelfänger bin ich ja

- stets lustig. heissa, hopsasa

- slow it down. Pretend it's Wagner

- keep that column the same on the octave jumps

- Copertura III: return of the round lips

    - on the scale up to the E, keep lips nice and rounded

        - s/on, not sein

- Thomas should, in different circumstances, always be able to see your tongue. Again, let it come down with the jaw

- sing through consonants. Or at them. Whever keeps you from falling behind the beat

- don't say sorry or Dr. Chiesa will fine you


Dichterliebe

- tongue

- pointed sound gets pointier as height gets heightier. or focused or whatever

- [i]


Bella siccome un angelo

- [i]

    - v'inamora

Overall this lesson was incredibly exciting. A lot of things I've been struggling with the last couple weeks clicked into place for me. ...
