9/7/12

Warm-Ups

  • Warmed up before opera rehearsal
  • Still trying to bring sound forward (w/ a lighter, brighter sound)
  • Keeping warmth in tone while achieving a more forward sound
  • Vaccai- Lesson I and Lesson VII
    • diction and vibrato (trying to regulate air to regulate vibrato)
Rep
  • "Magic Flute" chorus rep
    • solidifying notes and rhythms
Break for Opera Chorus Rehearsal
Later, in a practice room....
  • "Where the Music Comes From"
    • trying to energize my sound with the breath to keep the line moving
  • "Gia il sole dal Gange"
    • tried the second verse with the editor's suggested ornamentation (liked it a lot!)
    • the ornamentation felt more flowing than the "bare bones"
