9/8/12

Practice Notes:

     Practice did not go so well Saturday. My voice was tired (starting to get sick), so I did a brief, light warm-up and tried to run a few of my shorter, lighter songs. Still started with running Lesson I and VII of Vaccai.

  • "L'ho perduta" went decently. Still felt a little forced on held notes, which is unusual. Had trouble bringing my sound into the mask, possibly due to some congestion and swelling.
  • "Where the Music Comes From". By the time I got here, my voice was feeling very fatigued, but I wanted to look at least one verse over. The "middle" section is easiest on my voice, and is easier to bring my tone to a "happy", bright (yet warm) sound that feels rather free with no laryngeal tension whatsoever.
