Practice 9/6/16

I've been using my little notebook as of late, so I haven't been posting here (that, and my laptop is really heavy, so I don't like to carry it around...)

Listen to lessons 2/26/16, 8/5/16, and 7/18/16

• sternum breath
• breath on bottom, pitch on top
• think of oval! It makes a difference
• this also cues molar space without jamming
• no punting
• **Inner smile/A-O Joint balance
• sneeze space

An observation: I sing better throughout the day if I start in the morning/not sleeping in. 

UPDATE:

Master Class with Jamilyn Manning-White

"Va! Laisse couler mes larmes"

• "Ok" fingers, loose lips/jaw
• higher [o] for "va!"
• "like that"
• loose mouth!
• "I need a minute" -- keep down the emotion while it bubbles up and sometimes overflows, but keep it under control. 
• keep vowel focused--you have a tendency to spread vowel.

Ask questions when singing. "Discovery!"
