"Cruda sorte!"
• Breathing it before you start singing it.
• Dynamic is just a color.
• Relax before you sing.
• Don’t be afraid of your chest voice; maintain the same height in your chest voice as in your high voice.
We worked on the recit section mostly.
- Allow yourself more time. Don't be so apologetic. Don't worry so much about "being correct."
- Do the recit like a monologue. In your own language, write down the translation to make it more relatable to yourself.
- Figure out where it is that you change your mind from angry/despair to determination.
- Even on shorter passages, develop the voice.
- Think about tone color for new lines of text.
- Use the accompaniment for drama!
