Work Your Vocal Muscles

We've already added 15 minutes of healthy movement to our healthy habits. Now we'll work some different muscles - our vocal muscles!

While we have many opportunities to sing through the week (rehearsals, vocal lessons, performances) how many of us take the time to work our voices on non-scheduled days?

Your assignment is to incorporate a daily vocal workout to your routine. Create a binder or folder for your work and write down your routine.

Your routine should include:

1) A breathing exercise
2) Scales & vocal control exercises
3) Time to work on a new piece or rehearse for an upcoming audition / performance

You do not need a piano to do this! (Although it helps)

Try asking your vocal instructor if you may record him/her playing exercises for you.

What will your routine look like? How will you fit it into your day?

My vocal coach told me to buy a CD called "Winning Warm-ups" by Kathleen Van Der Graff. Now, I do my vocal exercises in the car. Granted, the clerks at Drive-through window at Starbucks think I am nuts, but who cares?

haha thats funny Jamey. smilies/smiley.gif Thats another part i love about theatre. Like after a dress rehearsal or performance if you go out to eat or to the store in your costume, all these people are staring at you like you're crazy and its so much fun to wave at them and act like there's nothing wrong.=)

I once got pulled over on the way to a Pirates of Penzance dress rehearsal. Turns out the cop just wanted to chat me up. Apparently I looked like a hooker in my stage makeup, lol. smilies/cheesy.gif
