Category: Let's talk
Hi everyone.
I have not been on the zone for a long time.
So, it is more than fitting for me to introduce myself.
I am David and I reside in Los Angeles, California.
I am a classical singer.
Spesifically, I have been blessed with a lyric baritone voice.
The purpose of this topic thread is for visually impaired classical singers to gather and help each other navigate this world of operatic singing correctly.
To begin this topic, I would like to throw out a question for you to take a crack at.
what is the correct way of producing a good, natural sound that is both beautiful and consistent?
Here are my views concerning this matter.
In my opinion, the solution to this question is twofold.
This method uses both an indirect and a direct method to accomplish the job.
First, let's talk about the direct method.
When most singers open their mouths to sing, they open it vertically.
when this is done and we sing the Itallian vowel A, it does not come out as an A but a vowel that is not pure.
To alleviate this problem, I would like to propose that we open our mouths in a way as if we are smiling.
this not only helps us to sing pure vowels but we also look good on stage.
Second, let us touch on the indirect method.
The indirect method requires us to let our imagination to whirrle for it to work.
When I am trying to produce the best sound that I can, I imagine that my voice is a piece of paper and I imagine that I am unfolding it when I begin to sing.
Whenever I sing a note, I do not let the paper fold back up.
What do you guys think about this?
Let's have some fun with this and let's help each other along the way!
Ciao!
