Your Voice, Your Choice

Singing is translating energy

Where are you in the Process? Work from that place

It’s subtle ‘till it’s not

It’s abstract until it’s not

Energy needs somewhere to go…….that direction is always back and down……

Singing is a circular act

Great singers are fast

Your nervous system is faster that you are……..

Singing is coordination……

Pressure is not a bad word, voice it’s a pressure instrument

Singing is about mastering pressure

Presence is often times more important than volume!!

Singing is “connecting the dots”

Singing happens all at once

You need to be a member of the audience when you’re singing

You need to be a fan of yourself

Let the Song Sing Itself

The Breathing Dynamic

Take Your Turn

There is no finish line

It must be in relation

Great singing is in relation to the music, the intention and the audience

The best teaching is that which helps you learn how to teach yourself

It should all grow up together

The elements of voice (ear, musicianship, physical attributes etc) need to “grow up together”

There’s a lot of layers to this onion

You have to be working hard enough to have questions

No one ever got good at anything, without become at least a little obsessed by it.

Great musicians aren’t always great singers, But great Singers are always great Musicians. In that they have great “musicianship.”

The Voice is an Instrument, Assembly Required.

Learn to “Play” your voice.

How deep you can dig into yourself, will be how much you can deliver through your voice
