Tuesday 21st October 2014

Conclusion

During this project we have learnt a lot of information and gained knowledge surrounding vocal exercises and vocal techniques. Which this new gained knowledge and a wider repertoire, awareness of using and protecting your voice is far more easier to do.

If you maybe want to improve your singing further, investing at private lessons may help you but there is a wide range of information online to help you if maybe that's out of your budget.

To maintain your vocal techniques you need to take time and commitment to keep up with learning them and developing your skills further. Even with professional singers there will be room for improvement. The more you work and exercise your vocal chords the more you can challenge yourself as a singer and become the best for your ability. The more you perform exercises an techniques the more your voice will improve and your range increase and the better tonal quality and flexibility you will have with your voice. 

Even fi you practise for a few minutes a day and follow a regime designed for you you can improve, and you can multi task whilst doing this if you’re busy. You don’t want to get into the habit of not doing it and forgetting or make excuses, which is easy to do but needs self-discipline to accomplish as much as possible. If you were a runner in the olympics you would be constantly practising and training and working as hard as you can to be the best.

A lot of singing principles are important for actor’s as well including breath control and projection for the audience to hear the performance. Breath control are also a massive part of dancing too to keep up the stamina. Martha Graham is a dancer practitioner who widely uses breath control to execute performances. All of this relates back to the basic vocal techniques and exercises which can be easily established through practising. 

You don’t want to strain your voice because it may leave you out of work which could have all sorts of impacts on your professional career or if you perform as a hobby. Without the right experience of working with your instrument and your muscles you can strain so keep up the practise and you will make further developments.

I hope you find my blog and video entries a helpful resource to create your own warm up and spark some ideas on what you need to improve and develop.
