WHAT ARE SOME GOOD TECHNIQUES TO WORK ON FOR BREAKS AND GETTING RID OF THOSE AREAS WHERE MY SOUND IS VERY BREATHY?
Again, the breathiness occurs when you drop your support. I have my students sing a sustained “mi-me-ma-mo-mu”, followed by “mieaou” on a single pitch, working on supporting all the way through the line and channeling the breath. For negotiating breaks, it’s usually easier to approach them from the top going down, very slowly, keeping absolute legato connection the entire time you’re singing. That way you can feel when the “gears” start to shift, and learn to blend accordingly. TOP HOW DO YOU INCREASE VOCAL RANGE? I ESPECIALLY NEED HELP EXPANDING MY LOW REGISTER BECAUSE I HAVE TROUBLE GOING BEYOND MIDDLE C. ALSO, MY HIGH REGISTER TENDS TO CRACK SOMETIMES WHEN I’M NOT CAREFUL. Your range will increase naturally as you develop your technique. It’s good to stretch a little in both directions, but your teacher should guide you through this.
