Breathing

Many people wonder how can they sing well and produce a good intonation. They tried many ways and tried many types of concept so that they would be able to produce a projected,rich and solid tone. Unfortunately, most of them do not know the basics of all these. Breathing. There are several techniques in breathing before we sing. These are several tips which I can give when you are praciting breathing or when u are singing

  1. Simplest way of all. Lie down on your bed and start breathing. Notice the diaphragm starts to expand like a balloon when u start to breathe in. Well, thats how you should be breathing when you sing. If u can do so, congratulations cause u succeeded.
  2. Relax your throat. Your throat must be relaxed so that the air you breathe in can pass through. Try yawning. When you yawn, your throat would be relaxed at the maximum stat and allowing a good breathing way. When you sigh, the same concept is applied.
  3. Be sure that you have the correct posture. When you are standing, ensure that you are standing up straight. Do not slouch or slant to the back. Chins should be parallel to the ground and do NOT lock your knees as it prevents blood flow

Choir/Acapella

When it comes to music, most of the people would only focus on rock band, orchestra and a lot of other bands which uses mechanical instruments. Yet, they missed out one of the best and most potential instrument that God had given to us. The human voice. I do believe that most us loves to sing. We sing everywhere which includes our house, workplace, school or even the bathroom without realising its full potential. If our voice which is given by God is being used properly and is trained, we can simply do wonders. Do take a look at what simple man is able to do with only their voice in choirs and in a capella groups.
