Today's session
I sang 'Fallen' because I felt that it was important to try and sing it with the microphone. However, because I haven't sang it in a long time, I felt that my voice was going because of how I was reaching on the high notes very often.
I should sing 'z' to the song and practice going from the low notes to the high notes making sure that I am supporting all the way through.
Exercises
Practice
I feel confident playing the piano and singing 'Turning Tables' although I have to practice the last verse. I need to practice singing 'fallen' without losing my voice.
What I need to do next before my recital is to I think it is important to think about what I would like to say during my performance; introduce my songs. And also doing a run through the program so I ensure my voice feels comfortable singing all these songs. If I feel that I am struggling, I will continue doing the breathing exercises of breathing in to 4 and singing notes out to 12. This smoothens my voice and allows me to have control when singing.
Program Update:
My recital is coming up and so far I have learnt all my lines from the chosen songs as well as the piano notes which means I followed my program very well and I have continued singing 'e' 'z' throughout my songs, which has helped me prepare for my pieces. In addition I have prepared my mini speech throughout my recital so that the audiences are aware of what I am singing.
Final program:
1st song- Turning Tables by Adele
(which I need to practice singing during this week with the piano)
2nd song - Sacrifice by Elton John
(I need to practice the last verse into the chorus)
3rd song - Fallen by Sarah Mclahclan
(Practice the last chorus going into the last verse as I tend to re pet the first verse again)
4th song - Way Back into Love by Music and Lyrics
(Should rehearse with the piano making sure that I have different style and notes being played througout the song)
5th song -Valerie by Amy Winehouse
(Need to count and make sure how many 'valerie' should be sang)
I should sing 'z' to the song and practice going from the low notes to the high notes making sure that I am supporting all the way through.
Exercises
- Lip trills in a scale
- Singing to a minor chord - which I find sometimes hard
- Scales in a major going up
