Hello Friends and Fellow Singers,

Welcome to all new members! I'm happy and grateful to have you in my musical life.

This week's video includes an exercise to calm your voice, your mind and your vibrato.

A lot of people feel nervous and tense these days, and for good reason. Some of that tension is likely affecting our voices. So this exercise (very simple) is for bringing some ease back into your singing. At the end of the video, I also talk about a unique way to steady your vibrato.

The subject of last week's video: using Zoom to practice alone and to share singing with a Singing Buddy - stimulated some responses!

The SINGING BUDDY network.

If you want to find a Singing Buddy, you can be in touch with me here at barbaramusic.2011@gmail.com.
Please answer these 4 questions in your email:

- Your voice type - (for classical: soprano, alto, tenor, bass etc.)

- Your style (classical, pop, rock etc.)

- Your level (beginner, intermediate, advanced). We will assume you are over 40!

- The names of a couple of singers whom you like very much.

Use the subject heading: Singing Buddy

When I have several requests, I will post them on a special page on my Website. I hope this network will grow!

---------------------------

As always, if you have any questions about singing that you would like me to consider for a video, please do so here: barbaramusic.2011@gmail.com.

Use the subject heading: Video Suggestion!

I wish you great singing!

My best,

Barbara

If you find that Stage Fright is a problem for you, look here:

My stage fright guide has taught many singers proven ways to overcome this kind of fear. I learned these things while performing and teaching singing for over 35 years. (Here's my (free) video that outlines some of these ideas.)
