Prompt questions

On what subject(s) are you an authority?

I am at now the only pioneering vocal training and development into true structure development for what is the biological structure of the voice in the skeleton skeletal muscles characteristics of it, and bridging to the specifics of biomechanics and kinesiology. I look forward to many of different specialisations to bridge with me so not to be the only one but a well organised knowledge. And I am trustful that this will soon happen.

A useful tool for singers, and purely enjoyable also ☺️😊

Realising what singers do when not in rehearsals with them can be confused by instruments playing with them. A profile of no instrument versions of great singers and great singers. Of course it is not perfect, life never is 🤷🏻‍♀️☺️ sorry, but absolutely useful for hearing and discovering phrasé and pronounces and sound production. Thanks for this practice/studio tool VoceuxVoceux

BREATH CONTROL EXERCISE

#THROWBACKTHURDSAY

BREATH MANAGEMENT in practical: how it looks sustain without sound, and it is also a kind of purring.

Posted @withregram • @lucia_cossu_voiceteacher BREATH CONTROL EXERCISE 

Applying the precedent one, so no high breathing but just the internal pushing up of the sternum and no huge lateral chest volume, no you do not get bulky. You do it without the finger and just lip trill without sound, if you can smile at the end before inhaling you are doing it right

What means in sound the proper diaphragm connection in yet good singer.

Singer since very young, it is twelve months she studies with me. You will hear that she is quite in order but there is a huge difference in bewteen the Dianne Reeves and Alicia Keys’s songs and Withney Houston’s one: this is the diaphragm connection that I long looked for her, not perfect yet in all the passages but connected and so it will be possible to train it and have those passages perfects just by using it and remaining connected. Enjoy!

Vocal technique fundamentals: what first? Copertura, sustain or appoggio?

One of the great questions this. One of the thing I find the most misunderstood is that without sufficient support  it will be useless to work on copertura and appoggio. With sustain intending not just a force created by transversus abdominis and diaphragm but jalso the simple posture in tonic relaxed attitude, ready to sing. I generally find too short and need to be developed to work properly with appoggio and copertura. So I will say before sustain, when there is enough to have the correct larynx position we start working with copertura and appoggio with exercises involving also sustain (so to be sure not to lack of it totally).
