Practicing beau soir

What a BEAUTIFUL voice you have!! Such a purity in the tone and this piece suits you so well. in terms of taking this to the next level. I would focus on the structure of the body that is supporting that lovely sound. Make sure that you are standing with a supported neutral posture and work to have a sense of grounding (especially through your lower body). Getting more of your body involved in the sound will give you a stronger foundation and create more space for the breath to anchor. As far as getting lost in the middle section, my advice would be to read and count the music (speaking it in rhythm with the text) WHILE you are listening to the accompanying track. This will help you build your rhythmic relationship and help you track the conversation with the piano. Once you feel comfortable doing that, start to look at the piano accompaniment. Depending on your level of musicianship this may feel overwhelming. That's okay. You are learning to track and create visual associations to sound (afterall, that is what reading is ;). Take your time with this process and give yourself grace. You truly do sound so beautiful.. angelic even. Thank you so much for sharing this. Listening to you sing was a lovely way to start my day! Keep going!!
