THE VOICE CONNECTION
SOUND OFF

Welcome to The Voice Connection Sound Off; a forum for users of books like Raise Your Voice, Melody to Madness, The Ultimate Breathing Workout, and Unleash Your Creative Mindset, as well as a place for Vendera Vocal Academy members to interact.

This message board was created so that singers could come together and "sound off" to help support each other during vocal development and the creative process of unleashing the creative spark that occurs when writing and producing music. Currently, myself and vocal coaches Ben Valen, Ray West, and Ryan Wall are here to respond periodicially to your questions, with new vocal coaches coming soon. But, feel free to help each other too:)

This board is here for you to ask questions about my and my fellow coach's books, videos, and MP3 programs, as well as offer others help with our vocal techniques. You may also post videos of yourself and your band to share your music and ask for critiques.

Please refrain from negative comments, profanities, spamming, and inappropriate criticisms of vocal methodologies, vocal coaches, and singers. All negative posts will be deleted and subject to banning without question. I will not respond to negative posts, because, as Mark Twain once said, “Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience.” With that said, positive criticism is welcome because that is how you'll grow as a singer during the training process.

Re: 10 minutes per day...

If you only have ten min I would concentrate on breathing exercises to develop your diaphragm and work on vowel clarity using slides to connect your registers and sculpt your instrument in place so that using it properly becomes second nature.

Re: 10 minutes per day...

Hi Resonate,

I spent over a year in a similar position as you (10 mins per day + 1 day a week free to do 6-7 hours practice)

I still made great progress with my voice.

send me an email on phil.moufarrege@gmail.com and I'll send you some audio and things that I hope will help.

Thanks,

Phil

Re: 10 minutes per day...

Silly question but... do you drive to work? I got pretty good improvements by singing in my car, driving to work... :-P

Re: 10 minutes per day...

Alkis, I moved about 1 hour away out of the city a few years ago for that very reason! cheaper houses and it forced me to do my vocal exercises (even better actually because no one can hear me so I didn't have to worry about noise levels)

Re: 10 minutes per day...

Hi !

Thanks for your answers !
No, I don't need to drive to go to work, I take the bus ! and I don't really imagine me training my voice in there :D

I send you an email right now Phil, thanks !
