Bethany Freeman: Five Scale Warm-Up
http://bethanyfreeman.weebly.com/voca...
This was not my best warm-up. I realized after I was seeing this again that I was singing too slowly, which would naturally exhaust the voice all on its own. I also started out too loud. This explains the straight-tones that you hear. I was just wearing out my voice too fast from trying to over-push & sing everything. I was also in a rush & didn't have much time to do this video so naturally, the back of my throat was pretty closed. That is why, even though this isn't a song, when you are performing a song & you are nervous, it is good to practice it 1,000 times before so that way even if your breathing may be short from nervousness, your muscle memory can start to kick in. You can sing a piece right no matter how you feel. You've just got to decide how hard & how many times are you willing to work, in order to achieve that, as do we all.
