GUEST,kingbrill high & low imagery can mess up the voice (18) high & low imagery can mess up the voice 10 Jun 03


Hi all

Singing lessons are really weird - it seems like everything I thought I knew has been a bit flawed.

Latest revelation is that thinking of notes as "high" and "low" can really mess things up. Thinking of a "high" note can make you tense up your throat & put your larynx in the wrong place & all sorts.....

So - my teacher has me thinking "down" when the note pitch goes up & vice versa. After a bit it really does disassociate that up down thing & makes a vast difference to the quality. BUT - its a bit freaky then because you start getting confused as to which way is up & what is where.

Anyone else taking lessons & finding they have to re-jig their perceptions of sound?
