Healthy Voice

 Lip Trill :
 As a singer you need to take care of your voice and your
entire body before singing begin.
 Good nutrition and adequate rest boost your immune
system, helping you avoid colds and other health problems
that will affect your Voice Usage.
Hydration is very important for helping the voice function at its optimum for
lessons and performances. During singing tasks, drinking room temperature
WATER is ideal (NOT COLD).
Warming up!
When you’re ready to begin practicing, you need to take
time to slowly warm up your vocal instrument so that it will be
ready for the demand that are about to be placed on it. It is
never recommended that a singer do an intense vocal demand
without first allowing the voice to properly warm up.
Exercises:
 Prepare your body before singing: You want to get your
entire body ready to sing, not just your singing muscles.
Try the following stretching routine.
1. Take a breath, and send the breath between your lips and
let them vibrate. If your lips don’t vibrate it’s probably
because they’re too tight.
2. If your lips are tight, place a finger at the corners of your
mouth and gently push the corner of your lips as you do
the lip trill.
3. Try to sustain the lip trill in 4 counts *repeat 5x*
4. If mastered, do the lip trill and produce a sound in one
pitch or note
 Breathing Exercise :
1. Long S : With a proper way of breathing, produce this
“ssss” focusing on making the sound stable and keeping
the volume constant.

time, try to do it as loudly as you can, expelling the air
through that small hole from your air balloon as quickly as
you can! SSSS!

sounds. “sss! sss! sss! sss! sss!”
