Bringing voice production back to basics for efficiency and longevity of vocal health. This workshop is aimed at any person working with their individual voice or other voices in high velocity settings, being in a classroom situation, choral conducting, choral singing etc. We will also talk about our understanding of blending from a mechanical/sound point of view. I will specifically pay attention to the physical understanding of volume dynamics and mouth space through posture, breathing, diction, and natural shaping of vowels.
