Singing I have only been singing in a choir, but I want to start singing solos. I don't know how to sing with the confidence and volume I need. I have a good voice, I just don't know how to use it. Can anyone help?

ok well first of all, congrats on wanting solos. so first of all what will help is basic stance.
** stand feet shoulder-width apart**
** back straight, head up**
** breath with your diaphram**
** knees slightly bent**
ok well then everyday practice your scales, this helps with being able to locate the pitch and note easily which will give you more confidence and the conductor will see that you are ready for a solo.
also practice the songs in all parts, the sops,altos,tenors, and baritones. that way your vocal range will increase giving you more opportunities for different solos.
then maybe ask your teacher for some one on one time so that way he/she knows how important the solos are to you.
while you are singing, pick a spot(if you are memorized with the song) and sing to that spot so you aren't so nervous.
Always have a big breath, fill up on as much air as you can, this will increase your volume and give you more air.
and when you have to go on a higher note or the climax of the song, push it as hard as you can go.i mean make it worth it, take a big breath before you do it so you can mesmorize the audience.
hope this helped..... if you need anything else just let me know.

Voice lessons can help you. It takes a little while to get everything perfected but they are good in the long run! <3 ]

I sing a lot so I know how you feel. The way to get better and get solos is to practice! I know its cliche, but seriously, practice makes perfect. I also STRONGLY advise you to take voice lessons if you dont already..it will help you SO much. Ive gotten so much better since I started taking voice lessons. Also, when you are told what the solo is try to learn it as best you can. The best thing you can do is to sing for people! Family, friends, etc. Ask them what you can change, practice, etc. Also that will help your confidence alot. For volume, you just have to imagine the old lady in the back of the room that cant hear. Ha, that helps me. ]
