Singing vowels.


Question Posted Friday March 14 2008, 5:13 pm

In chorus, I've been holding myself back.
My teacher is always telling me to open my vowels, but I feel as if I'll look silly doing so. I look fine when doing it at home, yet I'm having trouble doing it once I get in the chorus room. Any piece of advice to let go of this petty fear?

You need to remember when your singing that everyone is doing the same thing you are. Just make a HUGE O with your mouth and sing your best!
Try to remember were you put your mouth when you are at home. Just keep trying and trying and dont ever give up!

Hope my advice will give you some help!

Swoods7 had good advice.I always wanted to sing but couldn't carry a tune in a bucket.My music teacher told me to just move my lips and make no sound.I think without knowing it invented lip-sync.A couple of times when I forgot,she made me go stand in the hallway.I really envy people who can sing.My advice is to go for the gusto,sing your heart out no matter where your at or who's listening.Remember that there are people like me who can only whistle a tune.

im in chorus to and i have a teacher who is also a perfectionist. its good that your practicing at home but at school you are afraid of what people are going to think about you if you do it. i like to call this the "imaginary crowd"
at the end of the day no one is gonna care if you made silly faces in the class. take it from someone who went through the same thing. i eventually told myself that no one cares and it got me to where im in honor chorus and i get to travel all over the country and miss school for free!
hope i helped
