Week 31: Performance

Covering Healthy Practices regarding PERFORMANCE over the next few weeks: Building Stamina, Importance of Rest, Warming Down, Health Issues.
1. Performances vary in their demands on the singer. For example: Delivering a folk song is far less energetic than singing an operatic aria!
2. Folk to Opera: The necessary years of technical training, building of vocal stamina & repertoire to performance standard is vastly different.
3. Daily practice routines are vital in maintaining the stamina levels sufficient to meet the demands of a performance practice.
4. Singers must build the strength to sustain whatever demands a performance may require during the rehearsal period as well as daily practice.
5. Musical Theatre Singers when performing 8-12 shows per week soon deteriorate if operating without a solid technique & daily maintenance.
