Week 34: Performance (Part 4)

Continuing my series on Healthy Practices regarding PERFORMANCE this week. Health Issues which can affect PERFORMANCE!
1. The singing voice is so easily affected by atmospheric changes such as temperature, diet, poor health & a number of other factors.
2. Expert vocal training & regular technical maintenance help the singer to overcome adverse effects when PERFORMANCE conditions are not ideal.
3. Always best to avoid situations which may put the voice under strain: Smokey Rooms, Loud Environments, or where Allergic Responses may occur.
4. Singers may have an allergic response to perfume/cologne/aftershave. Be considerate of other singers with your use of this in Performance.
5. Alcohol dehydrates the vocal folds & can impair the way they function. It is best to avoid drinking alcohol on Performance days!
