Concluding my series on PERFORMING WITH OTHERS. I'm covering Singing in Ensembles this week.
1. When Singing in an Ensemble a singer may not be able to hear their own voice. This can be disorientating for the inexperienced singer.
2. The temptation may be to sing louder in order to hear yourself above the ensemble, & the voice may become pushed & tired because of this.
3. Singers should trust the sensation of singing & feel the voice working properly, rather than trying to hear themselves above the others.
4. Singers should understand that the art of ensemble singing resides in the blending of voices; the ensemble suffers If each voice competes!
5. Healthy practice dictates that singers should arrive at a rehearsal having undertaken their own system of warm-up appropriate to their voice.
