| Describe FVF constriction and retraction | The FVFs engage and cover/protect the true vocal folds when swallowing, lifting and and stretching. If FVF closure happens hen singing the tone will be percieved to be strained and the singer will feel a tightening in their larynx. The FVF MUST be retracted during singing, especially as the pitch rises. Retraction of the FVF feels like the position of a laugh inside the larynx. |
| Describe recoil breathing for singing | Duribg inhalation the lower abdominal muscles must be relaxed so the diaphragm can descend freely, allowing air to flow into the lower part of the lungs, which in turn will be felt in the lower back and floating ribs. During exhalation the diaphragm should slowly return to its natural position, allowing a steady stream of minimum breath to leave the body. Control of the diaphragm is achieved by engaging external muscles to slow the descent. |
