THIS APRIL, I WILL BE COMPLETING MY TWO YEARS LONG JOURNEY WITH SOUL OF MUSIC !!
BEFORE I STARTED MY MUSIC CLASS, I NOTICED THAT I GOT A SHARP STRAIN IN MY THROAT WHEN I GOT TO HIGH PITCHES. MY VOICE WAS NOT VERY CLEAR AND I MESSED UP WITH THE TUNE. I DIDN’T KNOW THE LYRICS VERY WELL OR THE SWARAS. NOT ONLY THESE WERE PROBLEMS WITH MY VOICE, BUT I WAS ALSO TIMID TO SING.
THEN I JOINED MY MUSIC CLASS, I NOTICED THE STUDENTS TALK FREELY ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED IN THEIR DAILY LIFE. THIS REDUCED MY SHYNESS AND THE FUN PART IS THAT WE DO EXERCISES BEFORE WE MOVE ON TO FURTHER WARM-UPS AND SINGING.
THE DID BREATHING EXERCISES, AND LIPS AND TONGUE DRILLS. AND THE TEACHERS MADE FUN WARM-UPS. THE TEACHERS AT SOM TAUGHT SO MANY SONGS. THE BEST PART IS THAT THEY TAUGHT ALL LANGUAGES. ENGLISH, MALAYALAM, HINDI, TAMIL, PUNJABI, AND MANY MORE. TE ALSO LEARNED SIGHT SINGING. ThE TEACHERS TAUGHT US THE BASICS, MAJORS, AND MINORS, STAFF NOTES, AND TIME SIGNATURES.
” DIDN’T KNOW ANY OF THESE THINGS BEFORE I JOINED MUSIC CLASS. ABOUT THE THROAT PAIN I HAD A WHILE AGO IT’S NO MORE.
THE WARM-UPS HELPED ME TO REDUCE IT. RADHIKA MAM TAUGHT US ABOUT SINGING FROM THE STOMACH.
I USUALLY SANG FROM MY NOSE BEFORE.OVERALL MY VOICE HAS BECOME MORE CLEAR, MY PRONUNCIATION IS MUCH BETTER AND IM NOT SHY A SINGLE BIT ANYMORE. ABOVE ALL, THE KIND OF APPRECIATION ” GET WHILE T UPLOAD MY VIDEO SONGS IS TREMENDOUS WHICH MAKES ME MORE CONFIDENT.
A BIG THANK YOU TO ALL OF MY TEACHERS AT SOUL OF MUSIC FOR HELPING ME IMPROVE MY SINGING.
