Choose your own sound – a vocal close up

Some singers are «the less I know - the better I sing» people - and I love them for it. One of my favorite singers in Les Miserables was like this. He just sang, and sang - so breathtaking and wonderfully night after night with great success and to standing ovation. Though, every time somebody asked me about a vocal chord issue or like best vowels for belting, he just ran from sight, like it already was the third battle in second act.
The big belt melting pot
One of my big obsessions these days is belting. I breathe, live and dream of being a big belter - to stand on stage and have this big show stopping moment - where my sound fills the whole theatre, and not only gives the audience shivers that run up and down their spines, but blows their ears out, and makes them feel like listening to a auditive version of Circe de Soleil.
Ground yourself

Ever since I came to New York, grounding seems to be an never ending story. First the fact, that we, as a family, are putting down new roots over here. Then the fun fact that nobody knows how to say my name, so I was call Grounded Guru in acting class, the whole of last week.
