Few things are as important to singing as breath.
Like the brush strokes of an artist, each breath makes a statement. The pitches and words we sing are as obvious as looking at a painting of a tree. Beneath the surface, though, lies a subtle message. What makes an artist's rendition of a tree appear strong and majestic or weak and timid is the manner in which the paint was applied. The same is true for the breaths chosen to sing a song.
