The Technique of Singing
BY MYRON W. WHITNEY

the necessity OF doing so. Each act
which goes to make up good singing
must become habit upon which we
may rely without having to give IL
any thought. We have seen that
habit is formed by means Of sensa.
tions which are recorded i'm the mem-
ory. To hasten the establishment OF
a habit we must know the sensatic.
which is to be Teit.
If students ambition is TO be a
professional singer and an artist, his
training and study must not he by
any means confined to his singing les
sons and his practice. We will not.
however, consider here his supple
mentary studies. but merely his
period of practice.
He should divide this period Into
number of parts. Scales-Solfesg

hini. or any of the good old standard
booksl-and songs. It is mistake to
spend two or three years on exercises
before taking up songs.
The part of the period devoted to
scales and solfeggi may be best de-
voted 10 making a habit of correct
technique few minutes given to
managing the breath-then few TO
the iaw-tfen the tongue, etc. Do
not try to do two things at once. Sol
feggi add TO the problems of technique
that of acquiring the ability to read
music easily. and the recognition of
the sentimental significance of
melody. Some part of each practice
period should be given to voice color.
For instance. take any series of notes
and endeavor TO sing them in different
ways. so that any listener may be

This is not entirely matter of vocal

10 learn the music. The melody first,
hut not forgetting that a song Is
written not on one staff. but on three.
Learn the music without singing.
Nothing is so fatiguing to the voice
as singing music which Is not
familiar.
Then take the words Read them,
and then declaim them with distinct
ness and expression. Now you are
ready TO put the song together. Study
the mood of the song and let the
agindtion establish its images OF
sound and vision. which together make
the necessary illusion. Do not waste
time and energy in perfecting the
parts Of the song which have technical
difficulties. by singing the whole song
over and over. Study the difficult
part separately. and then fit It in.
Learn everything by heart as quick
" as possible. Accuracy of memory
Is very important.
Above all things. he humble. Do

. HIS being the last OF this series
of articles on singing, I shall
devote it TO a brief recapitula-
4 ton of the method and to

4 ton of the method and to
some ideas on study.
0) To 'inhale-1et down the dia-
phragm as though it were a piston
within a cylinder, taking care that
the breath begins to enter the lungs
as the diaphragm begins TO descend,
and that the chest does not begin to
expand until the diaphragm has COM
pleted its descent.
(2) To exhale-Expand the chest
laterally and hang up the breath
under the armpits. Keep 1t there
while singing; the stomach caved in
without resistance; the sensation
resulting being one OF suction. or in
halation. and the general thought
based upon this sensatiOn-that the
voice Is. pouring into the body from
a distance.
t3) The larynx-Leave it alone. Do
not depress nor raise il.
(4) Vocal Chords-Do not try to bite
the tone with them either in attack or
while sustaining the tone. and do not
begin the tone with an RI.
Is, The jaw--Open the mouth by
lowering the whole jaw and not
merely the front teeth. The sensa-
tion is as though there were nut
between the upper and lower teeth at
the back. A little, too. as though the
dentist had asked to see your lower
back teeth. Do not pull the jaw back.
II held slightly forward. especially for
the vowels EE and AY. it helps the
tongue to the forward position neCes-
sary for making the vowel mold. The
Jaw is dropped more for high notes
than for low ones.
(sl The tongue-Spread wide TO
overflow the lower teeth at the sides.
Bulk of it forward. Always loose and
soft, but always conscious of the pro
nunciation. Vowel mold very near
the front teeth to make the voice
stand out of the mouth.
a. Soft palate Tor passage from
mouth to noseHPassage always open
in such manner as to make the
nasal y. Back of the throat behind
soft palate spread wide lest the sides
Of the throat pinch in on the tone.
Soft palate neither raised nor lowered.
(a Lips-Used as little as may be in
pronunciation lest the voice take on
the CLOSED timbre." Some slight at
tempt to keep the lips away from the
teeth for brilliancy of tone, but not
exaggerated.
Singing is physical exercise. and
the muscles used in singing respond
to conditions of health and fitness in
the same way that the muscles used
in running do. The voice reflects ia
tigue of the body, or the lethargy
which follows repletioD, or sickness,
Immediately and Enthusiastically. Exer-
else. moderation in all things. and
calm and cheerful philosophy will
pretty we'll keep the voice in order.
Of rff
great latitude for individual methods
and training.
The principal thing to bear In mind
is that we are so constructed intel
lectually that it is impossible to con-
centrate the attention upon more than
one thing at a time.
The ability 10 concentrate properly
in study Is very rare, but 1t Is possible
to acquire this ability If we recognize
