What is Breath Support / Appoggio ?
Вставка
- Опубліковано 15 лип 2024
- Breath support and appoggio can be confusing for singers to really know if they are doing correctly.
Often, singers correlate more sensation in the body as being better- but sometimes this can lead to over-pressurizing the vocal cords from below. Learning to kinesthetically map the correct support sensations in the body goes hand in hand with optimizing phonation. When you change registration or phonation, you change the pressure system in the lungs. This subglottic pressure is also what dictates the kind of phonation/registration. So it is a positive feedback loop that must be balanced both at the support level AND at the phonatory level.

So glad to hear this!!
Fantastic explanation. Something here was completely new to me. And that was when you talked about the thick and thin fold. Thank you for sharing so generously.
Yay! You’re so welcome!
This was a great explanation! Thank you!!
Wow! Fascinating approach! I can’t even begin to imagine how far I am from ever achieving this, though. One rather baffling problem for me is running out of air no matter how soft and nonbreathy I try to hum. That can’t be right. Anyway, with the hiss it seems to work like it should.
I just found you now you absolutely cleared my confusion about appogio. Thanks so much you are amazing . And please make a video on how to develop vibrato if someone doesn't have by birth 😭😭
I am a bit confused… does this mean there is no muscle that needs to be tensed while singing? It is all just about air flow control which happens naturally? When I do the hissing exercises, I don’t feel any muscles doing anything in my abdominal area. Thanks so much! 🙏
Hi! So, the understanding of support is a bit complicated, and has to be felt, guided, and adjusted as your singing develops. In general, I would say absolute beginners may need to work on physical (abdominal and intercostal engagement), while advanced and professional singers may need to learn to resist the urge to engage too much subglottic pressure with the use of the abdominals. When you hiss, you should try to feel a light engagement in the abdominal muscles. Also, if you feel your lower ribs expand outwards, try singing and maintaining the sense of expansion. Let me know how that works for you!
