Keep your spine straight and try to keep your face forward while performing. You might find that you naturally turn your head upwards or downwards while trying to reach certain notes on the outer limits of your vocal range. Try to resist this urge -- it will only distort your pitch and make it more difficult for you to recover your breath control. Current New York jazz vocalist Cyrille Aimee improvises in the classic straight-ahead tradition, often cleverly inserting quotes from other tunes in the way that Ella Fitzgerald would. You’ll explore the voice in both a technical and practical context, gaining a more thorough understanding of how vocal anatomy can enrich your singing ability. You’ll discover simple techniques to keep your voice healthy, and learn to embellish songs with different vocal stylings as you improve your confidence and enhance your stage presence. One of the first outlaw country singers, the “Big Iron” singer Marty Robbins’ prolific career lasted over 40 years, recording more than 500 songs.Over the next nine years, winters were spent in Paris (where the couple maintained separate apartments) and summers at Sand’s estate at Nohant in central France, where their visitors included the novelists Honoré de Balzac and Gustave Flaubert, the mezzo soprano Pauline Viardot and the painter Delacroix, who painted a portrait of Chopin and Sand together; though the picture was sawn in two after the artist’s death, it remains the best surviving image of the composer. In the 1840s Chopin sat for at least a couple of daguerreotypes, the early form of photograph that became so popular in France at that time, but those were lost during the second world war. Another daguerreotype, made in 1847 and rediscovered in 2016, is claimed to be of the composer.

Find other people to perform with, whether that’s in your home, at school or in groups with friends. It’s much more fun to have a go together. While it might not feel like a singing technique, taking the time to relax your body might help air flow more freely and make for better performance. Stress in the body can cause the vocal muscles to tighten, causing you to sing breathy or lose support altogether. While it's easier said than done, practicing and training yourself to settle while performing is an incredibly effective vocal technique. Another way to warm up your voice is to jump from one octave to the next while singing. This can help you learn how to hit high notes and move from middle voice to mixed voice, to head voice with ease. Trumpeter & vocalist Louis Armstrong is generally regarded as the inventor of scat singing in jazz.In contemporary jazz, the voice might be used as part of the ensemble, even if the piece has no lyrics.
