Welcome to the Singing Page

Welcome to Mr. E's Singing Page!


This blog was designed as a teaching tool for Mr. Eichenberger's vocal and choral students. Students should feel free to ask and answer questions, suggest and comment on music, and share pertinent information with their online peers. On this page you can find a variety of class information: assignments, travel itineraries, weekly discussions, and rules and regulations.

Posture




When a singer has excellent posture very few will notice but if the posture is poor, it is one of the first things that a judge will mention. Very few beginning students use perfect posture and many have little knowledge about what correct posture is. I describe to most students that correct posture should include a high sternum, straight spine, and shoulders rolled back. The preceding diagram shows many forms of bad posture. Please describe what happens to the singer's breath mechanism when you have poor posture. Which of the examples best matches your posture when you first began studying voice.
