• FOR BREATH SUPPORT

In doing these exercise, place your hand just below your ribs and feel the
front wall of your body expand and contract. It should expand as you
breathe in and contract as you breathe out

1. Inhale slowly; hold the breath without straining; then exhale slowly, watching the second hand of the clock. Can you reach twenty seconds in one exhalation? As you keep practicing this exercise, gradually increase your count, avoiding all tension, particularly in the throat.
2. Inhale slowly; as you exhale, whistle as softly as you can. For how many seconds can you continue to whistle steadily without taking another breath? Practice this and try to increase your holding power.
3. Inhale fully, and say ee softly as you exhale. Do the same with a, ah, oh, oo. Listen for wavering or irregularity in breath. Practice until the sounds come out in even flow

• FOR PROJECTING THE VOICE

When increasing the volume, do not raise the pitch . Keep an open
throat and a loose jaw. A rigid jaw causes unpleasant tones.

1. Try saying the sentence "Wait for me" to (a) someone just in front of you; (b) someone out in the hall (c.) someone in the back of the auditorium ( you are on the stage); (d) someone a half block from you on the street.
2. Count from one to twenty, increasing the energy and volume of each number. Reverse the exercise, beginning with a strong tone and gradually diminishing the volume.
3. Say, "This is the best voice that I can use." Try it first in unison in the class: then take your turn. Go around the class three times .

• FOR RESONANCE

1. Practice humming. Then say (a) me, ma, mo, moo; (b.) e, a, ah, oh, oo; (c) The wind is howling fiercely tonight; the icy gale has almost frozen my fingers.
