Description:
Welcome to your tutorial on building vocals after strain or injury. Most singers watching this will not develop vocal damage that requires surgery. But, most of us will get a cold, or cough that lingers for a few weeks; most of us will experience vocal fatigue; and all of us can attest that some days our voice feels better than others.
This tutorial will be broken down into three parts. In part one, Camille will walk you through some questions, and self tests to determine whether you need to see a doctor or not, and what your underlying issue could be. Part two will teach gentle, and effective exercises to rebuild your vocals. Finally, in part three, Camille will discuss prevention from future injury, or strain.
