Chamber class

Attended chamber class yesterday at 陈氏书院..
It was quite special class for me..as I already missed most of the classes this year.
Everything my teacher, 岑老师 taught yesterday was the first time for me.

It is a new concept of singing, choir singing.
He took very long time to teach us to sing..oh no, not sing but blow our voice in above our 头腔 and without using 口腔 to create a voice that easily blend with other voices.
Doing this is not easy.
Using this blend voice to sing in choir, the effect is creating a 'voom' power above our head, under the ceiling. This 'voom' power can make audience 起鸡皮疙瘩 but the difficult thing is...持续, sustain the 'voom' power.

岑老师 started vocalize us by using 'throwing stone' voice, which is pitch from high to low, where our position from high to higher, using 'LU'.
Making this blend voice requires togetherness in every member.
If one failed to make the blend voice and it causes the 'voom' power burst.

When our voice was mature enough to run a song, which is 'Sakura', I was so shocking about the effect. I was like just cannot believe we made it.
The 'voom' power is just above my head and it is very nice.
Due to most of us were not in good health, we failed to sustaining the 'voom' power.

This phrase "Sakura, Sakura, Yayoino sorawa." In exact, this 4 bars, 岑老师 used 1 hour to help us complete it with the blend voice and also with the 'voom' power.
In fact, the effect still not very very good, it can be polished and make it more perfect.

岑老师 told us, 田小宝老师 more geng, one very short phrase can practice for 4-5hours.
岑老师 imitating 田老师's speaking style and say “不行，再来。不行，再来。”hahahaha...
田老师 is the one who doing research on this blend voice and the 'voom' power effect.
岑老师 spend more over 5 digits to attend 田老师's class and now teaching us for only 35bucks/4classes.

Teacher asked us to change our concept in singing.
It is not easy as Sunday mornings we are using normal traditional singing style but Sunday evenings we use blend voice. Quite...难做到.
Nevermind, who you can do this, you practice ba~!!
Create a new concept of choral singing.
