Thanks a lot, beghelli! Sorry about the mouse clicks, I had my mouse right by my microphone and didn't realize it would be so audible in the recording. :-( I have been learning to play guitar too, so I'll try to sing along with that. I find I have trouble matching a pitch at all though. I'll try to sing louder; I am by nature a very shy person, and even doing this much is running up against psychological blocks. >_< I'll focus on conserving breath too, so I can do the lip row things for longer than a few seconds at a time. Is it normal to feel a lot of vocal fatigue? Going through these exercises seems to really weaken my voice. Thanks again!

Hello everyone! I started practicing singing about 5 months ago, and I've been diligent about practicing 30 minutes to one hour a day. I mostly focus on scales and lip trills. However, progress has been slow and I worry I may be worsening even! If you could take the time to listen to a few minutes of an average practice session, and give me feedback as to its efficacy, I'd be most appreciative! Here is the recorded session (with time codes in the description): Thank you so much!
