Guest Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 Hey all if you were trapped on an Island and had only 3 vocal exercises to practice what would they be? I would personally choose: Resonant Tracking Sirens On Training Vowel Tongue Trills Reason: fun, easy, effective, & dynamic! What would you choose and why? Remember... you would have to do them for a long time Note: its okay to choose the same exercise as someone else if coincidentally they are the same. - JayMC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adoney Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 If I was trapped on an island, would I only be able to drink saltwater? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 8, 2013 Author Share Posted January 8, 2013 If I could add 1 more it would be a twanger exercise, help to connect the voice and call for help. Maybe a NYAAAAAAAAA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ronws Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Mine would be: - Singing - Singing - Singing Reason: Because that's what I like to do. Amen, twin brother of a different mother. Although, if I could add one condition. As long as I was on this island, if I could have a cat. That way, I can swing the cat around by the tail and try to match the sound emanating from the cat. Truth be known, I do not swing the cat around. She's kinda feisty. It's just a funny image that pops into my mind, now and then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VideoHere Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 the question was what 3 vocal exercises..is singing an exercise in and of itself? a question to ponder...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adoney Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Okay next question... What is the elevation of this island? Also, what is the biodiversity of plant life and probability of spore-induced and other allergens being present? HONESTLY I would have to agree with -singing -singing -singing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronws Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 the question was what 3 vocal exercises..is singing an exercise in and of itself? a question to ponder...... Your right, I totally failed to answer the question, restricting to just vocal exercises. Resonant tracking, sirens, messa di voce. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 I think I would be more worried about surviving .. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigfoot Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 @Jay MC - lol!! The question is.. If I'm on an island by myself.. why do I need vocal exercises :-P hahahahahahahaha It's amazing how most singers can reduce their workouts to 2-3 exercises to give them most of their impact.. It's like the 80/20 rule I guess :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 9, 2013 Author Share Posted January 9, 2013 There are a lot of good exercises but the ones that are fun and keep you interested usually work out better. Singing can be done freely but only 3 vocal exercises are allowed on the island lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonpall Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Can the island be Hawaii? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronws Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 jonpall's question is the best. Let me add, can it be Hawaii, with the Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders? I would find that inspiring. The exercises I chose for this hypothetical question involve nothing really to do with scales. Things I do to warm-up, really. But, to each, his own. Some have to have scales and a set time of warm-up, others just blast away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
