Feedback

@inkatieskitchen chose to have her feedback public, here's what I hear:

I like the clarity in your voice, and you can tell there's a lot of power in it! Singing opera is hard, and not everyone can do it, so kudos to you for choosing an opera aria! What I'd like to hear more of is the falsetto in your sound. Think of using all of your air for each phrase, even if it feels like oversinging at first. I know you know better than to "push" your voice, but right now it needs a little push to help smooth out the vibrato and make you feel grounded. Remember, both the chest and falsetto registers will work best together when they are at a comfortable loud volume (as long as they are supported). So focus on that as you sing. Be careful of descending phrases where the larynx wants to come up - that's when you need even more air to prevent that and keep the falsetto engaged! Overall, great work, Katie!

Thank you, @inkatieskitchen for singing! Let me know in the comments below if you'd rather receive your prize in 10SBD or a free 30-minute voice lesson.

If you have any questions, please let me know! Let's make this contest something that will take off and give the singers on Steemit more exposure and upvotes!
