Breath Control Exercises for Singers (ep 021‪)‬ Open Mic UK Artist Development

    • Music

Breath control is about using your diaphragm to fill your lungs with air and then gradually release it. Breath control exercises help you improve your lung capacity and power your high notes without losing too much breath on one note.  



Great breath control is very important for developing your vocal range, quality of tone, ability to hold on to notes, but also for your rapping skills. As hip-hop becomes more popular in pop music, many top singers such as Ed Sheeran and Ariana Grande are incorporating rapping into their music. It’s not just big ballads that need sustained and strong support. Fast songs required a very specific technique to ensure you stay on top of every note and lyric.
