Hello Timo! Love your videos! Can you please clarify your breath support technique? So to produce sound do we use the air that diagram pushes from the lungs while naturally ascending/contacting and we control the "speed" of its ascention with rib cage? How is it possible to do a staccato with this technique or am I missing something? AndI have two problems with this approach. First, I'm getting out of breath fairly quickly. Is it an indication of insufficient lung capacity for singing (I have extensive swimming and running background) or am I doing it wrong?And second problem is that my heart beats against diagram and this creates push of air to which my vocal cords react. Any suggestions are welcome, thank you!
Hi there, thank you! I made a video about breath support you can find it here: th-cam.com/video/cmoxIucLy8w/w-d-xo.html Your rib cage basically stays open as long as you are singing a phrase to hold an inhaled state. You can sing legato or staccato with that (staccato is a little more challenging). The fact that you are running out of air quickly could be a sign that you are loosing too much air while you sing. This can happen even if your rib cage stays open. Your second problem could also disappear if you start singing with less air. I have another video about this, feel free to check it out: th-cam.com/video/IS8ozd6uHSc/w-d-xo.html

Thank you, Tim. That cleared up a lot of doubts
Glad it helped! 😊
Timo, thank very much! I am annoying and learning from your videos. ❤
Thank you very much. You are not annoying at all, I really appreciate your feedback. ☺️
@ Thank you, Timo. Breath support is a very slow process for me. You explain things very well. ❤️
thank you so much!
You are welcome! 😊
