Agony
What is agony right now is that I have not been able to practice since school shut down almost a month ago. I can’t sing in my apartment. It’s not that anyone has asked me to stop, it’s that there’s no way I could vocalize at full volume - let alone since my soprano rep. I was working on “Ach ich liebte” for my recital...that thing has like 300 high Ds in it. I can’t sing that here. My voice clamps up, and I know after a while somebody would probably say something. L and I are supposed to continue lessons but it’s just not going to happen here.
My goal is to do light, middle range vocalizing for 10-20 minutes daily, starting today. Something I’m comfortable with - humming, straw singing, short scales on [u] and [i]. I literally haven’t done even that in weeks.
