1. Breathing– there are two sides of
breathing; inhaling and exhaling. Both play an
important role in singing. Breathing is a natural
biological function but you can control how you
breathe in order to develop your best singing voice.
Learn how to expand your lung capacity, control your
exhalation, and release air without making noise.
2. Controlling tone quality-
the timbre of the voice describes its tone quality. Some
singers refers to “head and chest” voice. Generally, the
lower the pitch, the lower its resonates. The voice often
breaks and the tone quality changes on certain pitches.
The key is to realize that the register are not actually
separate mechanism, just have different levels on a continuous
scale.
3. Posture- proper posture promotes efficient
breathing which is essential to projection, tone
quality, and vocal range. The ideal posture for
singing is erect yet relaxed. Overall good health and
physical fitness are also important.
4.Vocal range- one major goal of every
singer is to have a well-developed and impressive
singing range. In order to achieve this, a
singer should establish good vocal habits in the
most comfortable placement of the voice and
then slowly expanding the range.
 5. Endurance- singers are expected
to perform well even it will take an hour or
more to perform. Endurance is expected from
singers who also practice long hours to give and
good and memorable performance.
