Your a very nice person Jeff thank you for all your help !

Really helpful, especially the physical demonstration! Absolutely clear. Thank you!

This breathing exercise was brutally crucial to find and add to my warm-up, I've heard about the technique now I'm happy you dissect it for learning and practicing, thanks.

I feel so much difference in my voice after practicing your lessons Thank you so much jeff

Seriously, eh? Appoggio changed EVERYTHING about my singing - for the better. Thank you for watching! Enjoy! Jeff

I saw your video in the suggestions from another Appoggio video and I just couldn't help myself

Hi Jeff! First I just want to say thank you so much for doing this. I’ve been very insecure about my singing voice all my life and even more so since I went from a tenor to a baritone/bass last summer. After that I’ve never really been able to sing the same but with your videos I’m beginning to understand a lot more and I am forever grateful! Now to an actual question: I can’t seem to get the expansion and I don’t know what to do. Any tips on getting that to work? Thanks again and best wishes to you! :) -Victor P.S Sorry if my wording isn’t the best, English isn’t my first language

Great question! Your english is awesome, thank you for that! Getting expansion initially can be tricky. Try using your arms over your head or doing 'the lean' kzread.info/dash/bejne/eYOns9iyd7u0mc4.html Jeff

Thanks so much for this Jeff , just to clarify again we have to keep the diaphragm in the distended position all the time while singing ? During quick riffs does the same rule apply ?

@JeffRolka

I don't know if I would actually say distended. The diaphragm, believe it or not, is largely passive in singing. I realize, that runs contrary to most of what is talked about when talking about breath support. Please do not take my word for it. Read up on appoggio from Shirlee Emmons or Richard Miller. It was studying their work that helped me realize what was wrong with my singing and how to fix it. Best, Jeff

Sir when we expan ribs what is the movement of stomach plz guide me

Great explanation, thanks for these videos! Just a question on the expansion: what happens to the belly? Does it also have to stay expanded, or should it contract while maintaining the rib cage expanded?

Great question!!!! It's a bit more fluid, but still engaged, check this out for a demo: kzread.info/dash/bejne/o4hlzJWCnqjHm7A.html

Hi Jeff, I wanted to ask, should we still be aware of our breathing and ‘mentally’ make the decision while singing? Or should I trust my body to do it automatically as I’ve ingrained it during vocal exercises? Thank you! Soharm

A little bit of each really. Focusing on it during practice can be very helpful. Later it'll become habit, but you can always turn towards it if you find yourself having difficulties. Best, Jeff

Hey Jeff! Do the lower abs come in as you maintain this expansion? Thank you!

@JeffRolka

I suspect you might feel them engaging, but it's more persistent than explosive. That being said, physical sensations are subjective and it may feel different to you! Jeff

not easy!

What are the differences for male and female voices in appoggio?

The mechanics are the same, I offer two different ranges so that you can practice in a comfortable tessitura. Best! Jeff

Do you engage your stomach and let that sink backwards?

@JeffRolka

Not exactly. It's more of a persistent engagement of the core body muscles....

When we take in air we push the stomach backwards?and expand ribs

Not exactly. It does, however, depend a bit on the shape of your person. Mostly, mine remains in place, though I am conscious of engaging the muscles there. Have a look at this: kzread.info/dash/bejne/qXak1sNug9feeKQ.html Jeff
