You’ve probably heard someone say that singing is “all about the breath.” It’s a simple saying that belies a surprisingly multifaceted practice.

In this episode, I explain

1. How breathing precedes every sound we make with the voice (and why we often don’t notice).
2. What’s going on anatomically as your brain, breath, and body collaborate to produce sound.
3. Exercises you can use to understand and direct the possibilities of your breath.
