1. The reason is that we can't hear ourselves properly
we have resonators on the nasal-pharynx and nasal cavity they are behind the ear, we can’t hear them well but they are best for sound-making and performance
we can’t judge it with accuracy
2. What judgement causes us?
a. Physical and Breath Tension
We can be judged by mass media, it is our culture
BUT judge may cause frustration and lack of growth
the act of listening & scrutinizing (仔細檢查) cause us to hold on
the performer should let it go and no judge on yourself
b. Pushing the voice
push the voice to hear it better, but won’t hear it as well and it won’t sound is good to you
not to push it just rely on the mechanics to make the sound good
3. we need the bad sound
a. for technique
we need cracking-bad sound to have a unique sound
we need cracking to make a mix
too good sound become yelling, too little the sound become a hissing
being able to find something between them is to mix
b. The uniqueness of singers
Eason also not having the prettiest sound
a little gravel (碎石), little breathlessness, little local fry
vibrato unique or uneven, or push too hard
having some strength in some area
which makes him remarkable
we don't need to sound necessarily the best
4. What to do about judgement?
a positive environment
with encouragement
tell yourself you can make it
have people you trust
ask for their advice
may okay with the experimentation and cracking
wide spectrum you can make in the performance
experiment with character sounds
we need physical relaxation
breath deep into the body
too high hard to relax
