Bernard This is fascinating, because at our last support meeting, our guest was a speech therapist, and she told us almost the same thing. But she added that we should breathe from the diaphragm. Then we should beat out the rhythm of each syllable - or tap on a knee, as we said each syllable, concentrating on pushing the air out from the diaphragm. It does make the voice louder, and the articulation clearer - and it has also improved my singing voice no end - much to the annoyance of my exercise class yesterday - we exercised to such lovely music, i just had to sing along!
