A sudden breakthrough


Lip trills are one of the essential practices of voice training, but I had been struggling with them.
I had put my index fingers on my cheeks to keep lip trills.
Without the fingers, I hadn't been able to do them.
However, I realised that the fingers on cheeks made my posture worse.

Today, I tried doing lip trills without fingers.
Then I was able to do them!!
I don't know why.
Lip trills require you to use more of the inner part of the lips than I thought.
I found it was similar to whistling.

Last week, my teacher told me to sing the highest note of the tune with lip trills.
I could do that today!!
Then I tried singing the whole song with lyrics, I could sing the highest note without struggle.
Amazing!!
