Practicing Singing in Your Head for a Better Performance
Imagine the technique, and it becomes a reality!
Of course, it’s never that simple, but if you’re a singer who’s well-trained in foundational best vocal practices, you don’t need to practice out loud as often as you think.
We all know the saying “practice makes perfect”, but studies have shown that singers don’t need to rely on consistent practice to achieve the vocal quality they need. Certain parts of the brain are overactive according to the skills necessary to sing and perform. These skills are stored in certain areas of the mind, and simply imagining them triggers the brain to summon the necessary muscles for the performances that singers need, and want them to be.
Three areas of the brain that work and store information:
Primary motor cortex, which is responsible for telling the muscles in the body what to do, such as the how the mouth should be positioned, how relaxed the throat muscles, tongue and neck should be, and body posture in order to have full and non-constricting vocals.
The dorsolateral prefrontal cortex stores and administers memory. Singers multitask all the time when they perform. One performance alone requires at least 10 different simultaneous action to occur on stage. To name a few, remembering the lyrics,melody, musical breaks, appropriate emotions, posture, expressions, movement, eye contact, breathing spots, cues with the accompanist, and the list goes on. They have to be the director, actor, producer in one body. The dorsolateral prefrontal cortex also permanently stores these techniques as mandatory actions that need to be conducted in order for the performance to be successfully carried out.
Inferior parietal cortex allows people to analyze their surroundings with mapped out spatial information to create appropriate coordination.
