In this masterclass, Maarten Koningsberger discusses breathing and expression in “S'altro che lagrime" from La Clemenza di Tito. He works with Jeanne Lefort on preparing her singing with effective breaths that allow her to engage her diaphragm properly. He offers sage advice on practicing, cautioning her against continuing to sing phrases that have not begun with strong breaths. He also advises that when she finally achieves the sound she strives for, she must commit the feeling in the body to memory through repetition, so it becomes a habit. The goal is to automate this physical sensation, so then the focus can turn to musical expression.

He also helps Lefort become more intentional with her musical lines. She can use the text to determine which word in the phrase to aim for, but must be careful not to aim for high notes simply because they are high. Additionally, the pair work on capture the intensity and emotion through diction rather than loudness.

What we learn:
Using diction rather than volume to express intensity and emotion.
Remaining on a speaking level while singing.
Keeping high notes inside the phrase and the body by sucking in the air.
Using the breath in as preparation and breathing expressively.
Always knowing where the musical line is leading.
