Marking Breaths is a Great Idea !

7/13/2015

 
Have you ever driven in the desert and come across one of the road signs that reads "Last gas, food and water for the next 125 miles"? You would be very foolish to ignore this sign if your gas tank was nearing empty! Ignoring a breath mark can be like ignoring this sign...when you mark in breaths, TAKE THEM. You will be so much more comfortable sticking to your plan. AND, you can prevent mistakes simply by staying on track with your breaths. Whenever we stop for any error, we always breathe, so missing a breath sometimes results in our brain 'deciding' to make us stop for another reason, thereby getting that breath once we come to a stop. Decide on your breathing places according to musical, phrasing requirements, and stick with your plan.
