Re: How Loud Should We sing
Really, I have been told a tid bit of information, and it seems to hold true with studying all kinds of singers. Mediocre singers are just as loud, or barely louder, than talking. Great singers are loud, but can be quiet and whispery as well.
Your volume is a by-product from the sound you want, and a few other factors, namely (to my experience) support, and the amount of chest you want in it. Play around. Being able to use all volumes is a very good thing.
