Hi group,
I wanted to give you some great advice that I received from Sherrill
Milnes in a master class. Mr. Milnes said that you shouldn't sing
for 24 hours after a performance. He said that the chords get
swollen and out of shape, and it takes 24 hours for them to heal.
He was so steadfast about his advice that he didn't sing one note
during the class. I suck on a lot of ice cubes now, which I hope
is good? I have also heard that taking any medication that numbs
the throat can damage your chords? Does anyone else have any
good tips for protecting your vocal chords?
Steve
P.S. I attribute vitamin C for keeping my chords strong, and I take
it every day.
