Dear Reg, You wrote: Passe...."old fashioned...past its prime" Well I also am sorry you should find my directness not to your liking Les. *********************************************************** Please, no worries. I didn't find your use of the term support "not to my liking" at all. I try diligently to keep an open mind to other people's points of view. I've merely noticed that the term "breath management" seems to be more in common use (especially in academic studios) today than the term "breath support". I believe that is because respected educators like Richard Miller reject the term breath support. I reject nothing and I certainly am no Richard Miller. I am here to learn from people like you who I'm sure know much more than I ever will.
Now, I admit, I am a skeptic; I want reasons for everything but I wouldn't think that would be a problem for anyone who has reasoned through their pedagogy and has good reasoning to back it up. Shoot, I'd ask the same kinds of things of Richard Miller himself if I ever had the chance to meet him. I wish you all the best Reg. Regards, Les
