Hi Mike,
Yes, yes, I see what you're saying!! What I should have said I guess, that yes, although the air has to escape through the nose on a closed mouth hum, the palate (by the way, your spelling was fine!!) doesn't have to drop right down. It can still be up with just a small sliver of space for air to escape. Indeed, hardly any air should be being used in any case.
I sing all styles of singing (rare I guess?) and hardly ever does my palate drop. Still, that could be a matter of taste as much as anything!
Best wishes,
Ian Voice wrecker to the stars!
