feed the little voice

Everything a singer could want to play with and practice might come under four headings. ?



North: rhythm
South: melody and vocal dexterity
East: Playing nicely with the kids (this would include harmony)
West: your instrument (this would include body, heart, mind, and soul. Tone. Honesty. Health. Exercises to get into the right place to sing from. How? Clowning? Singing and clowning? 


There might be something else... Something about form and structure, the overall shape of the improvisation. Is that something to practice?? Or is it more of a set of creative decisions to take about a piece in advance? Or during? ?????
