The Most Important Thing in Singing

When starting a new blog, you never know if readers will get past the first post. Thus, I decided that I should start this blog for singers by writing about the single most important thing that every singer should know.

The problem was, I had no idea what that was. Certainly many things came to mind; singing often and well, enjoying the process and art of singing, engaging and emotionally connecting with an audience; all topics I am eager to further explore in this blog. None of them, however, seemed so important when considered all by themselves.

The answer came to me a few weeks later, while meeting a friend in a local café to go over some Italian text I was singing.
