okay i've only been in choir for one semester, and i tried out for this solo yesterday. The solo was supposed to be sung in tenor, and im normally a bass but i sung it in tenor. my teacher was really impressed for some reason, and i beat out like 8 other choir kids. the thing is, it takes a pissload of air support for me to maintain tenor, and i've been practicing it alot during these past few days and my vocal chords feel like poo. the solo is only 15 seconds long but it takes alot out of me. is there any tips you guys could recommend for maintaining air support, and making sure i dont bust my chords before the show which is in 2 days. i have to do the solo in 3 seperate performances. any tips in general would be appreciated.
