More Vibrato

Gradually, with the recognition of the diaphragm and the intercostal musclesyou start, quite deliberately to learn vibrato.So rather then a vibrato being a natural form of expression individual toeach person, it was taught to me as a very deliberate and worked on mode ofexpression which took some time to master.I find it interesting that singing teachers don't use vibrato exercises invocalise. There is a notion that this should be a " natural " consequence ofproper vocal training and therefore unneccesary to teach. I completelydisagree with this view as singers must be made aware of all the musculatureinvolved in securing his or her vibrato.
