In this lesson I talk about dynamics within the song and how to use them to spotlight or enhance your singing. I will talk about the importance of singing in a range that is comfortable for you, not too loud nor too soft. In general, it is good to begin a song at quiet to medium volume so that you can gradually increase the volume within the song as you play.
I hope this helps your playing as much as it did mine.
