A Voice Lesson for Tai Chi Players

 

Music and t'ai chi share a lot in both principles and practice. Here, singer Joyce DiDonato coaches opera singer Amalia Avilán Castillo in a very tai chi-ish way....consistency, energy, aim, relax, whole self, whole body. You can watch DiDonato teach on these Carnegie Hall opera master class videos, and other venues online.
