Summary

This study tests whether combining semi-occluded vocal tract exercises (like phonating through a pipette) with breathing exercises (pursed-lip, segmental, and diaphragmatic breathing) can improve how long conservatory students can sustain a note and their overall lung function. Participants will do these exercises twice a week for six weeks. The goal is to see if these simple, non-drug techniques can enhance vocal performance and respiratory health in voice students.
