Journeys: Diaphragm. Stop 5

Feather

Hold your finger to breathe in, and let go to blow. The longer the breath, the higher the feather. Fly through the rings, but not into the cloud!

Up it goes! The diaphragm decides how much air you breathe out.

The feather is falling! Blow.

Oh, into the cloud! Breathe in less.

That is how singers hold a long note. The diaphragm lets the air out evenly, bit by bit.
