Hi Rick:
Tongue/jaw and neck tension is a huge problem for me. I have been combating
it for years but have not kicked it completely.
I enlisted the help of a good massage therapist who understands my problems
and that has helped considerably.

Subject: [vocalist-temporary] Tongue Tension
Hello everybody!
I read Colin Reed's explanation regarding tension in the nostrils very
carefully, and also how the tongue is involved in tension generation.
Consequently, I have questions regarding tongue tension: I have heard from
many sources that relaxing/releasing the butt/fanny/bum (etc,.) is something
that is good to do but I never knew why (I heard that even one of the great
tenors, either Caruso or Gigli practiced this technique). What other ways of
relaxing the tongue/jaw are there? what do you do if you feel tension creep
up on you, specially while you are singing? Does the tongue have some sort
of connection (muscles/nerves) with the lower pelvis or muscles of the butt
region? Perhaps there is a real neuromuscular connection? I am extremely
curious. Has anybody else heard of releasing/relaxing the butt? I certainly
have.
Thanks,
Rick
