I was wondering how some of you approach singing folk music...I am currently working on some south slavic folk songs and keep getting the comment from my teacher that my sound is nasal and not as nice a sound as when I sing classical rep. The folk music is stuff I have known all my life and sang as such, but now I want to prepare a set for a recital... I find I don't project as well when I sing in "folk style" but I think the timbre is better to my ear (however that in itself may be totally misleading) Any suggestions? Milena
