What styles are you referring to? As I told you in private I'm reading Alan Greene's The New Voice and he makes a point to lower the soft palate, which is contrary to all the teaching, reading and practice I've had. Do you refer to country music only? BTW, I had a teacher who insisted that we should raise the soft palate, mostly for higher notes, and at the same time said we should sing higher notes sending air through the nose ( the same as Jeffrey Allen says in his Secrets of Singing ). The point here is clear: how can you do both at the same time?
Best regards,
