Lots of questions for you here... What exactly is happening when you descend thru the passaggio. What Handel aria is it? My suggestion is to imagine that you are *ascending* when you *descend* all the time, and it should feel like it keeps more head voice in it. What vowels do you do the sirens on? Do you modify in the passaggio?
