Vocal Warm-up Routine – Piyashi Sengupta’s Daily Practice

🌅 Every Day Begins With a Song

For me, vocal warm-ups are sacred. It’s like greeting your own voice with care before sharing it with the world.

Whether you’re rehearsing for a concert or humming casually at home, a consistent warm-up routine keeps your voice healthy and performance-ready.

Here’s what my daily vocal ritual looks like 👇

🔄 1. Lip Trills & Humming (5–10 minutes)

Start with gentle lip trills or hums. They stimulate the vocal cords without strain and improve airflow. Great for easing into your vocal range.

🎼 2. Sa Re Ga with Slow Breath Control

Next, I sing basic scales (Sa Re Ga Ma) slowly while focusing on long, steady breaths. This is crucial for tone control and lung strength.

🔔 3. Sirens & Arpeggios

I glide from low to high notes and back using vowel-based sirens. Then I do arpeggio runs to stretch and stabilize my range across octaves.

💨 4. Breathing Drills

A few minutes of diaphragmatic breathing (inhale 4 counts, hold 4, exhale 6–8 counts) improves support and reduces vocal fatigue.

❄️ 5. Cooldown is Just as Important

After long sessions or performances, I finish with soft humming and descending scales. It relaxes the cords and prevents strain.

💡 Tips to Keep in Mind:

• Always warm up before long rehearsals or recordings
• Avoid cold drinks or shouting after practice
• Stay hydrated throughout the day
