Opening Up About My Vocal Injury and Why I Left the Classical Music Industry


...from the perspective of a lady on YouTube who had a vocal injury and had to leave her classical performance career in a high pressure music industry.

I thought of sharing this because of our ladies, Hikaru and Wakana (she being interested in classical/opera), and the thoughts they must have gone through with the loss/changes in aspects of their voices, and having to wade through and eventually attempt tp reinvent themselves and accept what remained of their former natural voices.

In line with this, I have to say that I noticed Emiko struggled a bit with doing the top note in "black rose", probably being under more pressure to do it well than she would have had doing it in the studio (multiple takes, rest, ability to punch in/splice multiple takes).

She likes to sing with a lot of impact and do very high belts, so I just hope she regularly works with good vocal coaches and practices using her voice with lots of care so it serves her as long as possible.

I am also curious if the other ladies have had challenges with their voices over the years that they had to work through away from the public view.

Anyway, I felt a bit more conscious about their possible feelings and hopefully I can be more considerate when analyzing their future performances (especially the Kalafina live), while still stating my actual opinions and experience, whether I am delighted or not so pleased.
