More often then not I have found talented individuals in my classes not singing or sharing monologues with their true voice. What is that true voice? It is that voice that we naturally communicate with and the part of our voice that sits in our chest comfortably. A great way to find "that" voice is by humming in a low register before beginning any sentence (try it now). This allows us to be on the breath and begin our monologue or song within our most natural quality of voice.
To breathe or have breath in our audition pieces also means the moments we give ourselves in our scenes or songs. The moments that give these pieces their true joy and light. What is the breath within your pieces and are you breathing correctly in each moment that you share in your audition. Do your pieces breathe honesty?
In those words "Just Breathe" I love how it reminds us to just let the moment be...sit back..or forward...or sideways...but most important...JUST BREATHE in the current.
Life is not so important that you need to sweat this moment...and to be honest you will probably get a better response...if you relax and breathe.
Breathing is so important in this life (yes, I know this is obvious) but if we can apply this concept to everything we do. We will be more successful in everything we put out into this world. That goes for those friends of mine who happen to have a 9-5 job.
So I invite you to simply find your breath in your next audition and interview...and breathe with more ease when you deliver.
