She also published a revised edition of vocalises written by her teacher Mathilde Marchesi, and a revised edition, with new piano accompaniments, of a collection of eighteenth-century arias. ❋ Unknown (2009)
The role of the unseen chorus also felt diminished; in Paris, its wordless vocalises were amplified and mixed to surround the audience, intensifying the nightmare. ❋ Unknown (2008)
Despite the thick green fell hat she wore, Secca felt soaked all the way through, but she watched, and hoped, and began to warm up, hoping the vocalises would work amid all the rain and chill. ❋ Modesitt, L. E. (2001)
"You need to practice the vocalises, the ones with the 'eees, " because you're still swallowing your voice too much. ❋ Modesitt, L. E. (2001)
Then she began to run through the warm-up vocalises. ❋ Modesitt, L. E. (2001)
She took a slow breath and resettled herself in the saddle, trying to ignore the dull cramps and nausea that persisted, and attempting to warm up with a series of softer vocalises she hoped would not carry, or not too far. ❋ Modesitt, L. E. (2001)
Before she finished a pair of vocalises, Wilten, Palian, and Delvor had joined them. ❋ Modesitt, L. E. (2001)
In between her own vocalises, Secca went over spells in her thoughts as they continued to ride through a morning that seemed too bright and too fresh for the battle that lay ahead, First, they needed to repair the road, then deal with Mynntar. ❋ Modesitt, L. E. (2001)
Secca had finished three vocalises, and the tuning and warm-up melodies were fading away, when Richina spoke. ❋ Modesitt, L. E. (2001)
Palian and Delvor had the players running through warm-up melodies, while Secca and Richina worked on vocalises. ❋ Modesitt, L. E. (2001)
She slipped away, down the corridor to the smaller workroom where Richina was drilling Jeagyn and Kerisel in the simpler vocalises. ❋ Modesitt, L. E. (2001)
Anna tried another set of vocalises, ones that weren't too loud. ❋ Modesitt, L. E. (1999)
While she bathed, Anna sang a set of vocalises to warm up her voice. ❋ Modesitt, L. E. (1999)
She nodded and took out the lutar, beginning her vocalises, as she tuned the instrument. ❋ Modesitt, L. E. (1999)
After several more vocalises, she straightened and concentrated on the first spell, and on the set of designs on the table. ❋ Modesitt, L. E. (1999)
She propped the travel mirror between two raised and gnarled roots, then began a series of vocalises. ❋ Modesitt, L. E. (1999)
Next came the vocalises, and more coughing and mucus than she would have liked. ❋ Modesitt, L. E. (1999)
Next came the vocalises to clear her cords of dust, and the mucus from allergies that Brill's youth spell had done nothing to remedy. ❋ Modesitt, L. E. (1999)
Once inside, she paused, then ran through a set of vocalises. ❋ Modesitt, L. E. (1999)
Anna offered a crooked smile as she turned and began a last series of vocalises as the players tuned. ❋ Modesitt, L. E. (1999)
