How to make a beautiful sad melody on piano?

Q. So my voice instructor is leaving soon, and i wanted to surprise her and write her a song and i have started, i have an idea of the lyrics, my problem is the melody, i have sad sounding piano chords like Cm Bb Fm Eb and the melody i sing along goes along with the chords, but im just not feeling that it is sad enough, i want it to really express beauty and sadness and grief....an tips?

A. Slow, minor chords with a perfect match of majors. Don't think too hard while making it, just use what you feel. If you don't feel sad just make yourself believe you're sad.

Original Question

How to improve singing voice back to standard after long break?
Q. So, I havent done any singing practice or piano practice in the holidays up to now. I want to get back fast, but i dont want to go through the thorough practice i did before. Any tips? Also, does chewing gum affect tone?

By the way, before the break i was able to hit really high notes in falsetto and without, now i cant accurately get them without going over. Plus I cant sing high and loud at all.

A. Strengthen you diaphragm. I hope you are singing from the diaphragm and not the throat. I studied voice and this was one of the first things my voice coach taught me. You get more power from deep down inside than from just the throat and you can blow out your vocal chords very easily by not singing correctly.

Original Question

How can I strengthen and expand my upper singing range?
Q. I have a singing instructor to help me, but I was looking for some tips/exercises to do on my own. I need to expand my range for an audition in a few months. I need to be able to hit the D above the staff, ideally. All your advice is much appreciated, thank you!!
I'm already a soprano, but I'm a mid-low soprano.

A. Do some lip trills first, go up and down by half tones, relax your throat and body, DO NOT PUSH YOUR AIR, let your breath and support work together naturally, then start going up, do a scale of 5 notes like: C D E F G F E D C, (DO RE MI FA SOL FA MI RE DO) up and down. and do up by half tones.

NEVER FORCE YOUR VOICE, think it easy and natural, feel your support working but do not push any muscle.

DO NOT SING LOUD either, this exercise is specifically to develop flexibility in your vocal chords. So you don't need to sing loud or scream, you need to do it Piano (Soft volume).

Do it every day for 5 to 8 minutes 2 or 3 times a day.

then when you sing, try to find the same sensation of the exercise while you are singing.

Drink a Lots of water take a vocal rest every day and do not talk loud, do not scream, walk 30 minutes or do any cardio or aerobic exsercise every day to create stamina in your mucles, that will help you to sing your high notes better too.

Hope this help.
