I'm Melting! Melting!!
Clearly I'm a Broadway Musical Geek...
Anyway, the other point is that I'm finding that I'm losing my voice after an hour or so of singing, including warmups, and that shouldn't be happening. I used to sing for three hours straight with the Boychoir and come out of it with no strain or problem at all. Obviously I've developed some bad habits, but I don't know exactly what they are or how to fix them. In the meantime, I really need to increase my practice time; losing my voice after only one hour and then having to rest it the whole of the next day is really going to get in the way of that.
In the Extremely Unlikely Event that I got sent on to the Hollywood Hell Week after auditions, such a problem would be disastrous. Clearly it Must Be Fixed. But how?
Argh!
I don't suppose Blind Panic is a good remedy?

Deep breaths! It might be nerves so just try and relax (I know it's hard to do)
Deep panic would probably not help much of anything. I suggest a heavy chat with loverly voice teacher, and practice! Also, relaaax. Remember, you WANT to do this, yes?
I suggest nightly toddies with lots of honey and lemon juice.
Do not sing spuriously.
Practice in a focused way, working on certain things, and then stop.
I used to mess up my voice when I was younger singing everything over and over again all over the place all the time.
:D
