When to use Melismas?

Singers often use too many melisma in their songs. Mainly melisma should be sung a stressed point. It gives the soulful sound to the song. Often times, singers mimic other idolized singers which is a very amateur thing to do. Instead of being a replica of another person's voice, mimic the sound of piano, flute etc. or certain instrument. There are many musicians and singers who get caught up with wanting to sound like another person. Be an original, and it will stand out. When you sing, develop the song and gradually build. Exemplify strong pureness in your tones. Utilize songs that minister and touches the heart. The melody is an important component of a song, and if people leave a concert program with no melody, they have forgotten the song. That is why is important to keep your songs pure and simple. If you keep it pure and develop occasional melismas, you will grow, and it is more natural. Often times singer get caught up with overdoing it. Focus on the melismas at stressed points. The key thing is if the model of pureness and connection is conveyed, you will not have to feel for the melisma, because it will flow in the song. Professional singers, music coaches and teachers, know when singers have a planned moment of thinking to do a melisma because it usually does not come out as naturally, and the flow is not connected.  Although it is alright to do melismas consistently in practice to develop, know when to use them for balance.
