I begin today's practice in the Kafi tappa "aa gumani aa jaa" with soft-voice exercises, keeping my lips lightly together and humming five- or six-note paltas up and down (while keeping their sargam equivalents front and center in my mind). My voice is a little hoarse around the passaggio but I keep at it and things smooth out after about ten minutes, when I open up a bit. 3/
