    I've seen lots of beginners trying to go higher by increasing volume substantially; this is a huge mistake and if you find yourself doing it, just stop! The right muscles need to be used, but in pop singing that's not common (as it is in opera). The "trick" is not to sing with high volume, IMO, after learning opera type technique.

      But while singing the upper octave notes for example from A#4 - 5th octave, volume will be high. My range is G2-E5 chest voice G2-A4 head voice A#4-E5, falsetto upto A5. Whenever i sing the upper octave notes, i feel like my volume is high, you can't sing these notes without an open throat. Its my opinion. I hope you can shed some light on this.

    That's fantastic. Extremely helpful. Now I can glide up into the fifth octave using that gentle pressure and stay connected, without either pushing or slipping into falsetto. If you could do a video on the orderly next steps and exercises required to turn that slide into actual singing in that range it would be even more fantastic. Thanks so much.

I cannot believe the difference in the ease at the way I can sing higher..something Ive been trying to do for years..I first saw you in another video about a year ago saying the same thing but I found it hard to do and abandoned it after a day or two....well I wasn’t going to quit this time and stuck with it...I feel like I’m finally making a breakthrough and although I have increased my range slightly in the last 18 months this is the single most biggest breakthrough and I couldn’t wait to tell you and obviously thank you.

  • @kirby900
    @kirby900 4 роки тому +3

    Carl, I'm so grateful that you posted this video. The idea of focusing all the way down to the most elementary event of bringing the vocal cords together to make a tiny little sound with very little air pressure was a game changer for me. I spent some time one evening just lightly bringing the cords together and using just enough air to make a tiny little sound. Then I focused on generating a stable pitch with that tiny little sound. Then I starting sliding the pitch up and down. At low volume and very light pressure, almost no effort is needed to hit ridiculously high pitches. The simple exercise of isolating the cords and the small muscles that control opened my eyes to all the extra muscles that I've been unknowingly recruiting whenever I sing--especially when I approach my first break/bridge/passaggio. Now I'm beginning to understand what vocal teachers mean about needing to drop mass or weight from the voice when transitioning to the upper register. Thanks for helping me to achieve a long-awaited aha moment!

    @MOFsquadron 5 років тому +15

    This what the vocal community refers to as "sirens" you start low, and scoop up to high and back down again, mimicking the sound of a siren. It's how we help young boys and sometimes girls struggling with their voice change find their head voice. The head voice is what we switch to as we get higher up so we're not carrying our diaphragm or "chest voice" too high which causes the vocal chords to vibrate too hard and larynx to become horse and permanently damage the voice. It's using the space inside of your mouth to amplify and project your notes :).

      I wanted to give you an answer, but I noticed you commented 3 years ago.
      But still I will do it for other people searching for an answer.
      Do 2 things:
      1. Get hydrated. Drink 8 to 10 glasses of water every day.
      Remember that your vocal cords need water from inside; I mean you must have water in your veins not just wetting your throat by drinking a few drops of water.
      2. Not push for too high notes. Start from not very high notes like E4 to G4 (Wherever you are easy with) and then after getting a grasp of how it feels, then make it higher.

    This was a lot of help! To hit those higher notes I would have to either engage in vocal fry (which lets me go super high but then I can't do anything Tenor-range or lower without having to disengage my fry) or I would have to sound super breathy, which makes it strained and if I try to go below G3 my voice cracks and I lose the breathiness, but it just sounds bad because I go from head voice to chest voice automatically. By the end of the video I was getting a feel for going high to low the right way, and I was even sounding decent without the breathiness, and circumventing the voice crack entirely when I use my vocal cords the correct way. Thanks again!

      @traininggrounds9450 5 років тому +2

      @@Mellowlo Have you guys ever put a blade of wide grass in between your thumbs and then blown air in between the gap that is created from the two knuckles? I think cord closure is all about having the muscles keep a gap tight and firm enough so that the air doesn't bully it's way through and cause it to pop or crack. I think about the reeds on most wind instruments that are just two pieces of flat material that thins the air down passing through it and you get a high pitch sound. That's what I imagine when he talks about keeping the cord closed. Having a thin enough stream of air allows your muscles to learn the technique before you can sing it normally.

      @aanesijr 5 років тому +3

      Basically your vocal chords are so stiff that they no longer vibrate. You can try to break through that like the video says by relaxing, not panicking, and trying the vocal fry. But there will be an upper limit no matter what you do.

  • @corystajduhar
    @corystajduhar 6 років тому +1

    I agree with you. It's all about not forcing and not singing with too much weight. I always warm up focused on release. I like to do sirens, baby cries and scales starting from the top and descend. Pentatonic scales also help me to release if I'm ascending. However, I try not to focus too much on singing perfect notes or specific notes when warming up. That gets me to obsess too much about pitch and I try control and manipulate too much. If I am flat and not released enough, I stop for a second, relax and resing the note or sound. One has to reset the voice and coordination because the coordination from the preceding notes transfer to the subsequent notes, hence we shouldn't have too much weight or tension. After a while, it gets easier to sing with one coordination and then mix it up on different notes to vary the dynamics and stylization. It really is about allowing the voice to do its thing without forcing it or straining.

I can't tell if my voice lacks elasticity but I find it hard to recover back to my lower register, even after practicing I can only sing back down to a insecure E2.. hmm... Subbing regardless.

      As you breathe in imagine you are about to sneeze. you will feel the palate raise and larynx lower. (you can try a yawn reflex instead if it doesn't work, but don't do the yawn too strong--just the beginning of a yawn.) At the same time, keep the tongue relaxed and forward. If you feel the tongue going backward, it's the root of the tongue that's pushing the larynx down and that is not good.
