that's the most complete video about how to achieve overtone singing i've found so far, thank you so much!!
I'm glad you found it! Please share with friends and fellow singers.
i think this is the best possible use of my time when i'm drinking alone
that sounds sad
I've watched hours, and hours, and hours, of UA-cam videos on singing. This video was so concise, so easy, and so effective I think it's one of the videos that truly helped me conceptualize a "missing piece" I've had with learning to sing. Thank you!
Thanks! Keep going!
This video helped me figure out how to sing overtones literally in a couple minutes. The “whisper rollercoaster” prompt for getting a feeling for tongue placement was genius! Thanks Stuart!
Omg ive watched a dozen videos and have been trying soooo hard and watching this video - I JUST GOT IT! ITS SO WEIRD! What a great breakdown! Thank you!!!!
Great! Glad it helped. Keep going!
Thank you Grandpa !!! I ask for this and you replied Thank you So much :D
Since I haven't seen anyone else mention it; was the melody you demonstrated the english horn solo from Dvorak's "New World Symphony"? It hit me out of nowhere as an oboe player!
Also, thanks for this wonderful video, I have to learn overtone singing for a class of mine and this is a great start!
That's right; you're the first to comment on it.
I am coming back to this video again and I am really impressed by one of the best overtone singing tutorials in the world wide web. Thanks Stuart. Greetings, yours Jens
And with the Ancient Greek modal scales you can play (with omittances) any key and relatives. It’s just down to frequency emphasis. Love it!
Love and light ❤. Thanks for sharing
Hope it helps. Keep going!
Echoing everyone else's comments, Stuart, thank you for a great lesson! x
Thanks! Keep singing!
baked as hell, felt inspired to learn overtones. thank you sir.
cool! keep going!
Wow, this is the most awesome, comprehensive and informative video that I've found on this topic. Listening to You sing these dual tones, is so amazing!! They didn't teach this technique in classical voice training, or in opera workshop or in any of the music classes and training that I've had over the years. You make it look so easy. I'm trying really hard not to be jealous (lol). Thank you for sharing the wind sound blowing exercise, because that helped me understand my tongue placement and how to move the pitch of the harmonic tone - and thanks for explaining that it's best to sustain the base note for as long as possible to have more time to harmonize.
I could get the polyphonic whistle tones after a couple of attempts! I'm going to practice to make sure that my harmonic frequency sounds like a whistle sound - rather than like a Didgeridoo. Thank you for sharing this fantastic video!
Super, super clear!!! Thanks for sharing with us. Very useful for both beginners and advanced!
Thank you very much for sharing your skills. I can use your vocal training to help me with my movement trouble. I have a rare neurological condition and I am learning how to control my vocal cords and breathing. I use to practice meditation with breathing and singing helps my breathing skills. I have a natural ability to sing well too because of my mom. She was a musical genius. Sadly drug addiction caused her to lose everything and she wasn't able to achieve her dream to be a singer. Instead she passed on her ability to my brother and I. We use to sing together for fun and we even had a band and I was a DJ for years for small events. Mom passed away from cancer in 2016. I am autistic and I am trying to figure out how to get my artwork noticed. I have a feeling art is over done and I might be stuck. 🤷🏻♂️ I am okay with it. I've never been able to work because of my handicappies. I thought practicing my singing again can take my mind off my anxiety so here I am. ❤️ You are amazing.
Thanks for sharing. Keep going!
Incredible
Thanks!
What a fantastic explanation !!
Thanks Susana!!!
Wow. I've learned the little I know about overtone singing by myself. I used to change the pitch of each harmonic by moving the lips, but I didn't know that doing it with the tongue is the right way, thanks a lot for the lesson and excercises, greetings from Honduras.
😀
Superb instructions.
Thanks! Keep going!
Thank you. You're a great teacher.
Great! Keep going!
Thank you very much!!
Great video
Glad I found this video by chance. Just wow.
Great info & video! Nicely put together!
Thanks for watching
Amazing tutorial!! Thank you so much!!!!
Thanks! I have lots of videos on overtone singing you can check out. Keep going!
Super Video
Super helpful video, thank you!!
Great! Keep going!
The best tutorial I've found! Thanks a lot!
Thanks!
Thanks a lot for this amazing video! Greetings from France 🙂
Great! Keep going!
thank you!
Thanks for watching. Hope it helps.
what the fuck!? that amazing
I need sleep. Dont know how I ended up here
Thanks for the helpful tips! I definitely have the overtones working but am having trouble getting them louder relative to the fundamental note. Is that something that just gets better with practice or is there something I might try differently?
This is just so cool, thanks again.
You have it now. Just feel the vibrations in the head, not the throat, and focus your mind on the sound, not the effort. Keep going and let me know if you need more help.
@@TheStuartHindsI’m having the same problem with not being able to get the overtones louder as loud as you
just focus on feeling the vibrations in the soft palate area, not the throat, make sure your breath support is strong, and remember that I have been doing it for overo 20 years.
@@joek292
@@TheStuartHinds thanks, I seem to have trouble with feeling anything in the soft palate but did get a bit more volume thinking of aiming the vibration in the harder palate above the back of my top teeth where you would put your tongue for a ‘T’ sound
Well, certainly aim high (head, not throat). @@joek292
Tenho dois anos que conheci essa técnica e me apaixonei. Tento estudar, mas sinto muita dificuldade devido a diferença de tradução.
This is so helpful!!!
Thanks for checking it out!
and for commenting - I appreciate the feedback
WOW!!!!
This guy is an alien.
Thanks, that was helpful. A different question: are you reading the text? If so how did you organise that. I'd like to know because it seems very helpful when doing a video. Thanks.
Yes, I set up my laptop with the text directly behind the phone so I can see it, but you can still see my eyes move at times.
@@TheStuartHinds Ah, so that's smart! So you film with the phone and read on the laptop! Thanks!
@@TheStuartHinds and it's not obvious that you read. I had to look closely.
@@claraandriessen8423 Thanks! I hope you keep going with overtone singing.
Como criar mais projeções? Como colocar o som mais audível dos Harmônicos???
Thanks for asking. The basic technique is given in this video. Focus on keeping the energy of your singing in the soft palate area of the vocal tract. If you are having difficulty, make a short video and I'll help you.
@@TheStuartHinds grato!!
Thanks for this amazing tutorial! In your method, does the tip of the tongue actually touch the roof of the mouth? Or is it just sort of facing upwards but not in contact with the palate?
Thanks! For this /ng/ exercise, let the back of the tongue touch the roof of the mouth to demonstrate the location of the soft palate where you should focus the vibratory energy of your singing. Of course, the tongue drops back when producing overtones. Keep going!
@@TheStuartHinds Thanks a lot!
Bro im that saga of dragon ball z
I can hum and whistle at the same time, is it similar to overtone singing?
Actually, whistling uses similar vocal tract positions to overtone singing. The difference is that in whistling there is no vocal fold vibration. Ha! That is the topic of one of my upcoming Overtone Minute videos
strong Lynch vibes with this one
How to get more volume on the overtone? I can make them, but they sound weak..
Don't worry and don't force it. Make sure your breath support is strong and focus your mind on vibration in the soft palate area. Check out my Overtone Minute videos, too. Thanks!!!
@@TheStuartHinds thank you 😊 ill watch
I really love the way you teach. Do yoy accept students?
I am serious. I have fallen in love with this art very recently and would be great to find someone who can help with practicing it.
The best way to improve is to practice MUSIC and improvise a lot. My book MAKING MUSIC WITH OVERTONE SINGING has songs, lessons, and exercises for overtone singing that will give you plenty to work on (definitely get the recordings too). After that, I will help you if needed. www.stuarthinds.com/store/
Also, check out my #shorts from the last few months. Let me know how it goes.
@@TheStuartHinds can you put some review of your books?
My problem is I am not sure one can learn this from a book. Even from these videos I have not been able to reproduce what you do exactly. Can't see how the tongue should move.
Also I have no background in music so I have no idea how to work on "fundamental" "pitch" "harmony" because I don't know what it means.
Please help still interested as before.
@@mrh4742 yes, having musical experience certainly helps, but is not necessary. Just think of the vowel and the tongue will be in position for the highest overtones. When doing the exercises in the video, you should hear a difference between the "ng" and the vowel. Also make sure the sound is bright, not throaty, feeling the vibration in the soft palate area.
@@mrh4742 Don't eworry about the lingo for now. Just mimic what I'm doing in the video. If it just isn't working for you, post a short video of you doing the 3 exercises and I'll watch it to see what might be going wrong. Thanks for your comments!
One technique with a thousand names. Me I can't sing at all, not one solitary note.
Is the tongue supposed to be in a bowl shape?
Thanks for your question! For this exercise, lightly place the tip of the tongue behind the lower teeth and raise the back of the tongue to touch the palate for the "ing." Rounding the lips helps focus the overtone. Keep going!
@@TheStuartHinds Thank you for the quick reply! Is your tongue moving at the same time as your lips? I am confused about the movement between the lips and the ING and E tongue movement.
Hmmm. You are listening for overtones to emerge on the vowel and go away on the ing (E = overtone; ing = no overtone). Go back and forth. Once you hear the difference, you can make other adjustments to focus the overtone. @@baileycorneal7125
who else can whistle perfectly with their tongue ?
you can, with a little practice.
This dude looks so much like jeffrey epstein
