How to Sing in MIX VOICE by Controlling Your Nose Hole

Поділитися
Вставка
  • Опубліковано 20 гру 2020
  • Hi everyone!
    Controlling your nasal port by raising and lowering the soft palate is a really good way to learn how to sing in a more thinned out coordination (the vocal folds are stretched more than they could be), or what some people call a "mix".
    I think nasality is just a piece of the puzzle, and a good training device for mix voice because it will prevent singers from belting or "pulling up" there lower voice (ei. chest dragging).
    Nasality is certainly not required, but a good tool to have at your disposal.

      Aw, that's nice I really hope more and more people subscribe to you bro.
      I've tried that thing where you raise your soft palate and lower it, can you still get head resonance even with the soft palate raised? (no nasal resonance) Because I don't want my voice to sound too nasal but not to muddy either, if you get what I mean.

      A few weaks ago something helped me to access flageolet tension in my mixed voice and that was by pinching my nose and I tried to sing without the sound coming from my nose but out of the mouth, it really helped me to sing higher but now it doesn't work as good anymore haha.
      Like the last time I tried to sing with the sound coming out of my nose, and I could sing effortlessly, now it doesn't work anymore haha.

    You’re an undescovered brilliance. I’ve been toiling for over a decade to sing. I’m a low baritone and anything above an F was strained nasally and ugly… I just hit an A4 with rasp and strong support and perfectly on pitch.
    Your advice helped me achieve this… I’m so thankful I found you. Keep on this track, you found your calling very early in life.

  • @DiangeloMatias

    This is so interesting! I speak brazilian portuguese. It's a language with lots of nasality and a lower and back placement. For us, the english language has a forward and upper placement and some kind of nasality. We need to raise our resonance in order to sing in english and we use that placement to sing Musical Theatre in our language (it helps a loooot!). But we can't use it very much or it would sound very fake in portuguese for our ears.
    These two examples you gave in the video we say here in voice technique: voice in the nose and voice behind the nose.

    Iny book a closed nasal pathway is considered nasal.. Like when you are sick.. Good airflow thru the nose and a more bright projecting sound is not nasal sounding. But it's just a different way of looking at it. So the air has to travel thru the nose that is important it seems.. To help with mix

Anyway thanks for this small course and exercices, I ll try them !

    this would explain what I have found in the singing of Ozzy and Bon Scott vs Tony Martin or Paul Rodgers
    The Ahhh vowel goes up F4 to Bb4 then the "It" vowel for B4, the " Uhh" up to Eb5
    then "Oo"
    but if you add the " IT' vowel early on Ab4 A and Bb4 you get that air cut to the nose, causing a resonant buzz in the mouth and forehead, I have heard singers say singing through your nose, but I think it means resonating in the nose, because you actually cut the air.

But I have to say that the sounds with a closed port to the nose sounded better to me. Maybe I misunderstood you or you want to get to somewhere else then after we know how to properly leave the port open?
    I'd be thankful for your answer :)
