This is a totally different warm up to what I've used before. This actually gets your voice and body to connect as one, and encourages clean notes. Thank you for sharing.
The tongue out "A" is so helpful I'm a 1st tenor singing in a chorale who had COVID last year and bad pneumonia. It took 6mos. to get my lungs in shape again and I am STILL working on my voice. So discouraging. If I don't warm up just right my high (G, A, B,) just disappears below a forte. I've never had this problem before. The warm up in this vid. is SO helpful. Thanks.
I'm a trans man, about 5 or 6 months on testosterone and my voice is about tenor now. The changes have been absolutely wild to keep up with, and while I only had a few vocal lessons in the past anyway, I'm having to completely shift the way I place my voice because everything has moved so noticably. I've been struggling to find a part of my new voice that even sounds like a singing voice, but the adele exercise you showed instantly brought out the powerful part of my voice that I've never heard before--I'm honestly amazed I could sound like this so early on HRT, and it gives me so much hope for finally learning to sing in a voice that feels like it's mine
Thanks for the comprehensive vocal warm up. The last warm up sounds similar to Native American chanting, which is done from the diaphragm. Core strengthening exercises and cardiovascular exercise have greatly improved my vocal strength and ability to hold notes longer.
The last exercise was super funny, but also super helpful 😂 I can naturally belt pretty well, but this just showed me that I have no idea what I’m doing 😂 thank you very much!
Hi Ron. First time here. Glad I stumbled upon your video. Bass/Bariton; often asked to sing G4s. I have a question about tongue placement in the "er" excersize -- 6:15; is your "R" formed with tip of tongue down on lower teeth and mid-tongue up towards hard palate, OR with the tip up toward uper teeth? I tried both. Both feel good. First version is interesting in that it is very very close to the "E" placement. Thanks for this warm up. I will be looking at more of your lessons.
Very good, complete and effective set of exercises ! Thanks a lot for sharing ! One question: I don't necessarily want to belt; just trying to improve my sound and go up to F with a nice tone on all possible sets of consonent/vowels or reverse. I sing jazz songs...
I think it’s good for a voice to have access to all the sounds it can make. Having access to belt will help your support and other areas of your sound.
Just discovered your channel and knew I was born to experience this video when, at approximately 1:31, it sounded as though you said “meow!” Hehe it totally made my day and snapped me out of tragic despair as I lamented 1) my current inability to hit a note I sing just fine every day, 2) especially when I’m to record the song this very morn… 3) which I’m not sure how to accomplish as the $600 mic that just hit my door-step… arrived damaged. Sigh. Lol. (C’est la vie but lots of things happened very quickly and I have to record vox for 14 songs and produce them alll …for public release in under two weeks. (Aka if I pull this off, it was 1000 million per cent GOD, lol. Truly. (I’m not a pro-just a psalmist who sings eight hours a day-every day-and writes as worship To The Most-High!). I thank Him for sending me this video, and I thank you for creating it! Can’t wait to jump back into it and finish the fun warm-up, which I shall do right MEOW! Heheh :)) May He Bless you and yours, brother. ♥️✝️🙏
You may be taking chest voice up too high. If you know what your mix voice is try to incorporate that down from higher in your range. You can also try watching my video on Finding Twang on this channel. Also my version of the ng siren would also help. Basically how little air and sound can you use to get to your high voice. This will help you find your mix. I hope that helps!
@@singingwithron thank you very much for reaching back to me sir...I'm taking my chest voice too high actually. Straining is quite frequent and so is inconsistency. People say singing shouldn't hurt but it kinda does sometimes. I know I'm doing stuff wrong and my singing teacher just doesn't know what to do it seems. He just told me I'm a baritone-bass, killing my hopes of singing higher, and so he doesn't even want me to use my falsetto and head voice, which can reach up to D6. I used your technique and my G4 had never felt more free. My hopes of singing higher were revived. I think I'm more than a baritone-bass cause I really struggle to get the heaviness of the tone since singing lighter and softer is just normal for me. I'm going to try what you said Ron and give you feedback. And please, any advice on sore throats and hoarseness? Thank you very much. I really love your content.
I think you should have access to being a baritone and a tenor. Sometimes teachers can only you teach you what they know. His knowledge of singing outside of his chest might be limited. The finding a teacher that is a tenor to help you with your high notes. I promise you, you have them.
You are 100% baritone a true tenor don't use falsetto here 2:53 is full voice. You have no vocal uniformity in you're mix voice, If you use fasetto at that point you are not a tenor. I'm sorry for my English.
I made this video several years ago now. I have had people tell me I am a tenor and some say your a baritone. These days are feeling much more tenorial. Maybe its time a did a new version of this video!
@@singingwithron I'm waiting for your video then. thank you. If you keep the air and sound escaping with your abdomen contracted all the time, maybe you can be a tenor and finally you will find the mixed voice. The contracted abdomen activates the diaphragm and serves to control the dynamics. You must always have the sensation of holding back the voice with the abdomen, regardless of the pitch of the note sung, in this way the sound will always come out uniform and sustained without the need to shout. We must have the sensation of singing under abdominal pressure always but with 50% of the volume. Over time, the volume perceived by others will be loud.
I’m a baritone, but the «Adele» exercise made me hit the cleanest C5 ever. Thank you so much for this wonderful video!
Same!
Same!!!!

I really enjoyed this video. My voice weakened over quarantine, and I feel it coming back with this video!

I'm glad it works for you!
@@singingwithron Thanks for the reply.
Excellent échauffement vocal and belting 🙏
BRAVO!
The last exercise was super funny, but also super helpful 😂 I can naturally belt pretty well, but this just showed me that I have no idea what I’m doing 😂 thank you very much!
This is a really GREAT vocal warmup for musical choices and all genres. I gradually felt the strength coming smoother and stronger. Love this video!

@2:34 Lip trills
@4:24 angry bee
@7:04 Err
@9:28 Adele ahh
@11:18 huh vowel
Why would you need to break into falsetto doing a lip trill?? Kinda defeats the purpose right!?
So you don’t strain and damage your vocal chords.
Help please...my transitions sound funny...I can sing to A#4 with the exercises and B4 with the Adele but transition sounds funny
