6:27 for practice. 9:54 😊
Thank you, Sterling! Good to see you back!
Sir, your videos and lessons are hitting so many bullseyes. I am so glad i found your channel. You have gained yourself a subscriber and patreon supporter.
Thank you 😊
Great lesson man. Really helpful
F yeah! Thank you for the lesson Sterling.
Oh shit... holy effing shit. I was just learning about how to increase the strength of my thyroarytenoid muscles to help support my chest voice. Before watching this video, I tapped out at E6. By tap out, I mean I brush against it.
My voice sounds like a dying cat when I try to belt. I watched the video with a bunch of "singers" rihanna, fergie, and JLo using a high larynx and low breath support and it made my ears bleed. So, I went down the rabbit hole of trying to figure out how to hold the larynx in the proper position and get enough support.
Your video came up and this exercise just put it all together for me. On my first attempt my tuner tracked me at an g6. I solid perfect note. No oscilating between flat and sharp. 2 weeks ago my range was D# / Eb3. Hell, this morning I tapped out at C5. I have been doing training exercises today. Interesting enough, they cover this technique, it is just in a long ass 1 hour process.
My brain exploded when I hit an effing whistle note with my larynx low!!!! This is the cheat code!!!! I am usually all over the place with my notes. They oscillate between being sharp and flat. After 1 stretch, my voice was hitting the correct frequencies spot on. I'm laying down in bed at 3am and my notes are on point. I still have a long way to go in terms of learning everything, but this exercise is a effing game changer.
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
Thanks a lot for this video bro 🙏 had years literally trying to find the flageolet register and I finally found it today 🎉🎉🎉😄
I don’t watch UA-cam much. But your humour has me in stitches 😂 the voice you put on when imitating vocal coaches giving their advice. The English guy who you got the vocal fry technique from.
The the sex doll - I was not expecting.
And I watch for awesome singing advice. 👍🏼
This is the best one yet
This is incredible: it gave me an instant easy way to easily re-produce any pitch and register in my whole range. And unlocked that whistle stuff I didn't know I had (I have a very low voice). And is an oddly comprehensive way to exercise all of it. Holy cow.
Is this suitable for a warm-up as well? From a cold croaky morning voice to belt city? I am now able, with this simple exercise, but am not sure if it's healthy.
You are explaining incredibly important and complex concepts, head on and without filler and that's truly commendable. Please continue, this is absolutely invaluable stuff and, as far I can tell, there aren't many, if any, places online where you can get someone like you, singing on such a high level and actually talking us through the thinking behind it. I think you're really intentional and precise with your words and I have to say - it's really appreciated.
I'd love to know, did your voice always have such a ping to it in your mid to lower notes (in that part of your register I can almost feel that 'buzz' in my own voice box when you sing) or did you find that sound over the years? It's difficult to explain in text, but that same type of buzzy, twangy, nasally, bright quality (I know these are not the actual terms, I just don't have more descriptive ones in my vocabulary) in your voice is something that I find I also have in mine. These qualities helped me find my mix easily and I can ascend relatively easily through my higher register but that same buzzy quality (buzzy as opposed to Sinatra's silkier, more rounded and smoother lower register) remains as I move into my mid to lower notes. I don't know if I should embrace that because there is nothing you can do to change it or should I try to find a 'rounder' more traditional sound in that register?
Before I heard you sing, I never found anyone with similar quality to their voice to my own so I couldn't really ask someone with actual experience for advice. Anything you can tell me, I'd love to hear. Thanks for the great content, man.
Actually found the flageolet via vocal fry! Quite surprised.
Only found something approaching mixed voice a few times in the past with a sound that was quite terrible, so won't be getting those together any time soon, but it's very interesting!
Ive been working with this technique for years. Only recently have i somehow been able to add the chest feeling into this small sound which gives a lot of power to high notes . My only issue is its hard to switch in and out of normal singing to this . Im getting better but yes a blown out voice makes this technique harder and tighter
“I’m still keepin’ my sex doll face on.” 😂 So, so good! Thank you for this tutorial. Can’t wait to level up to the next tier on Patreon!
Nice one , bruv! The English dude was ace.😎
I feel like im tensing the muscle below my chin a lot when doing higher flageolet, so i can only reach G5 or so. Any tips on going higher?
where do you feel the cry? i can connect, but i get confused on how to add the cry? how does it feel?
Hi I think this is a very informative video thank you ! I have a question about blowing out your voice.you mentioned that we would have a problem if we blew out our voice, Isit possible for you to explain why is this so and is this a long term thing
It happens to many of us, not just singers. If you talk a little loud, say at a party for example, you can start to “blow your voice out”. It’s common. Usually calms down overnight. When your repeatedly do this for extended periods over a course of time one risks developing bigger vocal issues.
Hi! While trying to go as high as I can with vocal fry while not employing any unwanted muscles and without breathiness, I can barely hit an A#4. Changing the larynx position doesn't help. Do I just keep doing it over and over or is there something else that might be wrong?
Is that your natural max?
Hope your dog heals up asap
Is it recommend to learn flageolet,before learning whistle voice.
Both are sorta “parlor trick” type things. Not very usable in music and almost sorta silly. Does that make sense? I use flageolet as a warmup but will I express myself through song or use it live? No. Flageolet will help you learn more about how the voice functions and should function as you go higher so I’d focus on that but both can be really strange and possibly difficult to find at first. They’re weird noises haha. Hope that helps .
Im trying to learn this to fill my F#5-C6 gap and i have hit and hold a C#6 flageolet before so i kinda failed successfully
My voice doesn’t really go any higher than G5 without bridging to flageolet honestly. But that’s ridiculously high so… don’t be too hard on yourself 😊
The fact that vocal teacher sounds bad to you doesn't matter, he/she can still be great at giving instructions and understanding how to pass those information so that your body gets it.
Hahaha 😮
That's all good, but what would be interesting would be to see how this technique can be used to sing words, not just "a" sounds.
It’s not used for words. It’s a vocal exercise and warmup.
@@SterlingRJackson Sorry for the super late reply, but you're actually wrong. Flageolet is a register or mechanism (M3). Dimash uses flageolet all the time, the same as coloratura sopranos. It's the register that comes right after head voice/fasetto and it's the last connected register. Saying that flageolet is a warmup exercise is like saying that chest voice is a warmup exercise, it just doesn't make sense. With all due respect.
You don't use chest voice when you warm up? What I'm teaching here is a vocal warmup and exercise for stretching the vocal cords. I can't use this register on stage, especially singing rock music. I get a lot of comments like this from folks that just want to tell me I'm wrong or someone else said this or that. That's fine but your time is better spent then studying with another person if my information isn't resinating with ya. @@MusicMan121
@@SterlingRJackson I use chest voice to warm up but I would be crazy if I reduced it to a warmup exercise. It's a mechanism, like flageolet. In fact, flageolet can even be brought all the way down to chest voice territory. Flageolet is the connected mechanism right above head voice (that's why some people call it just head voice or high head voice, but i's not the same, there's even a break between them).
This guy, a very famous great coach from NY, doesn't agree with you either. Is he also one of those "folks" who try to get under your skin? This is the most popular flageolet video on the internet: ua-cam.com/video/EI8tIk5UlGc/v-deo.html
These two guys do a great job of explaining flageolet as well (tell me the second guy is not into rock...):

We're not all out to get you, it's nice and humble to admit when we're wrong and misinforming, that's it.
My flageolet sounds like like a lady opera singer that is loud enough to break glass, it feels different from falsetto anyways.
Sounds like you’re mentioning head voice, not flageolet. Flageolet is one of the quietest sounds you can make vocally. The word literally translates to “small flute”. 😊

Kens cool and very knowledgeable/great teacher. But holy hell is he pretentious.
@@zephirol4638yup
@@zephirol4638and passive aggressive AF. It’s clear the guy is overflowing with wisdom, but it’s off putting when those same gems are delivered alongside a disingenuous grin and a jab at someone or something else - constantly
Listen to Ken Tamplin’s students… they sing just like him. It makes me cringe.
