Nasality vs Nasal Airflow (SINGING LESSON) 

let's just appreciate for a moment how much your channel grew in this past months.

Agreed! A lot of people don't realize that a nasal tone is most often the result of a really high larynx position not actually singing through your nose!

Drink every time he says nasal

That thumbnail is *iconic*

Growing up as I was singing, I was told that nasality was such a bad thing. I would try so hard not to do it. Later on I found that, of course, that isn’t true. I’m so glad that you posted this video since there might be others out there who feel the same way. Love love love your channel!

I always thought I sing wrong when I sing nasally. Wow. Thanks man..

Did anyone else think that when he was talking with no nasal airflow, he kinda sounded like Donald Trump? Probably just me lmao

Boi it's actually amazing how much info you can give in just a short video

0:25 Queen Cat jumping into the spotlight hahaha

I’m learning more here than in other classes! Thank you!

This is actually very helpful!! Thank you so much for explaining nasal airflow because I've been confused on it for several years and I've been stuck with a misconception that if you have air flowing out of your nose you sound nasally! Thank you for explaining how that's not always the case and that nasal airflow can actually help!

Ohhh shit finally our boy is doing these type of singing videos again!!!! 🔥🔥🔥😍 Now we just need a course or something more affordable than the lessons 😝🙏

Tristan videos are so useful, I learn more here than at school.

Im always surprised at how easy it is to understand the concepts and try them out straight away when watching ur vids. Ty so much for this!!

It took me way too long to learn the difference by myself 😂 I was often told in secondary school choir by my instructor that I was ' too nasally ' or ' too airy ' and I was singing with my throat, not my head voice; it took me so much experimenting back then (even till now) to understand how to place my voice properly

Love how you keep these videos short and to the point while still giving plenty of examples!! Makes them very engaging and easy to follow.

this. is. so. important. #nasalairflow

I'm a voice teacher myself. Admittedly, I don't get much from your reaction videos and usually skip them (sorry!), but I've never thought about this in the way you described. I got a great deal from this vid. Thank you!

Makes sense as to why James Charles sounds flat and has that mouth-airflow only sound. Even when he speaks, he always sounds like he has a plugged nose to me. I don't think he naturally lets air out of his nose. I bet he could be a great singer when he learns this technique! Also I hope you make a vid with him!!

This is so good to know! I knew a woman when I was a child that had the most nasal voice ever, she sounded whiny and pretty terrible, so I taught myself to sing with my nose plugged so I wouldn't sound like her. 😂 I'm a soprano and sometimes come across as breathy, which isn't my intention. Thank you for explaining that if I allow air through my nose that I won't sound like I'm borderline crying. I know some gets through now but I'm going to allow more and see what kind of a difference that makes. I'm actually singing the National Anthem tonight for a minor league baseball team so you gave the perfect example!

You finally gave me the answer, which is nasal airflow. Everyone says not to sing through your nose, but you clearly showed the difference between nasality and nasal airflow. Thank you my friend 😊

Such an informative video! I grew up with classical training and was always told to sing through our throat only! I’m excited to learn more and expand my vocal ability! Also, to grow from the way I was taught growing up!

Great video on something that isnt addressed enough, keep up the great work man!

Tristan thank you so much for this video it helped a lot I never understood when people said he or she sounds nasal when singing but this video helped with my understanding of it and my singing thx again

Oooooooo girl... that blonde bleach hair was a choice

Omg this helped me so much. I've been watching you for a while now and my vocals have improved a LOT! 😂thank you so much!

OMG that clip of your old videos

Nasal airflow gives that ring quality 💍 I've missed this videos 🙌🙌🙌

I really enjoy these types of videos, please keep them coming and teach all the people like me who get confused by this stuff :D Reaction/analysis request: Mamamoo on Immortal Songs! My favourites are delilah, backwoods and love story of a girl. Thanks!

Oooooooohhhhhhhhhhhh! Now it makes sense

great explanation

This is helpful. I grew up singing in choir and was self-taught. I naturally tended to sing in a very classical style, but in my upper register I could feel that my nasal passages were closed and it's always bothered me. My definition of "sounding nasal" was the sound when you pinch your nose and dont allow air through your nasal passageways, so it's bothered me how I can't seem to open it up in my upper register. Inhaling through my nose helps, but I didn't know of any other tricks. Thanks!

Omg your hair😂👏🏻

Omg... Nick and I were literally just wondering what your thoughts on this were (re: Nasality comments on James Charles's video). The Great Tristan Provideth. I shall not want.

thaaaank u i love yooou I feel like, its so cool because as so many times u have told us theres people out there that spend all that money in so many teachers and stuff, and I just feel like theres this new generation of vocal coachs that are leaving behind unnecessary myths about singing, and its actually working, I watch u and another Mexican vocal teacher here on youtube and every video is so informative u know, theres material everywhere so Im glad we have u Tristan, thank u, Im from Venezuela btw.

Can you PLEASE react to Mamamoo immortal song performances

Hi can you react to Mamamoo live performance on Inmortal songs 2? My fav are Way to Sampo and Love story of a girl!

Can you please react to MAMAMOO - Delilah or Passion Flower. Or my personal favourite Backwoods.

I just found your channel yesterday and I am completely obsessed!!

Thank you for clarifying. I’ve been having problems with hitting high notes and my coach always says “nasal airflow” but I wasn’t quite sure what that meant. I appreciate this :))

Hey Tristan! I just want to say thank you for your educational videos and most importantly, your authentic personality. Over this year I've been working on coming out of my shell in the online sense and I've really appreciated your candid personality on camera. I recently started this channel to share my experiences singing over the last several years and give amateur singers some feedback on their vocals. Your videos helped give me the push I needed to share the lessons I've learned along the way. My original idea for the channel was to make song parodies but I decided to change it up and focus on vocal improvement among other things as I feel that's what would best represent my experience. My first video (along this new direction) will be up soon and I'd just like to invite other members of the tristfam to subscribe and be a part of this journey. Thank you all!

I've never been this early for any video and I only just found this channel. I'm just gonna pause the video and subscribe, like, turn on notifications, and save this channel to a folder on my computer because *god bless* I have never been more pleased with a channel.

It's funny how I was questioning why I was singing so nasally and than you uploaded a video on this. Thanks for the help sensei!!!!

Can you please react to Mamamoo’s immortal song performances “Delilah” “Backwoods” and “Dancing to the rhythm”

I live for this channel, tbh. Thanks for the tips,man!

not to be dramatic but I have PTSD from drama-infested musical theatre in high school and it literally turned me off from one of my favorite hobbies ever. Everyone in the department was a snake who judged others for their singing while never being open to criticism while also believing they were the hottest shit in the world if they got a solo in our small town theatre. They bullied me endlessly and I have literally been TRIGGERED by watching other people perform or sing because it just reminded me of these horrible people. I was actually scared to watch your videos when they started being recommended to me, but after I started watching them I realized how down to earth and sweet you are. This video really helped me and makes me believe that I can sing without having to be perfect or meet expectations. Thank you so much for that ❤️❤️

I asked this question a hundred times finally !! thank you !! ❤️❤️❤️ 😂😂😂 i didnt understand 😂👌🏻

Please react to Mamamoo's Immortal Songs

Your videos have helped me out so much this summer! I’m classically and operatically trained despite my want to sing musical theatre/modern music. I’ve never had as much as I do now watching your videos. I love that you explain and demonstrate exactly what you’re talking about and provide real evidence that proves your teaching! Thank you, Tristan!

i love listening to people who specialise in a field who actually know what they’re talking about

I really like this way of teaching things where you actually show practical exercise instead of just using fancy words. Thank you! (Also I think it's super important for us who's native language is not english!)

This video was crazy helpful! Apparently I don't use any nasal airflow when I sing because it was super hard for me to get it to kick in... going to have to practice that. More videos like this please!!!

Can you listen to Mamamoo Passion Flower song from Immortal Songs 2? They are a Korean girl group with amazing vocals. Even when they introduce themselves they sing together in harmony.

Now i want a full cover of Star Spangled Banner *IMMEDIATELY*

Tristan! I love how educational AND funny your videos are! You should do a video singing with the Smule karaoke app!

Oh my god I died at your "reading the research" throwback. Crazy how far you've come. Love all your videos

I hope these singing lesson videos will become a staple in your account because I think this is exactly what I need to really finally get better. The way you explain things makes sense and is easy to understand. Thanks!

I love this! There is so much I want to understand about my voice and identify the things that change when I do something different every time. Like ''Why this sounds different now? Why I can't hit it? Oh! If I do this I can! What am I doing that is working or not working?'' Your channel has been helping me a lot lately, I make notes and I practice afterwards. Things that I have always wondered but couldn't really ask google in the right way I finally find them here! I am so excited! Thank you, thank you, thank you! I love how excited you are while you react and explain videos, you motivate other people. So thank you again!

It's interesting seeing and hearing exactly what the nasal airflow I've heard you talk about before is. It's also really interesting to realize that I've just always done that naturally. I've been watching so many of your videos lately, though, and I feel like even in the short time it's already improving my singing, and I think my music director for the musical I'm in has taken notice, so thanks man! You're helping me sound better before opening night!

I really enjoyed this video and found it very informative. You broke something down so simply Which I always thought was so complex, thank you! Btw could you please react to Mamamoos immortal songs performances like Delilah and/or Way to Sampo??

You make the most sense and have helped me out in a few videos far more than the other "voice experts" that i have been watching on RU-vid for years. God Bless I've subscribed.

Thank you i didn't really know about this! I think it will help me a lot!

I love how you explain things. I've been trying to stop nasal airflow cuz i thought it was bad in my lower range, but I'm glad it's normal because it's what my body naturally wants to do. more and more I'm seeing that my body knows wtf to do!!! and I need to stop trying so hard lol.

Please react to Mamamoo's Immortal Songs: Delilah, Backwoods and Passion Flower 🙏

Omg i never knew that. Now that i think about it my mamamoo girls switch with it too. Can u please react to mamamoo's immortal songs performances especially "DELILAH" n "PASSION FLOWER"

react to mamamoo's immortal songs!!

Classical singers develop what they call 'squillo' which is a bright pingy sound (also called Singers Formant) so that their voices carry. It's basically twang/nasal airflow/whatever you want to call it but in italian... because they're classical singers... gotta be fancy.

Can you react to mamamoo? They have some amazing vocals ❤❤❤

can you please react to Mamamoo's delilah and passion flower ?? or any of their immortal songs 2 performances ? 💓

Teach me to sing king
