If I knew that 2 years ago I would be a way better singer now. My singing teacher was an opera singer and made me sing high notes with a lifted soft palate
My voice sounds best in opera and big singing like musicals or Tom Jones songs and I lift the soft palate as much as I can. I never sound like Rocky Balboa doing it. I admit that it's harder to sing pop or other styles lifting the palate like I do but I vocalise up to E-flat on good days and D-flat on bad days full opera voice. My voice needs the openess to function well. But if I would teach a singer who wants to sing in a modern style I would strive for a neutral balance of the opening instead of the extreme.
Great video. I am trying to improve my spoken voice. By doing exercises to raise the soft palate, can I reduce my nasality over time? Is it normal to feel fatigued at the beginning?
How abt when we want to resonate our voice for the low notes (bass notes), should we rise itu up, neutral or make it down? Anyone could give some tips how to resonate low notes?
Thank you for this, i have been told MANY times that i need to raise my soft palate, even though when i do i drop my larynx and is overall tight feeling and uncomfotable.
hello,please put a video about muscle tension dysphonia. cause I was diagnosed with MTD two months ago and people are talking about years of struggling and It scares me when I think that should spend 4 years to recover from this disease and I wanna get back to singing and making music tnx.
Can you please react to Mamamoo 🥺. Some songs I would recommend are: Maybe wind flower, I miss you, Aya, Travel, Hip, and Piano man (really old). Hope you like them ❤️
I watched this hours ago. What happened to my comment I made the first time you posted this‽ You should check out Darci Lynne, especially her finals performance on America's Got Talent Champions (she took second place this time), it will change your mind about how to sing.
The main characteristic I hear in your lifted pallet demo is the exaggerated lowered larynx. Of course that’s gonna sound stupid. You can raise your soft pallet without doing that though, right?? Like, have no nasal airflow but still have nasal resonance because of sympathetic vibrations?? Try not lowering the larynx and try NOT having a sound that even you associate with nasal resonance. You can’t do it. Lowering the larynx a lot will give that dull sound that a lot of teachers demo as a bad sound, but that’s disingenuous. It still has nasal resonance. Nasal resonance isn’t caused by nasal airflow and can’t actually be stopped. It’s a function of pitch and acoustics. (The higher the pitch, the more resonance above the pallet because that part of the head has specific resonant frequencies). Also, that “having a cold” sound that coaches do to show why lifting the soft pallet is bad is them speaking with a lowered larynx and replacing nasal consonants like nnn and mmm with ddd and bbb. Like you actually have a blocked nose. Anyone who is lifting the soft pallet to sing, drops it again to pronounce nnns and mmms.
He sings good actually, but in his demo yes he just sound dopy To make it just imagine that U have a flu , and your nose is **** But , my self , I have to block the air flow in the nose to sing high
Exactly, he has misunderstood the concept. he raised his soft palate but lowered his larynx simultaneously, hence that noise. you surely dont have to lower the larynx and raising the soft pallet just results in a brighter sound.
It's amazing how classical styles have hijacked this topic. If you search anywhere for soft palate singing, you end up with 90% of content saying "raise your soft palate!" as if it were applicable to all styles. I accepted and adopted this earlier on in my journey, and looking back it's no wonder that I found that I could sing opera much better than anything else. Even though I desperately wanted to sing contemporary music. I wish they would stop spreading this misinformation and speaking as if classical singing technique is somehow the only authority on correct singing technique. Try singing Ed Sheeran with a raised soft palate, you will sound ridiculous. Might even hurt yourself by adding in tension elsewhere to try "fix" the inherently classical sound.
please could you react to any of V’s videos . his bday is on 30th december 💜💜 i would suggest you to react to BTS V vocal appreciation video🔥 / V live vocals compilation
