Hi Ken, wow that’s a lot if geeking out on your voice 😊 here a song I got to sing with Trick The Light. m.ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-7vgLeM488Os.html Hope you like it. And thanks for watching!
Why do some people speak very nasally and a high and thin voice, but when they sing it's so warm and deeper. Do they purposefully drop their larynx so they don't sound too thin?
Ok but this doesn’t explain Ozzy “those summer nights when I look in your eyes..”🎶 not that I’m a giant fan of his but them high notes ain’t no head voice🤣
Hi Andrea, thanks so much for sharing. I really enjoy hearing these stories of voice changes and how you grow into your voice. Have Ana amazing weekend 😊
I am a mezzo soprano singer and my voice is really weak. It is easily stressed and I become unable to sing high notes. Worse, when I sing low, it becomes flat like a flat note 🎶. And to change from a high note to a low one is sometimes difficult like there is an invisible line in the midst.
Hi Chinonye, thanks so much for sharing. I’m a a mezzo soprano myself 😊 from what you’re writing I think you could benefit from training the connection between your breath support and your vocal folds. Exercises that are great for this include what we call SOVT exercises like lip trills, straw singing and buzzing. What I like about them is that you can do them along with any song, so e.g. trill your lips along with one of your favorite songs all the way from beginning to end. I hope it helps. Let me know how it goes 😊
@@singgeek Great suggestions. I just came across the SOVT exercises recently myself with the straw (didn't realize the old reliable lip trill was in that category). I wish Chinonye the best.
My voice is dropping because I'm transitioning (FtM) and I'm soooo insecure about the way it cracks. I knew the change was coming and I knew I wanted the low singing/talking voice, but I was so unprepared for how much range I'm losing! I appreciate not only that you made this video but how positive and supportive you are throughout. ❤
I'm an 80-year-old choir singer (women's choir). I have lost a bit of my upper range (B to C above middle C) and gained one or two notes at the bottom (C and sometimes B an octave below middle C). It's OK, we have an Alto 2 section where you have to be able to sing the D at the bottom. The problem is that some composers don't understand the contralto range and they just think the color is different with Alto 2 doubling Soprano 2. We don't get no respect!
I feel like having a lower-range male voice when I try to sing in higher registers my voice sounds weak and looses depth. Is there any way to fix this? 🙏🏼
Hi Alejandro, this is such a relevant question. It is possible to train your voice to increase depth in your higher range by some degree. To work on this you can practice lowering your larynx to create deeper overtones (fuller voice), mixing your registers to bring some chest voice higher without strain, and twang to get louder. I’ve made videos on all three topics on my channel. I think it is very relevant to work on increasing your range, but I also encourage you to embrace all the things you can do with a lower voice, e.g. all the dynamics and nuances that you can play with where no one has a voice that will sound like you. Hope it helps 😊
I have a deep voice. My dad sings bass,I could myself if I wanted to. Im 30 now. Our churchs choir songs are very high though. I know I strain myself on them. I've done this for years thinking I can increase my range this way, which I maybe have because I know I'm one of the louder ones, but what are your thoughts on this? I'm at the point now where I'm considering not singing in the choir since my voice is just too low. Our choir director says not to strain and be so tense but that is the only way for me to reach these high notes having such a low voice! We do more black gospel songs/contemporary. Aposyolic Pentecostal church to give you the kind of idea of what sings we sing.
what if you learned how to sing the notes equivalent to your tissatura and just did it anyway? it might be a pleasant surprise, i'm sure it would sound really good! community and inclusion are important. this impacts your health, since, you don't want to strain. i would hope they would be willing to include you, especially if you can figure out workable solutions yourself. when i was still in choir, our teacher accomodated students who couldn't reach certain notes by instructing them on a new part that would still compliment the rest of the performance.
Hi Felix, Thanks for your suggestion 😊 I actually was not familiar with Conan but I just had a listen. You might find this video interesting ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-3YrGHbEDCbo.html Some of his lower stuff could definitely be good to sing after a voice drop, and if you get control of the head voice and mix his higher singing is a great challenge to practice with as well.
may i know why do i have so much vocal fries even after doing it again and again it doesn't goes away.. and i feel like can't sing without doing them ..... im confused please help! do i have to keep doing them ? or i should do other warmups
Hi, and thanks for your question. The vocal fry you mention, is it when you sing low notes? Or more like a general rasp on all your notes? Do you feel it when you do unvoiced exercises like, for example the lip trill or humming?
