Voice projection is important for singers. This video helps all singers to manage vocal resonance regareless of style and period. It explains the relationship between voice range and location of resonance including description of passaggio.
For those who wrote negatively about this video: (wise up, don't just shoot from the hip)
Thank you for your critics. I am glad I am not perfect in your sight, which is true. Please read a short selected reference bibliography (below at the bottom:- I speak from extensive study and experience) to discover your ignorance and arrogance. (a dangerous combination.)
I started as an instrumentalist playing violin, trumpet and cello. I own and play four saxes, play Euphonium, trombone, the electric bass and directed Jazz orchestras. I can certainly say I am experienced in performing and directing many styles and periods of music. Most of my solo voice students sing pop. My students perform classical as well as pop, some professionally.
1. I put this video up for my vioice students in college. You are a only a guest.
2. I have taught solo voice, as a tenured professor, for over 40 years at the college level and privately in my studio. I was a young and ignorant professor forty years ago. But after forty years I have read a lot of materials and learned a lot for which I am thankful.
3. I directed choruses since 1966 and learned from doing it too. I have directed numerous Jazz, pop and broadway shows.
4. I had great teachers who opened my mind towards voice pedagogy. I have had many great opportunities for professional developments, paid by my employer at a community college.
5. Most importantly, I am not showing-off, though I have earned to do so. I do most of my work for my students. (They all got DVDs of their singing and my coaching after each coaching session)
I am afraid some unfriendly critics (only three, so far) may have been motivated by racism because I am not white or just blind attack out of innorance and/or jealousy, which is unnecessary. Hay, if you understand what I taught in this video, you would be able reap the great result of having this knowledge to benefit yourself. I charge a lot for doing master classes teaching voice using this proven and scientific technique. Go use my technique and make your bucks. This video is free of charge anyways. I have read a lot and experienced a lot so you could shorten your period of learning and use it without having to claim that you learned it from me. Am I throwing pearls before swine?
