I sincerely appreciate your detailed explanation. I never thought to try and “mock sing” while practicing this. It is extremely helpful in teaching muscle memory and proper coordination. It’s like learning to play piano with both hands instead of one at a time. It brings you closer-in and greatly assists in pre-singing confidence because you’re connecting the mouth shapes and actions to the correct placement beforehand. Thank you!
This was an absolutely a brilliant presentation. I have been taking singing lessons off and on over the years and sing at open mics and struggle sometimes with the theory. This video was an epiphany moment for me in feeling my voice and the resonance. I think you so much from Canada!!!!
That's great Roasannasfriend! It's mainly about speaking, although I am a singer as well as a voice coach. Would you be interested in more singing tips?
With the forward placement, wont more sound come out of the nose? My vowels change abit when pinching the nose with forward placement like this. I do however not sound nasal, but still as my voice sound nothing like a professional, i am obviously doing something wrong somewhere, so would appreciate an answer to wether i should still block ALL the air coming out the nose even with forward placement.❤
@@jimmycannonvoicecoach i mean how much time should i practice it per day and when like morning evening or at night? And can it help with vocal nodules please make a video in nodules structured.
Hi Erickson, thanks fo asking, but unfortunately I'm not planning to record videos about singing for the time being. I would however strongly recommend SOVT exercises for singing through your Passaggio. Hope that helps.
It’s a combination of keeping your Larynx flexible finding more back space, keeping the folds thin, and blending into your mixed voice. However, you might not beed or be able to find that note depending on your vocal range.
Another video about singing in the false mask. Yes the nose is the FALSE mark. The real mask in the forehead. Nasality is not good for proper singing. It results in a small constricted voice.
Thank you for your comment, but I don't have a restricted voice. The video is primarily intended for those who want to be able to sing higher without straining.
You are absolutely right we cannot « place » the voice in the forehead. The voice comes from the larynx, the throat and the mouth. But with a good breath support and a good position of the tongue and the soft palate the voice automatically « goes » to the forehead especially when you sing above the passagio. You dont’t place it there, it goes there. There is so much sound in the mouth that the vibrations go up and are carried to the forehead. As a result the voice gets much bigger and carries much further. Nothing should ever go to the nose except for a split second for the consonants N, M and GN. Of course this is the old technique of singing when the singers did not use microphone. Nowadays singers can manage singing in the nose and producing a small constricted voice because they use microphones even in opera houses.
Listen to the student in this masterclass:th-cam.com/video/ZIbgZp8d_Is/w-d-xo.htmlsi=aS7_Pm83xypRwoMS. He was trained to sing in the nose and hear the result. The voice is extremely nasal, small, pressed, pushed and squeezed. Jaroussky gives him all sorts of comments and advices but nothing about the nasality. He thinks it is perfectly fine. It is not. Maybe it adds resonance but it is bad resonance. In a small room with piano accompaniment it may seem loud but in a big hall with orchestra this kind of singing will carry only to the second row of seats. This student has a good voice and good potential but the voice is muted by singing in the nose. The voice is underdeveloped. It could be much stronger with much richer resonance if he had a proper technique.
@@marcelbureau2753 i barely sing with a mircophone(bonaok g50) lol and a blast the music to where i can hear it and just sing…but me having a smaller nose my sound will always be nasally sounding. But here’s the thing…i place my high notes forward and my low notes forward…the only time my high notes go backwards is if i fully do my head voice with complete resonance. I dont know how to keep my high notes backwards without muffling the sound a little.

Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for this video.
I sing six days a week in acapella. I am largely self-taught. Videos like yours help me to get better. More please!
Glad you thought it was helpful. I mainly do videos on speaking, however I occasionally get asked to do more singing ones.

My pleasure, and thanks for the comment.
Wow! Your voice has a lovely ring!
Well, thank you Jerel.
Thank you Jimmy, your videos are incredibly helpful!
My pleasure Ariel.
I came here and subscribed for your speaking tips, but I see you teach singing too, which is right up my alley! Thank you.

Brill x thank you , Jimmy ❤

No, don't block the air from your nose. You should 'imagine' the sound being more forward...
When and how long should i do this exercises
Until you can fee a change in your resonance, and you're no longer straining to reach the higher notes in chest voice.
@@jimmycannonvoicecoach i mean how much time should i practice it per day and when like morning evening or at night? And can it help with vocal nodules please make a video in nodules structured.
@@deepen9733 Consistency is the key really. So, doing 10 mins daily is a lot more effective than practising for 2 hours once a week.
Sir nasal resonance is helpful for hitting high notes?
Yes, because you're keeping the Larynx low and continuing to use the Thyroarytenoid muscles, but with a different voice.
@@jimmycannonvoicecoach thank you so much sir for this information 🙏🙏❤️
Really helpfull thanks!
My pleasure, thanks. Let me know if there's anything else I can help you with?
@@jimmycannonvoicecoach OK thanks!
How do i applay this in a song sir? Only in the high notes or in a whole song?
It's really about singing higher without straining in your chest voice (modal 1)
@@jimmycannonvoicecoach thank you so much sir,,,i really struggle in my high niotes sir and im hopeless
@@RODZACABOCATUBAY Well that's your first mistake... thinking that you're hopeless.
@@jimmycannonvoicecoach thanks for inspiring me sir iwant to be a proffesional singer sir i hope i can do good technique soon
Thank you so much
My pleasure
Could you also just make a video on how to sort out bridge breaks for males. My voice keeps cracking whenever I reach the D E F bridge

@@jimmycannonvoicecoach Okay thankyou. You should consider starting a singing program. I think you're really helpful.
@@ericksonj22 That's very good of you to say. You mean a channel or a course?
@@jimmycannonvoicecoach A course will do.
@@ericksonj22 Hi, Just recorded a video (although aimed at speaking) about your break. Publishing Monday @8pm
How to reach B5 ?

You cannot sing in the forehead…it’s through the nose or mouth
You are absolutely right we cannot « place » the voice in the forehead. The voice comes from the larynx, the throat and the mouth. But with a good breath support and a good position of the tongue and the soft palate the voice automatically « goes » to the forehead especially when you sing above the passagio.
