    I've watched hours, and hours, and hours, of TH-cam videos on singing. This video was so concise, so easy, and so effective I think it's one of the videos that truly helped me conceptualize a "missing piece" I've had with learning to sing. Thank you!

    Since I haven't seen anyone else mention it; was the melody you demonstrated the english horn solo from Dvorak's "New World Symphony"? It hit me out of nowhere as an oboe player!
    Also, thanks for this wonderful video, I have to learn overtone singing for a class of mine and this is a great start!

    Wow, this is the most awesome, comprehensive and informative video that I've found on this topic. Listening to You sing these dual tones, is so amazing!! They didn't teach this technique in classical voice training, or in opera workshop or in any of the music classes and training that I've had over the years. You make it look so easy. I'm trying really hard not to be jealous (lol). Thank you for sharing the wind sound blowing exercise, because that helped me understand my tongue placement and how to move the pitch of the harmonic tone - and thanks for explaining that it's best to sustain the base note for as long as possible to have more time to harmonize.
    I could get the polyphonic whistle tones after a couple of attempts! I'm going to practice to make sure that my harmonic frequency sounds like a whistle sound - rather than like a Didgeridoo. Thank you for sharing this fantastic video!

    Thank you very much for sharing your skills. I can use your vocal training to help me with my movement trouble. I have a rare neurological condition and I am learning how to control my vocal cords and breathing. I use to practice meditation with breathing and singing helps my breathing skills. I have a natural ability to sing well too because of my mom. She was a musical genius. Sadly drug addiction caused her to lose everything and she wasn't able to achieve her dream to be a singer. Instead she passed on her ability to my brother and I. We use to sing together for fun and we even had a band and I was a DJ for years for small events. Mom passed away from cancer in 2016. I am autistic and I am trying to figure out how to get my artwork noticed. I have a feeling art is over done and I might be stuck. 🤷🏻‍♂️ I am okay with it. I've never been able to work because of my handicappies. I thought practicing my singing again can take my mind off my anxiety so here I am. ❤️ You are amazing.

      Thanks! For this /ng/ exercise, let the back of the tongue touch the roof of the mouth to demonstrate the location of the soft palate where you should focus the vibratory energy of your singing. Of course, the tongue drops back when producing overtones. Keep going!

      The best way to improve is to practice MUSIC and improvise a lot. My book MAKING MUSIC WITH OVERTONE SINGING has songs, lessons, and exercises for overtone singing that will give you plenty to work on (definitely get the recordings too). After that, I will help you if needed. www.stuarthinds.com/store/
