You are the best at explaining the physical sensation of correct singing. High notes: lean back and up. Vowel sounds/mouth shapes. All of it! Your explanations are wonderful and actually make sense, whereas other videos/channels are like "raise the soft palette over the larynx into upper middle chest register to push your breath through your diaphragm and inhale through your eyes."
Totally agree!!!❤
hahah😂 yes, always remember to inhale through your eyes, very important 😌😆
thank you so much for your kind words!! I'm so glad the videos are helpful! 🥰
@@stephanieweinberg9633 awe thanks! 🥰
😂😂
This is one of the best videos for this particular topic which I‘ve seen in a long time here on TH-cam.
Thank you very much for the clear explanation.
I‘ll use your your tips to fix my technique.
You‘ve done an amazing job with your video.
Thank you very much for sharing your tips with us.
Greetings from Austria 🙂
thank you so much, I’m so glad it was helpful! ☺️
@@katecosettevocalsYou‘re welcome.
Keep up the great work.
You‘re amazing. 👍🏻🙂
You inspired me to sing ❤
I’m so glad! You’ve got this! 😊
This was extremely helpful and you’re such a great teacher! It’s so rare to find someone who has the ability to explain and demonstrate in an intelligible way concepts that are often so abstract and hard to grasp ! Thank you so much for this video.
Are you planning on doing a 1 H course for placement and breathing as well ?
thanks so much! I’m so glad it was helpful! ☺️
I am planning on making one for placement and breathing as well! However I still have to make a few new placement videos first to make a truly comprehensive course for placement haha, but it’ll definitely happen! 😄
Can't say thank you enough 🙏🏼
happy to help!! ☺
Amazing job at explaining abstract physical concepts.
All the best to you.
thanks so much!
fantastic lessons!!!
👏 ❤
thank you! :)
I am a beginner & this is Gold!!!!Thank youuuuu :)
I’m so glad it was helpful!! You’ve got this! :)
You should get more reach.. Your explanation are to the point and really awesome. Thank You
thanks so much!
This was so helpful. Please make a video on how to sing in the “mask”
I’m so glad it was helpful! ☺️
Singing into the “mask” is just another way of saying to sing in chest voice placement, which is a forward placement where the voice resonates close to the front teeth/front of the face. Here’s a video of my 2 favorite exercises to get my voice in that placement! th-cam.com/video/eNhCeboMvwU/w-d-xo.htmlsi=lWAezA9vwyK8yI8D
Thank you so much for this video! I find this exactly at the right time
Very helpful! Great work :)
thanks so much, I’m happy it was helpful! :)
This is so kind and sweet, ty🧡 However I'm still struggeling with the technical part of singing and I stil dont know what that is. Its really bugging me. Is it possible to have one private session online?
Of course! I’d love to work with you! ☺️ here’s the link to my lesson information: www.katecosettevocals.com/schedule-a-lesson
If you have any questions at all let me know! ☺️
Can it help me with intonation issues? My "closed" vowels are in pitch, but as soon as I open mouth I land 20-40 cents below in an instant. I'm pitchy after training regularly for 1,5 year :(
Do you find that you normally sing a bit loud? I’ve found that 2 things affect pitch that have nothing to do with hearing or being able to replicate pitch: one is vowel shape, but the other is pushing too hard. I’ve had a lot of people who sing too loud or push too hard who immediately become pitchy. Try doing the same thing but singing at lullaby volume. If that fixes your pitch issues, that’s the problem. For that, it’s a placement thing (learning to sing chest voice in the proper placement so you don’t have to push or add to much effort). Let me know if that helps - and just keep in mind that singing quieter should be easy & relaxed. If it’s harder, then that’s another placement issue for a different register (head voice). Let me know how that goes!
