I enjoy your teaching because you're thoroughly knowledgeable about the the vocal apparatus. The other reason to not manipulate the larynx is that more times than not, the pitch will be off!
I am a voice teacher also, and you are absolutely correct on this topic. I agree that the larynx should remain neutral and should not be something that we talk about with students. If the voice is free of tension and the mechanism is working properly, it should be a non-issue. I’m enjoying your videos very much!
@@Vivi16392 I would say yes. All of the parts of the vocal apparatus is the mechanism. it should all work because of breath and support; not because you're manipulating it, such as pushing on the larynx.
Thanks for this video and I always had struggled with this even way before I had surgery on my throat I always had doubted myself that I couldn't be able to sing vocally until I had got better but now I still have been struggling with it since I was in choir way before I had any training at all from other ppl
Strange mine tries to climb up the higher I go? It tries to lower while going to lower notes. Of course after years of training and singing mine stays pretty neutral throughout my songs. Maybe I misunderstood the concept here. Thx for your great vids and teachings.
I think she’s describing the feeling versus what actually happens. That way we can “emotionally” understand the posture better than just throwing anatomy facts at us.
Here goes down cuz she’s a trained singer. The tendency is people tend to start increasing their larynx as they go higher which is wrong so you gotta train yourself to inhibit the raising by thinking of lowering it just to keep it neutral until that becomes so engrained you can more easily just keep it neutral with no conscious effort
My problem is , I can sing really soft but when it comes to a point where I'm suppose to go higher , it's like I don't sound good or maybe I'm afraid it wouldn't sound good so I change to falsetto when going higher .. so I want a help at that point ..😭💔🙏
Freya is basically saying that there should never be pushing on the larynx. Keeping it "neutral" is letting it move naturally, not because you're pushing it. The pushing usually occurs to get more power or "oomph" with lower notes.

Haha, you had me at that demo : )
you forgot the part where you show how to sing with a neutral larynx 😅
German singer Herbert Grönemeyer has a very unique voice - Flugzeuge im Bauch is fantastic singing it live he's really good

right, but you say : if the mechanism is working properly ,,,, what's the mechanism working properly ? is the larynx involved in that?

Always terrific!!! Congratulations!!!
Very well explained

That part confused me because most coaches say that the larynx goes up naturally when you sing higher and does the opposite when you sing lower.

Mam, if possible then please add subtitles...
Hi Freya! Can you put a subtitle on this video....? Thanks! ......The rest of your videos I've watched have that
For me it is so difficult to know, when which part is involved. And I still have absolutely no clue, how to control the parts intentionally.
I think it comes with a lot of experience, and knowing the science behind voice production.
Can you review singer/songwriter/musician H.E.R’s vocals.
Hi Freya, Can you comment on the role of the larynx in producing vibrato?
Yes, thats an interesting one.
Thank you❤️
my larynx loves jumping around.. ALOT.

I do the same, I'm sure it's our breathing technique.
Where did she teaches how to keep it neutral?
Keeping it neutral is not pushing on the larynx. It's relaxed, and does what it does naturally.
@@jillsalkin7389 that stuff is not true...your larynx is never relaxed even while singing
Boy this didn't explain anything sorry
