@@kentamplin You rock Ken, I think I'm going to sign up to your course now. Version 3.0! woohoo ! if I sign up monthly, will I have access to the whole complete course immediately? I might want to peak at the advance parts of your course. Obviously, I will leave everything at the door, take things step by step and progress through the whole course online. 😜💪🏼
Just to answer my own question. I just bought Ken Tamplins course. You get everything, absolutely everything. Almost information overload if it weren't for Ken's very nicely documented PDF's to help you make sense of things in a step by step manner. I'm going to leave everything and ego at the door and start my journey from square 0.
Ken, I almost cried at certain points on this video. You really gave today. I received. You gave details that I have been struggling with, but didn’t understand I was struggling with ‘exactly’ that, until you explain the different levels of competence. Thank you, sir. You spoken You have faith in Christ. I pray God blesses you and yours with even more wisdom and more capacity and capability to share effectively. This has been my favorite video. Thank you. 🙏🏼🙌🏽🎶🙂✨🌿
This is great for me who is a late bloomer, i mean i learned how to sing well when i was 36 yrs old, aged 38 when i first had my gig ,now i'm still learning how to sing but have improved that much by watching all these singing lessons on youtube...
Could you lay out what your progression from beginner to show-ready was like? What steps did you need to take before you felt ready? Sorry if it is a lot to ask.
The grandmaster at the modification of the vowel is Kevin Cronin. He mastered pronunciation and used this technique to form his originality. "I Will be here when you are ready... to roll with changes" Thank you Mr. Tamplin Another great live stream.
My local coach is a professional opera singer, mezzo-soprano, and when she start showing her singing is overwhelming for her vocal power and projection.
Vowel mods for Baritone will be roughly: at E4 (Pure "Ah" modifies to "Aw" as in "loft"). G4 (modifies to "Uh"). A4 (modifies to "Ooo"). And then at C5 the "Ooo" modifies back to Pure "Ah" for those super high notes... Is that the idea? Amazing!!
Well he actually starts to modify at C#4. But it's more subtle thing at the back of the throat. The articulation in front stays pure. That's where I stuck. When I sing B3-C4 I can usually sustain those notes but at C#4 it's impossible.

I would like to one day take an in person one on one with Ken when I get better at my singing just to hang out with him. Such a cool knowledgeable dude. 🤘🏾
I'm 38 years old I have been doing your You tube videos for beginners, since September I have played guitar for years, but I always wanted to learn to sing and although I've got a long way to go, I can tell huge difference
Thanks for keeping making up more and more teaching material, and presenting it in new ways. From the very first time I saw and heard your videos I could tell that what you were presenting was classic bel canto technique like I used to hear from old-time voice teachers here in Lincoln Center forty years ago. And you've applied that old-time methodology with more precision to the demands of contemporary singers in the huge varieties of styles of world music today than anyone I've ever heard. And you integrate that old-time method with what has become known since in the most knowledgeable and classic way with an emphasis upon the basics that singers need to know, even though I'm certain that you could trade technical terms with the best of the acousticians and "talking heads" in the academies today. And it's clear that you really love music and what you do to keep wanting to present it in new ways and from different angles. For a lot of us who don't really want our training to be much more than a sideline, because we have too much else we love doing, because music is only part of our work in education or in the ministry, because we're spending time with instruments, or arranging on our computers in GarageBand or Finale, it can be tough to find the time, or the will, to keep practicing and working on our singing technique. And then there's always professional and artistic burnout. But besides helping to continue to sell your product, the production of these new videos from new angles helps renew ourinterest and enthusiasm to keep going at it, and for that I thank you.
Awesome insights, Ira. What I would encourage everyone who is maybe entertaining thoughts of "artistic burnout" or thinking "I don't have time to learn singing" I have to tell you that it's an important life-decision. We can't choose to do everything. But then there are those who discover that singing can mean "everything" to them. I don't mean above family, or God, or earning a living... but each of us deserves to be able to give something we really want to ourselves. And for many of us, singing speaks to our hearts and our souls and gives us more of a reason to get up every morning. And to those of us who are wired that way, once we admit to ourselves that it's important to us, and that we deserve to give ourselves a wonderful gift, we find the way to make it work. We step into a new version of ourselves and move ahead with something that is an important life-goal for us. The voice is the most personal instrument. It's not external to ourselves like a guitar or a drum. It's a part of us, a part of who we are. It'a a no-brainer to embrace the possible and to make it a reality. What better way to avoid general life-burnout than to give a gift to our own wellbeing, to pursue an inner dream and to later realize that it's a reality and we're living it.
Hi Ken you are truly a wealth of musical knowledge the best vocal / voice training I have ever had a pleasure of listening to may God bless you please keep up the great work
I practiced vowel modifications alot and it really made poeple like my singing 😊😁 My inspiration for singing and what really made me motivated to practice it was Sia ! Because she is known as the queen of vowel modifications and she really helped me a lot in this technique
Sir Ken!..you are the vocal Jedi master grandpa indeed!! I LOVE your work and you’ve helped me tremendously even beyond singing, but through singing. Out of the slew of teachers from schooling to private tutorship, I’ve had 2 in my 43 years that were so very cherished because of their mastery of their respective subjects, but it was their Devine mastery of teaching that separated them from very good teachers, to the next level rarity of a teacher we find a few times in life if we’re lucky.
Fortunately I’ve had 2 in person and to my surprise I’ve added another who I’ve never even met and that is you my friend. On behalf of myself and all your students...THANK YOU KEN!! Your positive impact on us is immeasurable and priceless. And maybe one day when I pass through St Louis, I’ll have the pleasure of shaking your hand and telling you my appreciation for you face to face. Until then, keep on make us, your students, better and better video by video. You’re the best!!! ❤️
I like your site. You give a lot of practical tips on singing based on your personal experience. To me it's the real thing, not something too academic. Very grateful to have found your site.
Ken, if I had any doubts about whether or not I was going to take your singing course this video alone would've removed them. Wow! I love how you articulate these techniques. I can really visualize and understand what you're explaining. Thanks so much. I really look forward to learning how to sing better than anyone else! ;P
You build this over time so you can choose what color you want. Bel canto, beautiful singing. Two years in KTVA and private coaching. You set the vowel and forget it which was freaking hard to understand as a beginner. It needs time to build into muscle memory. Then when you go to sing your like OMG WTF?! It works. It's a pathway your body wants to take. I even feel the vowels move when I listen to singers sing. Ken I want your input on this. I don't know if I'm going completely crazy lol cause I literally feel where it's at in my voice.
Ok Chris Cornell, Did you really think we wouldn’t recognize your sweet self in this fine teacher? I knew you didn’t leave us, I’m going to learn to sing from Ken , in hopes that we may all harmonize in “Heaven” ..... Again 💜👱🏼♀️💜
Hi Ken as a newbie to learning how to sing I was absolutely fascinated by your teaching and has watched quite a few of your TH-cam videos. Thank you so much. Looking forward to the singing course soon 😊
Hi Ken. I think the best explanation and example of muscle memory training is found in the original Karate Kid movie: "Daniel doesn't understand what he is being shown. Miyagi seems more interested in having Daniel paint fences and wax cars than teaching him Karate. -IMDB.com" The specific and only way Miyagi has Daniel painting the fences and waxing the cars is for the sole purpose of teaching his body the muscle memory necessary for him to learn the karate moves that he needs to learn in order to defend himself. For those who have not seen that version of the movie, watching it for the sole purpose of seeing Miyagi's instructions will expand your understand of what Ken means when he talks about muscle memory. Studies of people with memory retention issues in which they can not remember from day to day what they did the day before have shown that muscle memory once learned; becomes instinctive. Which Ken also alluded too. But, even after you've learned the open throat technique, I suggest you keep consciously practicing it as you would do with any muscle workout routine. [EDIT] Here's a link to the original Karate Kid on IMDB www.imdb.com/title/tt0087538/?ref_=nm_flmg_act_46
I've been learning with you lately..from some videos. I hope someday i can sing my own songs maximally. Thank you for teaching me sir. Your teaching method is so lucid to me and i am trying to do the daily exercises.
Greetings! I am certainly not the only one to suggest this but IMHO vocal harmonies are a must for any vocal academy. Many of us heard "California dreaming", "Bohemian Rhapsody" or even Fleetwood Mac's "Go your own way" as good examples. BTW, I found an example myself. The INXS discography has two "This time" songs. One is a studio version from "Listen like thieves" and it sounds average. The second one is live version from "Live, baby live". Not only vocal and instrumentation sound better than in studio version but vocal harmonies in chorus sections make it truly "shine like it does".
Another indispensable live stream. That opening song reminded me of Cris Angel "Mindfreak" song for some reason. It would be awesome to see you singing it.
Thank you so much for the excellent Live Stream on this very interesting subject, Ken...I am watching it all over again now...PS - LOVE the pic!!!! 💗💗💗
It's very important that attendees become participants and stay engaged - it's their responsibility as students: they need to listen to everything that you have to say, right to the end otherwise
..and another perfect Eg: Ken didnt see' ..m to even like think about it just perfectly sailed right from his true character "and basically said : guy DO NOT HURT YOURSELF?SAFETY FIRST" GO get the free video and learn from it!! true CLASS ACT' !!
Could you make a video about how to protect the vocal cords when someone like me sings. I have a vocal cord disorder. John Hopkins diagnosed me as having vocal cords that work backwards. When I breath in my vocal cords close instead of open & when I breath out they open instead of close. I also, have had a paralyzed vocal cord, too. I grew up singing in choir at school for years and at church. Sang in a Choir at a influential church near D.C. I love singing but it is harder then it use to be. How do I heal the irritation possible damage from vocal cord spasms from the vocal cord disorder? Thanks for your time. all rights reserved
my vocal cords were harmed during a surgery & it triggered the vocal disorder. I also have acid reflux disease that is genetic. the vocal cord disorder was diagnosed with a lighted scope down my throat by an ENT. all rights reserved
Hi Ken, thanks for awesome content. I have an issue finding out what I should sound like, I often try to sound like the singer which is difficult when the song it too high which results in me sounding pitchy week, and not confident
God bless UUUU! I am about to give up singing! could you please tell me what should I search?U have lots of amazing videos!which one should I watch first?
I love this content Ken! Watching it back but will hopefully be able to join live next time. I’ve been training classically and am always looking for ways to transition to contemporary music, and this is super helpful
Dude this is GOLD! Haha I have to practice silently while watching your vids to get familiar with the feeling of the vowels, transitions and mods, diaphragmatic support, and I’m glad it’s dark and everyone is asleep🤣 Your lessons are my insomniac voice karate time😁 Who knows, maybe I’ll get brave enough to practice out loud while the kids are at school... but, Sensei... what will the neighbors think of me?😉
I_ need a good teacher in singing. I have just been following your videos on TH-cam but I would love to know what a course is going to cost. I have been in music since the age of 8 so it is 50 years and I play 7 different instruments and have my course in sound engineering that I did in USA. I really need your help to get better, I love the way "The Unforgiven" is done the way he sings with clarity and then changes to that huskey voice. For the life of me I am struggeling to remember the band's name after a very hard day of Goldsmithing, _
My course is available via streaming. I also teach via Zoom. For in-person lessons I am in Flagstaff, Arizona and Huatulco, Mexico. Please visit my website for all available options. kentamplinvocalacademy.com/
My mom had studied Chinese opera. She said in the old days they use those old style big plastic cups to train. Cove your mouth with the plastic cup and sing into it. That’s to train lung and clear words 😑
Hey Ken, great livestream, love these!!! I wanted to ask you about the course: I want to buy the course in the next couple of months,hopefully when a new sale comes again. But I wanted to ask about the course and the pro packs: the pro packs deal with head and mix voice, but what about that in the usual course without the pro packs? Dont you deal with head and mix in the usual course at all? I know theres the passagio and how to grow it so I can transcend between head and chest, but is there any exercise made for head or mix voice?
Thanks for sharing 🙏🏼. Working on the open throat technique. Getting stuck on the upper part of my chest voice on the “A” sound as in “Hey hey hey hey” ala Simple Minds Back of my tongue pops up and makes me sound like Kermit the Frog 🐸 . I will try to hit the same note using a different vowel. And will post on forums... any suggestions? (i am going to buy your course)
Hello Ken, can u tell me how long the sale is for the course? I'm going to visit my sis for the holidays and want to start after the 1st jan, which is my b-day....🙂
lemme try : heykeniou :)) yep sounds good! Bird's eye view? I like looking at the birds... but I wonder what they hear when I sing ??? ;) I saw a few cuts of some of your students singing..... and wow! the improvement is amazing... lol ken is building little rocket ships !!!
this is so crazy!!! I literary went from not being able to sing anything until last night man! I spent all night watching your videos and your techniques just seems to work so perfect! I just get it! But I still need a lot of coaching because I run out of breathe very fast at times when I need breathe to hold a note, can you help me with that..also my range!

I'm able to do the exercises correctly, and I definitely notice that I can hit higher notes without tension. My question is, once I start adding consonants to the beginning of these higher notes, I seem to get jammed up in my throat again and lose that open feeling I have when I just sing the vowels. How can I keep that open feeling while singing lyrics that often have consonant sounds to start the lyric? Thanks.
Ken, I have been practicing guitar quite a lot in the past and I could do it for 5-6 hours per day. What about vocal practice? What’s a good time frame to build it up to? I have a datum that after 2-3 hours per day the voice can get very tired or something like that. Is this true?
Can i have one question? When you do "Aa" vowel, do you feel it deep in the neck like when you do that famous "ng ng" or in front in the mouth? Keep this great work up! These are the most helpful singing videos out there.
As a 2yr KTVA student I can tell you Ken gave a thorough yet dense and powerful overview of vowel modifications in this video. Really well done.
To anyone reading this. I studied "Operatic singing" at the Royal Academy of Music. All I can say is Ken is the REAL DEAL. Thank you for this look into your teaching methods, not only does it perfectly align but it's the missing link at least for me to turn my classical training to the more popular style nowadays. 🙏🏼
Thank you for the kind words, U.P!

Good for you! Rock on!
Could you lay out what your progression from beginner to show-ready was like? What steps did you need to take before you felt ready? Sorry if it is a lot to ask.
The grandmaster at the modification of the vowel is
Kevin Cronin. He mastered pronunciation and used this technique to form his originality.
"I Will be here when you are ready... to roll with changes"
Thank you Mr. Tamplin
Another great live stream.
Awesome!
My local coach is a professional opera singer, mezzo-soprano, and when she start showing her singing is overwhelming for her vocal power and projection.
Vowel mods for Baritone will be roughly:
at E4 (Pure "Ah" modifies to "Aw" as in "loft"). G4 (modifies to "Uh"). A4 (modifies to "Ooo"). And then at C5 the "Ooo" modifies back to Pure "Ah" for those super high notes... Is that the idea? Amazing!!
Well he actually starts to modify at C#4. But it's more subtle thing at the back of the throat. The articulation in front stays pure. That's where I stuck. When I sing B3-C4 I can usually sustain those notes but at C#4 it's impossible.

Funny, today I have a keyboard without Ö Ä Ü for my computer.

Could you make a video about how to protect the vocal cords when someone like me sings. I have a vocal cord disorder. John Hopkins diagnosed me as having vocal cords that work backwards. When I breath in my vocal cords close instead of open & when I breath out they open instead of close. I also, have had a paralyzed vocal cord, too. I grew up singing in choir at school for years and at church. Sang in a Choir at a influential church near D.C. I love singing but it is harder then it use to be. How do I heal the irritation possible damage from vocal cord spasms from the vocal cord disorder? Thanks for your time. all rights reserved
my vocal cords were harmed during a surgery & it triggered the vocal disorder. I also have acid reflux disease that is genetic. the vocal cord disorder was diagnosed with a lighted scope down my throat by an ENT. all rights reserved
Hi Ken, thanks for awesome content. I have an issue finding out what I should sound like, I often try to sound like the singer which is difficult when the song it too high which results in me sounding pitchy week, and not confident
Lol, I followed the diaphragmatic support call and my lab started barking. I love your vids...and that staircase! Thank you for sharing and teaching😃
Ken,you're doing great. .
Thanks, Eugene!
Ken please teach me to sing like Pavarotti. I have the potential but not enough knowledge, your "OH" vowel was beautiful

Hello from Chicago! ❤️

Vinicius Sanctus 👍👍👍
I learned a lot of ur video how to develop my voice...
Great to hear!
Wow your house is so good and big!
God bless UUUU! I am about to give up singing! could you please tell me what should I search?U have lots of amazing videos!which one should I watch first?
I love this content Ken! Watching it back but will hopefully be able to join live next time. I’ve been training classically and am always looking for ways to transition to contemporary music, and this is super helpful
Phi Lam Music That's great to hear!
Sir,should I push down the larynx from the neutral position downwards while practicing ot should keep in the same position where I talk
I love the runni I get through the ropes example 🤣❤️
Thanks for everything sir
Dude this is GOLD! Haha I have to practice silently while watching your vids to get familiar with the feeling of the vowels, transitions and mods, diaphragmatic support, and I’m glad it’s dark and everyone is asleep🤣 Your lessons are my insomniac voice karate time😁 Who knows, maybe I’ll get brave enough to practice out loud while the kids are at school... but, Sensei... what will the neighbors think of me?😉
Can't worry about the neighbors or you'll never sing.
I know I’m like omg hope the neighbours don’t here me lol they will think iv lost it lol xx
You would love Scotland I live there it’s beautiful and people are really nice
@@missgloriouswhitemissglori6718 That’s lovely oh my goodness I’d love to live in Scotland!💖💖🌙🌤🌙💖💖
It’s beautiful and the people are nice well most of them lol but just lovely xxx
LOL Its at 5:48 that Ken mentions Paul from bonnie Scotland. My name is also Paul and I'm also from bonnie Scotland! COME ON THE SCOTS PEOPLE!
😊
@@kentamplin I'm glad I made your day. How do you sing falsetto? I'm struggling to sing falsetto.
I_ need a good teacher in singing. I have just been following your videos on TH-cam but I would love to know what a course is going to cost. I have been in music since the age of 8 so it is 50 years and I play 7 different instruments and have my course in sound engineering that I did in USA. I really need your help to get better, I love the way "The Unforgiven" is done the way he sings with clarity and then changes to that huskey voice. For the life of me I am struggeling to remember the band's name after a very hard day of Goldsmithing,

My mom had studied Chinese opera. She said in the old days they use those old style big plastic cups to train. Cove your mouth with the plastic cup and sing into it. That’s to train lung and clear words 😑
👍💜😀
Hey Ken, great livestream, love these!!! I wanted to ask you about the course: I want to buy the course in the next couple of months,hopefully when a new sale comes again. But I wanted to ask about the course and the pro packs: the pro packs deal with head and mix voice, but what about that in the usual course without the pro packs? Dont you deal with head and mix in the usual course at all? I know theres the passagio and how to grow it so I can transcend between head and chest, but is there any exercise made for head or mix voice?
Thanks for sharing 🙏🏼. Working on the open throat technique. Getting stuck on the upper part of my chest voice on the “A” sound as in “Hey hey hey hey” ala Simple Minds Back of my tongue pops up and makes me sound like Kermit the Frog 🐸 . I will try to hit the same note using a different vowel. And will post on forums... any suggestions? (i am going to buy your course)
Hello Ken, can u tell me how long the sale is for the course? I'm going to visit my sis for the holidays and want to start after the 1st jan, which is my b-day....🙂
At the moment is scheduled to run through Christmas. I may extend it to New Year's...
So this is the reason i always struglling on some song even high notes is literally easy if only sing "Laaaa"
Thank you very much sir
Most welcome!

hello from italy

this is so crazy!!! I literary went from not being able to sing anything until last night man! I spent all night watching your videos and your techniques just seems to work so perfect! I just get it! But I still need a lot of coaching because I run out of breathe very fast at times when I need breathe to hold a note, can you help me with that..also my range!

17:00 somethings to practice
I'm able to do the exercises correctly, and I definitely notice that I can hit higher notes without tension. My question is, once I start adding consonants to the beginning of these higher notes, I seem to get jammed up in my throat again and lose that open feeling I have when I just sing the vowels. How can I keep that open feeling while singing lyrics that often have consonant sounds to start the lyric? Thanks.
Your question is a great conversation for the forum, please consider posting there, you'll get great feedback!

Hi Ken! Just wondering what you think of Steve Perrys singing in his new song no erasin
Thank you so much i watching your all videos can you please tell me intro soundtrack.
Brillant!
Thank you!
Hi Ken ¡It's a fantastic day! God bless you ¿If i buy your curse i can Learn ti sing opera?
Oscar Espejo 👍
Ken, I have been practicing guitar quite a lot in the past and I could do it for 5-6 hours per day. What about vocal practice? What’s a good time frame to build it up to? I have a datum that after 2-3 hours per day the voice can get very tired or something like that. Is this true?
Ideally, you would spend at least an hour per day on actual workouts, and then any additional time using proper vocal methods on songs.
Thank you Ken.
Hey Bob! How ya been?! Still on the old forum? :-)
Was singing these vowels were Vocal warmup or Vocal exercises.
Or after doing the Vocal warmups can we do this as an exercise to improve singing???
Practicing each vowel?
Are you doing my course? kentamplinvocalacademy.com/
@@kentamplin Hi ken.
No, couldn't afford right now😅
Just an advice
Thanks ken
Can i have one question? When you do "Aa" vowel, do you feel it deep in the neck like when you do that famous "ng ng" or in front in the mouth? Keep this great work up! These are the most helpful singing videos out there.
