  • Would you like to know how to blend vocal registers when you sing? Specifically the nose and mouth registers? Well, in the video we go over how to mix your upper vocal registers together for seamless transitions and smooth shifts without vocal breaks. We will be working on balancing air pressure between your mouth and nasal registers.

      Try this. Practice into a cup, like those blue or red ones and poke a small hole in the bottom. You will be able to sing in a full voice without disturbing someone else too much! Try it!

    Fantastic. I remember asking you about this very subject a few months ago, when you said that Dimash's ability to go through different register shows his ability to balance his air pressure or something like that. I asked you what that meant. So either you remembered the question [Even if you didn't remember who asked], or this is a wonderful coincidence. Either way, thank you.

    Hi Madeleine!
    I just want to let you know that among all the different vocal coaches on TH-cam, I find your explanation the most useful to really understand how mixed voice should work and sound like. Many coaches encourage the use of nasalities to help identify mix, but doesn’t necessarily give good explanation why that is the case - a misbalancs of air pressure between mouth and nose as simple as that.
    I think many haven’t succeeded in accessing the mix is because of dominating mouth pressure, so practice takes time to accommodate in that nasal space (the mask).
    It’s easy to fall out of that space and going back to just mouth and we strain as we sing higher in chest register.
    I really want to thank you for making such good videos and insightful singing advice!!!!!

    Hi Madeleline, please correct me if I am wrong. I tried many times to do your practice and below is my conclusion:
    The "I say No" exercise will work like the way you demonstrate only if we raise our soft palette and keep it tight for the compressed air to pass through. Otherwise, it will not sound as solid and projected or full like your demonstration. Thank you very much.

    Hi! I’ve been practicing different exercises in a regular basis at home for a while now including this exercise and I feel the resonance in my nose and mouth...
    But as I control to do this exercise , it halls mostly to the throat and it slightly starts to hurt... what am I missing?
    This has been a problem for a while now and I haven’t been able to fix it! Really frustrating of course because when I talk, the sound falls straight to my throat and nothing really resonates ... people can barely hear me! And after a while; my throat hurts.
    The only thing I can think of is throat tension and being so stuck in my throat for such a long time, that’s it’s just so much harder to connect the different registers of my voice... I’d really love to fix this.
    Any advice helps... love your videos! Thanks so much!

    if you are trying to activate the nose when singing, what would be a good note to begin on. i am a mezzo soprano, and usually find myself starting on a c4, which, when doing the excerise, does not give off the feeling that the nose is engaged.

    how can we sing in the middle range slightly loudly without the tone sounding cloudy? when I add that gritty modal speech sound, it sounds better, but then I feel like the rest of my voice needs that and I don't really want that tone in my singing style. what should I do?

  • @MadMusician
    @MadMusician 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Is balancing vocal registers something that allows for a good transition (as opposed to a break) from chest to head voice? I know how to balance chest and head voice into a good & powerful mixed voice and based on that am wondering if that allows a better transition.

    • @kingwillie206
      @kingwillie206 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, and that means you are doing what she is describing whether you know it or not. You will find that the higher the larynx, the more nasal, so it also means that you have a stable larynx when singing as opposed to it shooting up when trying to transition. Does that make sense?

    • @MadMusician
      @MadMusician 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      This does make sense. I might have a suspecting reason for this problem after I say that problem: even when I transition from chest to mix to head I VERY RARELY am able to go to head without any amount of flipping/cracking. I feel like my age might be why it's so hard. I'm assuming for most people that use mixed voice have very little trouble smoothly transitioning for chest to mix to head. But even after singing with a mixed voice about a year I still can't keep from flipping, which is why I feel like it's my age interfering (I'm 18 yo btw). I can only go from chest to mix and then I'll flip to head after that. Another thing: when I say sing with mixed voice I mean it has been successfully used for almost every song I learn. Literally it was Madeleine who showed how it feels to belt in her videos titled "How to Belt High Notes" and "How to Develop a Good Singing Belt" (kept what that felt like in my head) and just started to automatically apply it to songs (most of them DEFINITELY would require it). Since then it's literally become second nature. If you don't like me explaining this, it's because I have never been able to share my vocal journey to someone who actually cares as much as I do. My mother is the only music person and her strength in music is only instruments, very little about the voice aside from the basics. She's never even heard of a mixed voice until I mentioned it to her. I'll stop, this is becoming too long of a response.

    • @Me-ec1qj
      @Me-ec1qj 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Me
      I had this exact issue for years. I only sang in mixed or head voice and would use twang in those registers which gave a very beegees like sound especially in mixed voice. I finally realized years later I had no chest voice developed. You likely need to work on chest voice if you have that weird tone coming in from mixed voice. I think mixed voice for some people can only have so much vocal pressure before it’s time for chest to come in

  • @lolamiley
    @lolamiley 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    So I’m a little confused. I’ve learned that in order to achieve optimal resonance, you need to raise your soft palate, and doing so closes off any airflow to your nose. Is this not accurate or am I just misunderstanding something

    • @kingwillie206
      @kingwillie206 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes! It is all interrelated. A stable larynx will help with transitions. You will notice that a bad transition will occur when the larynx shoots up and causes too much nasality. Easing the larynx up will take from chest to mix to head.
