  • High Notes and Vocal Technique: Passaggio #2, Pavarotti Method
    Passaggio: Pavarotti said that the vocal cords vibrate only in the middle not at the ends as you enter the passaggio. Doing this not only gives you a smooth transition but gives you easy high notes as well.
    In this video I expand on the teaching from my first video on the Passaggio, "High Notes and Vocal Technique: Passaggio #1, Pavarotti Method. " • High Notes and Vocal T...
    This technique allows the vocalist to produce a vocal tone suitable for many different music genres from opera, rock to folk, country and more. You can hear me sing an original "Motown" style song "Come My Way" by clicking the link right below this paragraph. For this style of song my Larynx is not lowered as it would be for a robust operatic/classical tone but is in a more neutral position to produce a lighter more appropriate "modern" vocal tone.

    thanks for that! I´m a professional singer in musical theatre. this method is a completely new access to my passaggio, I basically have a good height, but its never effortless. I´ve been practicing this method now for a few weeks. Once I get it, I can feel how easy it is to go up. Right now its hard for me to repeat that way of singing, some days it works, other days I don't really get it. but I keep working :)

      Oliver, thank you for the comment. It took me about 6 months for this to become natural. At the time I had never heard anyone suggest approaching high notes in this manner but Pavarotti was right. It makes going to the high notes extremely easy. Here is another video where I discuss this method futher. All the Best! Steven

      There is no such thing as "dramatic tenor training". This tells me you need a new teacher. There is singing. Your voice will tell you what it is if you learn the science first. See my notes above.

    Mr. Burton, thank you for uploading this video 🙏 as promised.... The explanation is great. 😊
    I will try now to "tighten" my throat a little at the passagio ( F# ) and to try to feel that sensation of closing the chords a bit.
    It will take for sure time.... 😅 But I'm persistent and consistence person Sir. 🙃
    Ps. It is noticeable that you have improved the editing of the clips itself, congratulations and just keep going to do the great work. 🙏 : )

    • @stevenburton7922
      @stevenburton7922  8 месяцев назад +1

      Filip, Don't tighten the throat. Think of only a very light and gentle pinching or stopping of the vocal cords at the ends and then let the center portion of the cords vibrate easily.
      In reference to you other question as you ascend and sing higher the area of the center of the cords that is vibrating reduces. So at B flat4 you are vibrating approximately 65% of the center of the cords and at C5 approximately 50 percent of the center of the cords are vibrating. It is similar to the sensation of whistling a middle note and then whistling a high note. You will feel there is a smaller hole for the higher note. Also notice when you whistle a higher note that the breath going out of your lips is moving faster with less air volume than it is for whistling a lower note. Singing is very similar....Steven

    Fantastic video, but I have a question - does a person do that abrupt stop while warming up before coming on stage, or during the performance at a particular point during the song; how long do the vocal chords remain closed after that? Thank you very much!!

    • @stevenburton7922
      @stevenburton7922  7 месяцев назад

      I'm glad the video helped you. Yes you would only do the abrupt stop during warm up. About 70 percent of the center of the vocal cords vibrate at the F# and that area that is still permitted to vibrate reduces as you ascend. At the point of the high C 5 you are vibrating approximately 50 percent of the center of the vocal cords. The sensation for the area of the voca cords reducing as you ascend is similar to when you whistle a medium note and them immediately whistle a hogh note.....you feel the lips slightly pucker and reduce the size of the opening for the higher note. Also, as you ascend there is a reduction of the amount of breath volume while the speed of the breath will be a bit faster for the high notes. Think of a garden hose and what happens when you put your thumb on the end and reduce the volume of water coming out. The water speeds up and shoots futher but there is less water volume coming out at that point.

    How can you tell you are in the center ? Is it like singing on the thin edges. You can hear the covering, but since you cant see, singing in the center of the cords is like the " vocal zipper" and pear shaped tones"- confusing metaphors.

    • @stevenburton7922
      @stevenburton7922  7 месяцев назад

      Jef, Think of the sensation you have on your lips when you whistle a medium pitch note and then suddenly whistle a high note right after the medium note. When you do that you feel the lips pucker some for the high note. This is how it feels on the vocal cords when singing a higher note. You also feel the breath speed up a bit for the higher notes. I hope this helps. Here is Pavarotti explaining this also. Steven

      @80-d28 2 месяца назад

      I was just browsing the captions. I believe this is about using the thin edge function of the vocal chords in the middle register transition from heavy mechanism to light mechanism (chest voice into head voice) the idea is to reduce vocal weight in the middle for an easier transition. Staccato exercises for example are one way to train the thin edge function. I was also taught the use of the laryngeal tilt in the middle. It's not exactly the middle of the chords, but it's the point where one set of muscles of the larynx hands over control of the chords to another set. There's a lot more to this of course, but the overall goal is to sing freely without pushing your voice and prevent a sort of "tug of war" at the passagio.

  • @FilipPivec
    @FilipPivec 8 месяцев назад

    Just to re-cap...
    As we gove ,, higher" the vocal chord are more and more closed but... 👉 the diafragmatic support ( and mouth opening ) stays the same - perhaps just maybe with more diafragmatic activation 🤔 ( because the higher the note- requency the more vocal chord must vibrating = more air flows )
    Is that correct Sir ? : )

    • @stevenburton7922
      @stevenburton7922  7 месяцев назад +1

      Filip, For extreme high notes there is less breath volume going through the center of the vocal cords because the area of the cords vibrating is smaller BUT the speed of the breath increases. Think of when you put your thumb at the end of a garden hose...you reduce the volume but the water speeds up and shoots futher. Steven

    Thanks for posting this. Thoroughly fascinating on technique. It would be very interesting for me to see what my vocal chords are actually doing while I sing through my passagio. The imagery I've maintained up until now is bringing as much of my head voice down into my chest voice as possible while keeping just enough chord closure as I can without baring too much pressure, so as to still be free and not be pinchy. I do wonder if I am integrating some of what you are discussing here in this video where portions of my chords at the ends may actually not even vibrating as I negotiate through this range. Here is a warmup clip of me singing. Let me know if you hear any of this partial chord closure mechanism or not.
