    2 important keys for high notes(mixed voice). Make sure to get proper breath support-breathe from your diaphragm. Its common for people to tense up when singing high notes. Loosen up and Breathe. Keep your whole body loose and relaxed. Also think down rather than up when singing a high note. One last thing, everyone has the ability to be a great singer. It just depends on how much of your time your willing to commit/dedicate to practice. All things are possible.

    Don’t anticipate the high notes, let the googs do the work. make sure your core is completely relaxed, don’t force any notes, don’t reach up and tighten for notes. Put your hand on your stomach. Talk out the googs

    I am here because I have always loved singing. I just have never had the nerve to sing front of others. I'm getting married in November and I want to praise my lord Jesus christ by singing! I want my high notes to be on point! Please pray for me because I am crapping myself just thinking of performing front if others 😫

    Hey Christopher. This video is simply about learning to release into your upper register, blending the voice VS. pushing/yelling for it. HOWEVER, with experience, we can learn to add more intensity and chest voice resonance into the mix. Think of it as paint: Chest voice is black, head voice is white, mixed voice is grey. Those grey shades can be really dark grey (very chesty mix) or light grey (a headier mix). But, again, the very first step is learning to release into the mix itself.

    • @listeningdeeply7007
      @listeningdeeply7007 4 года назад +1

      I know it's been a couple years since you wrote that comment but I hope this'll help. The Mickey Mouse voice comes when our vocal chords "disconnect", break apart from each other, and we go in falsetto. This exercise is great exactly for this purpose, to shift from chest voice into head voice keeping the vocal chords connected, without breaking into falsetto!

  • @mamemu3130
    @mamemu3130 6 лет назад +7

    I love how you speak as if the person is right there in the room with you. I have my laptop down in front of me and it feels as though this is the case for me. Also, I appreciated your solely playing the scales because, occasionally, I find myself trying to match, not the key, but a coach's sound if I am doing the scale with them. It's hard focusing on myself when I'm focusing on them.

    This video legitimately helped me break through with mixed voice technique. Previously I had a mixed voice but it was more metallic and chest-driven, now I've developed a headier one which is way less strained.

    This may a bit random, but I thought about almost everything you said in this video while I was doing this exercise today.
    What’s amazing to me is the fact that I haven’t seen this video in like, 10 years.
    I guess you explain things so well that it’s really easy to remember. ‘Cause my memory is not that good lol.
    Thank you for the info. You’re a great vocal coach. God bless

  • @scottbw123
    @scottbw123 7 лет назад +45

    You are absolutely amazing. You showed me exactly what I was doing incorrectly and guided me to where I should be heading. I had one question though: I believe I have achieved mixed voice, but when singing in it, I notice that my voice will distort or make a kind of "vocal fry" sound. The same happens when I sing in head voice near my break. My break is around a G to A#. So, I'll be singing a note in mixed voice at a G and it will sound very unsupported and like it is going to topple over any moment. Do you have any suggestions for that?

Just so I could actually be. Physically practicing. I am not a professional singer. I always love to sing. I'm trying to work my way up to just be able to sing. I have been singing for the past 2 months. He's actually therapy for me. Also I watching you, I just learned so much, when I first went online to search for music lessons I felt as though a lot of teachers were basically teaching the same technique, but you have the most knowledge of teaching the best possible way, I would like to thank for all of your master techniques. I'm sticking with you. Sincerely Lisa d.

      When singing only apply as much pressure as you would to talk. When you’re about to sing, imagine you’re just going to talk. If it comes out flat and just feels uncomfortable then you need to do his warmup videos. Hope this helped!

I've just been waiting for a year hoping my high notes would come back so I'm a little more faithful now.

    Hey Eric, your videos have really helped me out in singing. However, I'm having the opposite problem from what you describe in the video, which was pushing to hard. I sing tenor 1 in my high schools men's choir, so I'm fairly familiar with my head voice. However, when I tried to go to this "mixed" voice, I simply fell into my falsetto. I'm having trouble not just jumping up into my head voice like I'm used to, and so far I've been unable to even feel the in-between voice your talking about.

    I wish he was my voice trainer in real life! I'm a singer myself, but i always sing with my chest voice, people say i'm a good singer, but i've never had proper singing lessons. Now he's taught me alot! :) i can now mix around with my voice using head voice as well :) thankyou !!

      nevermind, I should've finished the video before asking 😐 thank you

      Absolutely no. The falsetto releases a lot of air. Unlike head voice
