    Learning the riffs of your favorite artists is a cool way to understand their style and how they think about the music they're making. Practicing those riffs brings us closer to their music and also helps us understand the technical requirements of their songs. For this video I transcribed three riffs from three very popular (and very awesome!) vocaliststs:
    Riff one is taken from Beyoncé's song Drunk in Love
    Riffs two is taken from Sam Smith's Lay Me Down
    Riffs three is taken from Queen's Somebody to Love
    The specific harmonization and rhythm is adjusted in order to facilitate using them as vocalization practices. Enjoy!!

    Practice is paying off! Getting recognized of having a beautiful voice. (Most of the time)money is a little issue with obtaining backing tracks, but it will happen with time . I’m not gonna stop until then because it’s just part of my journey. Thank you Jeff

    Dear Jeff,
    Today i went to church and the visiting pastor said i had a beautiful blessed voice that i sang like a n angel. He was very happy and pleased with me. And my singing was great.
    I told him that i went to Berkley music school in Boston Massachusetts and then i went to new England conservatory in Boston Massachusetts.
    Both 5 years.
    Opera, and reading music and language arts in music to.
    I graduated from the schools.
    He said that today I sang with my soul.
    That's how i was taught to sing with my soul, up through my diaphragm and breathing to.
    Thankyou jeff your lessons are helping me quite a lot. And thankyou jesus amen hallelujah glory.
    I practice a lot with you
    Love and God bless you
    Susan morris from hyde park in Boston Massachusetts

      I love these too. Just getting back into singing after a gap of years. Trying both alto and mezzo warm-ups. The riffs are great. You feel like you're singing and forget that they are exercises.

    Hi Jeff, can you do more complex riffs and runs for mezzos? ❤️

    • @JeffRolka
      @JeffRolka  4 года назад +7

      Sure! I will, however, have to do it in all fachs. Can't let the mezzos have all the fun! :-)
      (I might throw in an extra for you though - just don't tell the other fachs)
      Best,
      Jeff

    Hey jeff! Is this a good one to do after the alto riffs? In regards to range I want to go a bit higher than the alto warmups usually go.

  • @megandsouza438

    Jeff, I am a soprano and I think I am weak and have no volume at the bottom of my range. If I do mezzo exercises will that help me build that up?

    • @JeffRolka
      @JeffRolka  4 года назад

      Great question!!! I'm going to cover this in Questions from Comments 3 - coming out in a few weeks!

    Hi quick question on the first part do we go into our head voice? Is just I don’t know when the switch comes. I do jump into mix voice. But I can’t any further.

    • @JeffRolka
      @JeffRolka  2 года назад

      In all my videos, unless they're marked specifically to be about belting, the idea is to make smooth transitions over your registration events, so yes, this would include using cricothyroid dominant singing voice (commonly called - head voice). As for tracking the switch, see if you can consistently find it in the same place on the piano while you're doing your vowel alignment exercises. That will be the way to find it in the most consistent location.
      Best!
