- How to sing high without strain - part 1 of 3. I put together a video series for you on how to sing high without strain. There's a couple of different factors in singing high notes and also straining in high notes so I've put this video series together for you in three different parts. Today's video is all about the center most points of the sound, which is the aiming of the air.
If you want to sing high without strain, we have to address the elephant in the room. What kind of things contribute towards vocal straining? Now there are two really big factors. There's the pushing of the air into the mouth. So if I go I'm pushing a lot of air into the mouth. Now that might be fine on a note or two if we want to drop into this into a belt but it becomes problematic when we're trying to go from note to note to note to note we just carry a lot of air pressure upward and that becomes problematic because that air pressure eventually has to release. That's where that massive break comes in. So that's too much air pressure and is the influence of the jaw the tongue or the throat. They will sort of create an obstacle that the air has to work around and sometimes they create too much of an obstacle and it slows the air down so much that it pinches it off. So we're going to talk about both of those things in today's video. So we've got Amy on the air and relaxing those muscles so let's address the very first one which is the aim of the air OK.
Let's just go ahead and observe a nice neutral sigh. So anywhere you wish on any pitch. If I just go yep let's try that together on any note. Now I bet you I met you. You did not think you didn't place the voice before you sighed. No no no. You just let the air tell you where it needed to go. Now that's crucial that's really crucial too high notes. We need to be so still that the air tells us where it needs to go. So that's part one of our work so let's observe that right now. Be still inside. Try a different pitch. Then you can experiment with that all the live long day. And I would be so happy with that and you would notice that you do not have to put the voice anywhere you don't have to place the voice. Just consider that for a moment that there is a profound difference between making something happen and letting something happen. So high notes are the release of the entire mechanism. So it's very important that we let them happen. But it is helpful that we know how to aim that air. So that's the very first when we aim the air naturally by saying the air tells us where it needs to go. The second part is that we have to consciously relax the things that will influence the voice which are the jaw the tongue and the back of the throat. Now what do I mean by influence. I mean that they create an obstacle so much so that the flow can't make it past those areas. So it gets pinched off. This is what that sounds like or yeah we all know what that we all know that feels like what that sounds like. There's too much of an influence from throat the jaw and the tongue. They're just interacting too much.
So we've got to know how to aim the air and relax the voice at the same time. So we do the aiming with the sign. So now let's relax the voices feel what that feels like the best ways the best way for us to do that is to battle the head go ahead and with your head with me and notice in the Boeing how the relationship between the jar and the back of the skull was just changed right. Right. So go come back neutral. And notice how neutral how normal that is. The throw is in a nice semi open position and as we bow the head it becomes narrowed because the relationship of the jaw in the back of the skull. Now we can leverage this. This babbling allows the tongue the jaw and the back of the throat to remain in almost lazy position almost collapsed position. Now it will alleviate that but if you have a strong tendency to use them it's not going to eliminate it entirely. That's where you come in.
So in our babbling we're going to notice how relaxed the jaw is by noticing its influence gravity's influence over it. So can you feel right now in the back of your head. Gravity pulling at your jaw your face throat if you can register the feeling of gravity then I want you to sigh and feel that you can remain still as you say that no past those areas. For example Yeah I can remain still I could actively relax as my air moves past that. Now let's try the moving up from there. Now just as a reminder we're just signed we're not trying to give the note any quality. We're just feeling the air flow now again. I'm just going to sort of free trade I'm gonna step in if that's fine if that feels high to and if you're starting to notice that the tongue and the jaw and the throat are trying to do something to make that note happen then I just want you to get off of it. Know it just touched sort of be around it and just touch it.

Can i just say: i have taken a couple of voice lessons from different teachers, but just watching your videos, regularly doing my exercises with you and your emphasis and just exploring and playing with your voice has helped me so, so much. Many thanks.
I've always had issues with jaw tension and just lack of confidence singing high notes but this has helped so much already! Thank you so much for this series!!
You're back! Thank you. This is always a need a topic for people. Even when you are an expert.
Thanks for this video!!! It’s so helpful! I can’t wait for the coming parts!
Im getting much better in one time by your teaching, love you so much,keep going to post good content
Thank you very much! Your classes are of immense value.
When I used to sing high I used to always strain and today I found out that it's because I've been looking up this entire time it may not work for you but I recommend trying to saying that's how you know while looking down I really hope this helps at least somebody else that way I don't feel weird
Thank you so much, Madeleine! I enjoy your lessons. They are challenging to try and SO helpful! I don't sing anywhere but I love to try to sing and practice when I can...😊
Thank you very much!!! I searched for videos like this, I realy need it. You are my lovely vocal coach ♡♡♡
Cramming a bit before the end of my college vocal class, which has gone online. I really appreciate your personality in these videos right now. Thanks for all you do!
I literally did this for 10 seconds and felt a profound difference. Thank you, love! 💖💖
Your lessons are so informative. I love the physiological explanations! It really helps visualize what's happening in my voice :)
You are a fantastic teacher!! You have managed to find the balance between demonstrating what you are talking about, explaining the whys and hows, and just having a nice attitude. I felt like you were with me and responding to the questions in my head. Subscribed as fast as I could!
Thank you so much for this! I’d love to sing better, and my voice gets so tired so fast when trying to sing high notes. I’ve been just fighting to strain to hit them, your methods make a world of difference. I can’t wait to keep watching more!
So wonderful to meet you too! I learned a new technique with you. Blessings.
Thank you Madeline, Your videos have given me vocal strength back

This was just what I was looking for! Thank you so much!
That was really helpful! Thanks, as always Madelaine
Wow, this exercise is amazing! My range is G2-G5. When sighed I suddenly did the G5 perfectly clean while it's the top note of my range. I will keep on training this. Thank you very much! I have to admit that relaxation is very important. Keep up the good work!
Wow! G2 - G5??!!!!! That is so good! Wow. My range is E3 - G5 in my chest voice😂😅😅
@@jem7016 You have the same vocal range as me! Woah
how did you get to G5?
You're really a great teacher.

Thank you so much this helped me a lot!!
Me trying to do karaoke and realising I can’t sing as high
Me-
didn't see the tattoo before. you rocking it!
Wonderful. I can't wait to take notes on this. Question, when you are lowering your head, it's only slightly, right? Because otherwise I would think lowering the head what kind of constricts your throat and air passage.
Just volunteered to lead worship in three weeks! This will be the FIRST time EVER, I’ll be doing this! This is super encouraging right now. Although I’m worried my neighbors might be annoyed with my voice exercises 😂 🤷🏽♀️🙈
You explain it really well!
Hi, I was wondering can you make a video on how to belt low notes? When I try I’m afraid of sounding shouty and when I use more air It goes up in pitch, by the way love your videos!
That helped so much on this one stupid note I have been trying to get! thank you!!!
Your videos are just great !!! You are an amaing teacher. It is so interesting and clear and fun. Please keep posting videos.
I really needed this, I am an alto that is trying to expand my vocal range and every time I sing high- pitched this happens

Hi Madeline ! I am following you from a long time as my personal vocal coach at home. I am so glad that you're always here to help. But I have a question, as im watching all your videos like binge watching and exercising along, I am scared to get a vocal pain, my vocal cord hurts after singing for half an hour straight and even my voice changes and lowers cuz its tired. I don't know the right technique. *If I did this twice or three times a day will I get better results soon or once a day is enough, cuz I'm not really sure? Please reply*
You are so amazing l have gained so much knowledge from you
Thanks!
This might not be anything major, to most people, but… as a G2 voice, ai was able to hit C4… IM SHOCKED.

Hello Madeleine and thank you once again! May I ask, generally how long does it take to see results in our singing after implementing the exercises that you demonstrate in each video?

Oh my goshh❤ at first I could only get my throat to relax until G on a lower octave... But then after I kept practising I understood what the 'air flow' was and it made my throat feel like a flute😲 Now I can follow through to the end of the class! Thank you so much!

A helpful start. And a beautiful tatoo!
I actually used to sing for a lot of time (almost 5 years) before I took a hiatus for 2 years. now when I sing high notes, all it hurts is not the upper part of the throat but the lower part. like, where my collarbones meet, the part hurts when I sing high notes. how do I solve that?
Me too. No idea how to resolve this
Just hit that subscribed that button! Do you have any tips on how to sing the high notes on All I Ask Of You? "Anywhere you go, let me go too" how to hit and sustain? Don't you think that that is a really tricky one? Thanks x
Wow. Just wow
omg this helped so much
hello your exercises are really useful and i tried keeping my jaw down and practise but there is this itchy thing coming in my throat which leads to strain and if i do it keeping my jaw in middle i am able to do it but not able to extend it for long ,soo can u tell me what should i do??
A cat came in to my house after hearing my sighs :O Nice!
I have a huge question. When I’m singing I have a huge vocal break that skips 5 notes in the middle of my mixed voice. Can you please help? Edit: nevermind, I fixed it
Hi Madeleine, I have some thing strange, which I am sure it maybe is able to correct. I am sure it is the soft palate not staying up or some thing but when I sing I sound both nasal and with sounding like I have peanut butter in my mouth when singing. same with speaking too. I want to hear from you on my issue. could you make a video on this subject?
