Another wonderful and informative tutorial from my favorite jazz vocal coach!

Dear Elizabeth, i stumbled on this video by chance while doing some research about how to twang as Im still finding it hard to get in that register effortlessly as many claim it should feel and must say that your video was the most honest and informative of them all 😊 many thanks for explaining it so well and making me realise i was straining my throat in my quest to find the mixed voice / twang!!

Hi Althea, I am so glad this was useful to you. I remember straining like a crazy person trying to find this twang thing. So when I teach it, I make sure to emphasize ease first. Nothing gained from making your vocal cords unhappy in the process. Happy singing! Elisabeth

Can I use nalsa voice when I want to reach high note?

[@Radiantlyrebe]

Why do some vocal coaches tells you to practice nasal exercises and to apply it to singing especially during head voice??

[@VocalMusician]

That's a complex question. We often use terminology to evoke a feeling in the student. The sound may not actually BE a nasalized sound but it may resonate in the nasal cavities and cartilages and feel "nasal" for the student. It also depends on what style of music you sing, but we so need these resonances when we do microphone singing, so we can cut through the band. Again, a very simplified answer to a complicated question.
