Your lessons are incredible! I've been doing the warm-ups along with singing my favorite songs 3x times a week for a month now, and the change is unbelievable! I can sing higher and amount of control over my voice is increasing, I can sing now without getting exhausted, whereas before 1 hour was my limit. 🤩🙏🏻💗
I did this lesson this afternoon but forgot to thank you - so thank you sincerely for this video. I have been battling one of those irritating dry tickly coughs for a few weeks so have been taking this steady, but after doing this lesson today I then managed to sing for a short while. I may have been able to continue but I am pacing myself. Some days I have not sung at all and I always heed your advice about taking care of the voice. I coped with this lesson well in the circumstances but I have pretty high resonance most of the time, but today I was "more gentle" with my voice. I am taking honey as usual before singing and drinking water throughout. This is a GREAT GREAT video Jeff, and you are amazing. Kindest regards.
Sure, you could do this on a daily basis. As for 'getting' perfect pitch. Despite the advertisements I'm certain you can find online, there is no evidence to suggest that once you've reached adulthood that you can develop absolute pitch if it isn't already emerging. Relative pitch can absolutely be worked on, however, and with practice can be nearly as good. Look for exercises in solfège. Best, Jeff
I find these quite challenging, I used to be a really apt Sporano, BUT I havent been singing for 6 years. My voice is weak and unsteady, will these exercises help me regain my tone and strength again? Much love, Nadia.
Take it slow, Nadia. Hard to say whether or not you'll sound as you did six years ago. The exercises themselves are the same that I would use in a lesson, in formats that I often use in lessons, but that is of course when the person is right in front of me. You'll have to listen carefully to how you sound, assess vowels that are out of alignment, as well as all other aspects of your singing. If you do that, all the information is here. I'm not holding back. Thank you for watching! Jeff
Loved this one Jeff!! just a question...on the last exercise , iieeeaaaoouuu....when I get to the "u" sound my throat itches...is that because I'm not opening enough? or not sustaining (as in, engaging the diaphragm ) enough? any idea?

Is this a good one to do everyday? Do you have any videos on how to get perfect pitch?

Hard to say! Itches though. Try thinking of the 'oo' sound (IPA u) as more of an 'uh' sound (IPA schwa vowel). See if that has any impact.

@@JeffRolka will try! Thank you!
@@JeffRolka it did help!! thank you!
