Sing Powerfully Without Straining - Placement, Resonance, and The Mask of Singing
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 9 сен 2019
- Did you know that you can focus your sound or place it in the proper spot in order to sing more freely and create an optimal sound? This spot is often referred to as the resonance or the "mask of singing" located in the front of the face like a masquerade mask. In this video, we will identify the hard and soft surfaces of the face and learn how to manipulated the sound in order to bring it to the front of the face for optimal singing and tone control. This video also includes exercises and warm-up so that you can practice on your own.

![How to Sing with Proper Placement [Learn Better Tone & Resonance]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/aN7U9XlZxBw/mqdefault.jpg)
This was the MOST helpful video for placing the sound in the mask!! I'm a first soprano who wants to be able to belt so I'm working on my mixed voice and all the videos say place the sound in the mask without telling you how! This was WONDERFUL thank you!!!
This is the EXACT thing I’ve been trying to learn! Thank you so much!!!!!!
I’m so happy this helped!
OMG.. this girl can teach! What a natural teacher. Thank you
this is the best video on placement i've seen!
Oh wow! Thank you! I’m so glad that this helped you 😀.
absolutely brilliant! In 12:42 minutes I was able to get a grasp of what my teacher was not able to explain to me for 3 years. Simplicity is the key! Thank you.
This is FANTASTIC. Noticed the diffference immediately.
3 WOW the "ooooo, eeeeee, ahhhhh" was coming from three different places. Hear what you are teaching. Sing from the same place, Ooooo moves out for Eeeee then Eeee makes room for Ahhhhh. Focused sound, sounds better! Thanks Singing Sensei
I finally found a video which really helps me improve in my singing. Very clear and well explained. Awesome teaching, thank you
Why is it so that most voice teachers i listen to, it feels almost like they are speaking another language that i dont understand. Then i stumble on someone like you Who makes perfect sense and you make it look easy aswell. Thank you for sharing
Such a comprehensive breakdown. I really appreciate it!
What an amazing teacher!!! 💖💖💖
This was the most help full of all other people’s videos I watched thank you very detailed
Cool 1 "The Mask of Singing" caught my eye in the title and then reading your description your words "sang" with understanding. Great read
I'm so mad at myself for not finding you until now. What a beautiful and detailed explanation. I found the answers to my questions. God bless you.😊
Amazing explanation of this concept. Subscribed 🙏
wow, so cool!!!I love so really much exercises about ressonance. Thank you!!
Where was this channel all my life ? Amazing content please never stop uploading.
Thank you! I really appreciate you!
6 was the actually level I got to when you were going up the scale singing the resonance exercise. From the 7th on I couldn't sing higher. That's my range. Cool to hear you singing higher and higher Sensei
Ty, that was awesome...I always wondered about placing the voice...you are my hero....
Really enjoyed this video lesson. Great content!
Thank you 🙏🏼
Great video! makes so much sense!
amazing explanations and exercises!!! i love your work, thank you:)
Glad you like them!
Subscribed as soon as you made the analogy!
Awesome advice, thank you!
Great great video. Thanks so much.
thank you so much!!! this is great, keep it up :D
I like to try to place my sound just behind my nasal area. I plug my nose and try not to feel vibrations, but strive for some resonance still. I like your video, you're very articulate.
2 love the comparison of the hard and soft places on/in the head/face to a hard surfaced room and one covered in pillows. See/Hear what you are singing/saying 😎
7 Your color Song is Gold:) Awesome easy song to remember and practice for stronger focus on my Mask of Singing. Thank you for today's lesson, yes you are our Singing Sensei
Happy day 🎤💗💗🎤
I NEED to join your Patreon. THANK you so much for this video (and your other videos). I have been struggling to FEEL the mask. I've been singing for over 30 years and struggle with hoarseness (I sing in a Gospel choir and praise team). I am finally able to figure out how to FEEL the mask when I sing. Baby steps....THANK YOU again.
Thank you for your help solved my problem.
This helps me A LOT thank you soooo much☺️☺️☺️😊
I’m so happy that this helped! Keep on singing!
Makes perfect sense. Works too
The house tip helped putting all the vowels in the same spot, i have a very heavy natural voice and i have a tendency to swallow my words, narrowing the vowels between the eyes, like youre pushing away something with your mind really helped, the voice cuts so much more powerfully i was even above my noisy rock band mates these last rehersals :D, it totally makes it easy to belt and overall focus the tone, like you have a place to aim to
this is the first time in months that I've actually felt like I'm not just getting information but can go along with the video and APPLY whats being said 😭 ❤ thank you so much. I've been struggling alot with proper resonance and have been going crazy trying to fix it. This definitely has given me hope on how to start doing that!!!!
Tapped this video so fast! Can't wait to learn!
Yeah!!!! So happy to see you in the comments again ❤️❤️
I’m glad these are helping you.
Thanks so much for this video!
Thanks so much for being here! I really appreciate it.
I've been learning to sing for about a year and getting much better, but I've been really confused about the terms placement and mask. This is the best video I found on the subject - you're such a clear and articulate teacher! This is super helpful, I especially like the colors exercise as a way to put it all into context involving a mix of different vowels with consonants as we'll encounter in real music. Thank you for this, now off to practice! 😅
you are an angel🥰☺️
5 yahhhh wow, it's the little things! The Y really opens the flow and I found the transition from Eeeee to aaaaa smoother, yahh!
REALLY G R E A T !!!!! THANKS A LOT!!!!!
Very helpful. Thank you!
So glad that this helped! Thanks for watching and thanks for taking the time to comment.
4 Ahhh, Oooo, Eeeee I'm excited! Now I know a quick "sound check" resonance exercise
The metaphor "to kick out from the house" - is just amazing !. It force to keep right pressure of air do not let that "ah" full down somewhere out.
And, "to lift soft palate but dont place sound there" - its amazing !. I was doing this mistake and now I wont thanks you 🌷

Fantastic explanations!! I thought I got singing through the mask until this video.
Awesome!
Thank you so so much!!!!
So glad that this helped 😀😀.
Genius!
Great lesson. You make everything so clear, Katie.
Awesome teacher
Thanks for watching and have a great day. I’m glad it helped.
The best things in life are free so they say. and they were right ♥
thank you♥♥
Thanks for being here 😀.
I figured it out. Your face starts vibrating but you can't force the sound there.
Glad this helped.
Thank u so much this really helped I need to vibrate my mask more
Glad it helped!
Thank you!
Glad it helped! Thanks so much for watching and have a great day.
8:00 exercises
The 9:00 is the exercise
Another wonderful video, I am sharing theses with my church choir also. Thank you so much.
I have a hard time getting the "Ah" into the mask.
Don’t be afraid to make the A a little brighter and focus more on the A sound of the vowel and not the “h”. Once you feel that very forward resonance of the A sound you can round it out a little bit w the “h”. Does that make sense?!
Damn that was helpful!!!!!
Love you😘
Thank you for being here, and congratulations on being the first comment!!
Tyler...TTP...getting this? Thanks for this lesson.
Thanks for watching! I’m happy it helped 😀😀😀.
Cool video! I don't know whether or not you do tutorials for guitar but theres this song called Amazing Grace / Jesus Loves Me / Alleluia and I've been trying to learn the chords(the same thing repeats the whole time)but I haven't found anything helpful on it. There’s only one cover I can find on it and I can’t seem to understand the strings he’s picking. Could you maybe look into this song? If not totally fine. Have a good day!
Idk if placing in the mask works for some people, but it doesn’t for me. I sound more masculine and resonant when I don’t sing in the mask.
Do we also need to place the high notes on the hard part ? To go higher? Maybe with less air though? And thank you for your teaching,you are too good 🌸
You are such an incredible teacher. I have a naturally low voice for a female and am very comfortable singing alto and tenor. Should I focus resonance a little lower in the mask or is this placement appropriate for all voice types?
When I feel buzzing it’s only very subtle and soft, I don’t feel it unless I really concentrate... am I doing it right then??
Now I know whats wrong with my voice, thanks ! One more problem is going to be solved :D
Thank you for the video! Sorry for the question … but how to open the lips correctly on the vowels? For example - E is like smile on the face … or … like vowel Oh
I have hard time doing this in a higher tone. Any tips?
The first part is so accurate omg. are u my neighbour?
Pls, do you attempt to place the voice on the two sides of the dome or just on one side?
What is the singing mask area ?
Thank you for your teaching. I am wondering is there a reason you are singing the vowels with an H at the beginning? Is it to make sure there is not a glottal attack?
Thanks for watching and I’m glad this helped. Good question. Yes, I’m trying to soften the beginning of the phrase to make sure it’s not harsh.
Hi, thanks for the video. Why is it that I can feel the oo and ee but I have trouble with the ah?
Can lower notes be sung in mask resonance?
Is this placement just for the strong/bold tone you're making? would you place the resonance elsewhere for a softer RnB voicing?
Is "forward" and "masked" placement the same thing?
I was classically trained and taught to send the sound back and up and bounce it forward from there. Also the vowals are all back and up for me, especially oo. Lots of space in the back. Is this wrong or just different?
I can only feel the buzzing feeling when I’m doing low notes. What can I do to fix this please?
I think it's more natural to feel them in the lower register and have a slightly lighter buzz in the upper registers because it's not in the chest voice. Try to place the notes in your upper range where you place your lower notes. It will feel slightly different because it's a different register, but hopefully you'll feel them in your resonance.
Not listen to charlatans like this on YT! Masque (not 'mask') resonance is a SYMPATHETIC vibration, caused by the entire vocal tract, not 'putting' your sound 'into the [sic] 'mask.' You cannot 'put' the sound ANYWHERE- it's vibrating air! Find a NATS-approved teacher, and not these YT phonies.
Is this the same as creating a head voice since it's all resonating from the head? What happens to the middle voice and chest voice?
Actually there is no place for the voice to actually resonate and project but the head, and the whole head voice , chest voice, concept is just a bs, cuz when you sing in said chest voice ,you feel more buzz in chest area, and that doesn't mean the resonance in the sound comes from the chest it comes from your vocal tract, the laryngopharynx oropharynx and nasopharynx. And when you sing in said headvoice the buzz in your chest disappeared cuz the working of the vocal cords change and the overtones shifted, and the formants that cause the chest to vibrate doesn't work anymore (not to mention it doesn't really come out as a sound) so it all happened in the vocal tract. And Don't be too dependent on RUclips , diaphragmatic support, resonance etc etc bs ok.
I don't have a buss but i do sound nasally when talking with my hands pinching my nose
What mic is that?
When doing the vowels are you supossed to have nasal resonance or do you have a lifted soft palate
I’d say both. You need space to form vowel sound and you need the tone placed in your resonance to project without straining. The placement will affect the tone. I hope that makes sense.
Does forward placement always buzz your nose if closed? Doesn't that mean I'm singing through my nose?
Yes
I can't feel my singing anywhere. I plugged my nose and got the right sound, but no vibration. What am I doing wrong?
OO house .Great

Hello! I'm kind of confused at this concept- I'm trying to find my mixed voice and whenever I do these exercises to find the feeling of the "mask" I either don't find it or can never sing normal notes. I don't really ever feel it- mind helping me out with this?
Me too, please help
Tbh I closed my nose and sang and then I let go and continued singing and my voice wasn’t nasally and I didn’t strain, is that mix?
No
when i do my high notes it automatically goes into mask is it a goos thing?
I think it's a good thing. You want to keep the pressure off of the larynx.
7:15
I can hear your mask vibrations through my headphones
...
I was today years old when I realized I have 2 separate but converging palates. I mean.. my entire childhood and I never-
If your nose vibrates are doing it right?
No
Yes
Soooo much fu-un lea-er-ningggggg🙂.
