I've been having problems with tension in my throat while belting high for my whole life. In between this video and your other videos I've discovered another spot that resonates in the higher frequencies with less tension. Now all I have to do is unlearn a life time of squeezing to get high.
+Gisy Boo No! No! You OWN that Jamaican glory!!! Love it!! Just make sure not to slam your cords together on that exercise! Can't wait to hear you sing!
I love that you added the vocal fry in this video. That's a great way to access thin fold singing, and I had never even thought to use fry in that way. Can't wait to experiment. I've always used light resonant buzzing exercises, but the fry seems great.
THANK YOU for this! I'm a first soprano and I just got cast as Wednesday in The Addams Family so I need to learn to belt those high notes in Pulled without hurting myself! Slow the air flow, lots of support 👌
Yeah, your teaching is unique, and so well prepared, and easy to digest, and right to the core. You are so beautiful too inside and out.:) I am so glad to have found you.
These are great exercises but how do you put them all together into an actual belt? I always feel vocal exercises are like singing in a test tube. They are so important but then you need the next application step to translate these practices into an actual song. Do you have a video for that?
HI Mary! That's a great question! Whenever you explore a vocal exercise, you'll want to be completely present to the experience that the exercise is giving. Each exercise is able to isolate a very specific experience in your voice. If you find that an exercise gives you a sense of openness, flexibility, freedom, strength or presence within your sound, you'll want to teach your muscles to "remember" the sensation. When you go to apply the exercise to the song, you are going to recreate the sensation that the original exercise gives you. Think of it as "training wheels" for your voice. For example, if you like the "Ma Ma ma" exercise, you can remove the lyrics, while performing the melody on the "Ma Ma Ma" feeling. When you are able to anchor that experience, you can add the lyrics while maintaining the sensation of the "Ma Ma Ma" exercise. I hope this helps!
I'd love to hear examples of actual songs or parts of song that put these exercises into practice. I just happened onto your videos and am loving them one after another. Thanks for sharing your exercises and experiences. I too use similar methods of teaching.
I'm trying to sing the bit in the greatest show which is belting I thought you had to shout but it's not now I learnt it I get a solo and all the glory lol XD but still I do this practice every time before school
Iam watching many others belting lessons but finding only crying like technique, shouting like technique etc and i don't like it coz it strains my throat, and finally i got here and finding the right technique. Amazing lesson, your technique helps me 💯%, it doesn't strain my throat anymore....thank you...
LOLOLOL! That's ok! Give yourself total permission to get crazy as you play with your voice. It's not always going to sound "pretty." In fact, most of the time..it won't. But you'll have that access to sensations that you can build off of. I'm pretty sure my neighbors think I'm dying on a daily basis...but I just smile and wave as I'm out walking my dog.
+Madeleine Harvey lol yeah you are right thinking back I wouldn't be able to sing better than a few years back without all the weird voice experimentation i did. This is such a fun and useful video btw, great job!!
Can u explain? I feel like we should always have a bowl shape bc the soft pallette should be raised at all times. So what do you mean by changing to bowl shape when belting? What shape is it when not belting? Thanks
I think he means that you should not 'press' the notes cause when you press them, the throat closes and it's not good for the vocal chords (hurts most of the time). Don't know if that's what he meant, cause I'm a classical singer actually but I love musicals and pop songs too :) and I actually did that before and my throat hurt all the time after singing...
Hatch Man Do The only way I can explain it is you drop your jaw, open your soft pallet (you can feel your soft pallet in the back of your throat on the roof of your mouth, just feel like a squishy roof) and then you kinda let the sound shoot out of the roof of your mouth, but you don't push it out. just learn to use all of your diaphragm, and when you belt, it will literally feel like you're doing a sit up in your abdominal area. let go, and it will fly freely.
Ruhe1986 it's also about the shape of the throat wholly and the skull It determines how much resonance you can project It's more about the way we're born
By far the best tutorial on RUclips on accessing the power & projection of belting to our voice in the different registers in a practical way. My hat goes off to you. Thank you for your wisdom sensei.
i am a trained singer, recently went through some horrible health issues, this video changed it all in like 2 seconds.You are sooo intelligent. thank you! sometimes our mentality blocks us a lot
Great energy , instruction and inspiration. You are right on point. These techniques will allow me to avance to the next level for my vocals. Thank you so very much Madeleine.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS! I've had so much bittiness and your technique and teaching is starting to bring it all together. So excited by the noises I'm gonna make from now on. Heard and felt a difference immediately as well as a boost in confidence. Ever grateful! xxx
This is one of the most helpful belting vids I've watched! I'm classically trained and I have a fair amount of experience in show tune, I can even sing high and loud, but it just doesn't have enough "meat" to it sometimes for my personal preference. So thank you for making something that helps people like me!
Really helpful thinking of the belt going out of the ears. I've been told to push the sound forward before - which made me constrict a lot. Then was taught to push the sound backwards, which makes me break a lot. But I like this visual! Thank you!
This is so helpful!! I've always had a really quiet voice when it comes to singing (probably due to my own vocal insecurities), but I'm auditioning for a couple parts in my showchoir soon that require the ability to belt, and this video is already making such a big difference for me!
You are just awesome. Love your tips. I've learned all the steps you mentioned over the years but oddly never understood them in the context of belting. Thanks!
Many many thanks! The "mum" exercise helped tremendously where I'd hit a roadblock in my singing. I've watched tons of videos and nobody has mentioned this method, thank you for demonstrating, you rock!
It definitely helps. I have to have this video bookmarked to come back to when I feel like I'm losing it. Lol this is perfect! You're great! Hope to take vocal lessons soon!
I was always taught to sing from the diaphragm. And you will feel it sometimes too! It's the only way to bring a full sound without singing from your throat. As long as I do that I don't feel like I'm singing just from my throat. This really helps a lot. I'm trying to bring back my lung capacity since I have asthma and I'm 53. But I don't want to damage my voice doing it.
I just discovered your channel and I love it! I had to quit my vocal lessons after 5 years and now I searched for some good warm ups on youtube! glad I found you :)
Madeleine, You have really great clarity in your communication and you are an awesome vocal coach. I want to utilize your techniques to improve my mask. I started singing in my church choir with more classical styles and really need tips on getting in touch with my nasopharynx. Thank You Jan
Hi Medeline my name is IDIT , and I'm a voice teacher from Israel Enjoyed your lesson so much. i teach that tecniqe for acouple of years just use deferent terms. thank you so much
Beside stating the obvious about you being a good teacher I should also like to say that you are highly interesting to watch. I have watch this video many time just to see and hear you do your things.Thank you Madeleine for being so wonderful and putting your videos here. Wish I was nearby.
Oh, if you are interested in taking voice lessons, you don't need to be local. I offer Skype lessons on my website. For more details, check out madeleineharvey.com
+Rex Torres LOL!!!! OH NO!!! well, assuming that no babies were actually harmed during the course of your practice...what I like to do is retreat to a place where no one can hear me. That way, my focus is more on the fullness of the experience rather than wondering how other people are responding. If you live in an apartment with other people, is there a time when no one is home to actually hear you go for the crazy baby sound. Good luck!
Madeleine Harvey Wow! thanks for your reply! I wasn't expecting that... anyways... timing is a problem for me because my housemates and I go to work and come home roughly at the same time. and I'm not the greatest singer in the world, so it's a little embarrassing for me to practice knowing that they'll hear me wailing. :p anyways... I still enjoy your videos and tips. thanks for those!
This is the BEST vocal lesson ever, or anywhere! I’m so sold. Finally what I’ve been looking for. Looking forward to practicing with this all week and see what happens in a week. Just following along opened my voice and range instantly!!! Freakin love this video - can u tell? Haha
You're so awesome!! And I'm glad I came across this channel. I miss taking vocal lessons (being in choir and whatnot) because I miss the one of one with teachers and learning new things. This was very informative and very fun! Thanks! :)
Thank you so much, you are awesome! I like your way of teaching, it's so easy to understand, and it has resolved my problems that I've been thinking so hard and so long !
very clarifying and helpful!! thank you very much for the video. love your channel, by the way. i've been belting (well, more or less, most of the time i was squeezing my muscles and screaming notes, actually. sometimes my throat used to get hurt after singing and i just didn't know what to do about it) for 2 years and i used to call it my "second voice" (because my chest voice is very heavy and i do not usually use it for speaking, only for screaming). as you can see, i had no idea what it was, and no singing teacher has ever told me about the belt. now everything makes sense, haha.
Very good lesson. I'd underline that underneath support is the first thing to do. Without it you may ruin the voice even only practicing with the voice. Get the support thing, and the go work with the voice

I feel ya friend...Vocal work is a strange thing to bear witness to. But just so you know...I don't judge you! Go for it!
I think my neighbours have gotten used to listen to me, making weird sounds, already hahahahahhaha
I just thought about this as I am at Rv park and thought I would try and then I start to think what the new neighbours will think😂😂😂
They don’t know anything...
🤣👏👏👏
“So don’t be afraid to scream or hoot or holler”
Me: *does exactly that*
My mom from the other room: SHUT UP!!
Me:......ok.
Suga N Spice you’re the vine

2) Bouncing the sound (Hey!) 5:58
3) Adding pharyngeal (baby cry) 9:28 where nose meets throat
4) Engage the cord, sound one (mum, mum) 11:55
Adding inner edges of chord, sound two (vocal fry) 14:30
your way of teaching is so unique and its been helping me so so much!!!! LOVE IT
Thank you so much!! I'm so glad you thought it was helpful! I'll be looking forward to hearing you show off your skills! ; ) Happy Belting!
Practice this at night in my room. My parents must be confuse why suddenly I practice singing 😅
I had to look because seeing the 99 likes bothered me. Lol
I just practised and then realized that I can reach belting without difficulties.
Thanks to you Madeleine and greetings from France !
I've been having problems with tension in my throat while belting high for my whole life. In between this video and your other videos I've discovered another spot that resonates in the higher frequencies with less tension. Now all I have to do is unlearn a life time of squeezing to get high.
My dad was just like “Hey, are you okay?” 😂😂😂
The only thing missing is you belting to see the principles applied
Exactly. How does it sound in the end?
AnaMaria Orozco yes I was really anticipating that as well. But good lesson and well-explained.
AnaMaria Orozco I agree!
One hundred percent agree. I wanted to see the same thing.
Tru dattttt. And i wanna hear her beautiful voice too
My voice is super soft and it makes it so hard for me to sing powerfully :( Help haha
Shannon same with me, and. i think im also a contralto
Shannon Yes! I have the same problem
Hey I felt like that for sooo long and I just kept practising and practising and my voice got soo much stronger! Just keep singing, keep practising
Shannon me tooo sigh
Lol well my voice is loud and powerful but totally out of control 😂😂 so I sound like a very aggressive seal
It has been the best belting explanation video I’ve seen. Thank you so much.
Well damn how do I not sound Jamaican if I'm already Jamaican?
+Gisy Boo No! No! You OWN that Jamaican glory!!! Love it!! Just make sure not to slam your cords together on that exercise! Can't wait to hear you sing!
🤣🤣🤣
LMAO
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
💀💀 im sleep
Thank GOD! Someone has the ability to transfer knowledge in a very practical way.
I love that you added the vocal fry in this video. That's a great way to access thin fold singing, and I had never even thought to use fry in that way. Can't wait to experiment. I've always used light resonant buzzing exercises, but the fry seems great.
This is by far the best explanation of how belting is ‘assembled’ together!! The technique works!
Thank you so much Ritayung!
your teaching worth thousands $$$$
John Churilla see my clip
THANK YOU for this! I'm a first soprano and I just got cast as Wednesday in The Addams Family so I need to learn to belt those high notes in Pulled without hurting myself! Slow the air flow, lots of support 👌
I'm going to audition for Wednesday!!! do you have any tips?
Yeah, your teaching is unique, and so well prepared, and easy to digest, and right to the core. You are so beautiful too inside and out.:) I am so glad to have found you.

Am also questioning my self
because I'm from Venezuela and continues to place the written classes so I can translate and understand your great lessons I congratulate you
+AMBAR ¡Gracias! Realmente lo aprecio.
This is like the best singing channel ever!
I'd love to hear examples of actual songs or parts of song that put these exercises into practice. I just happened onto your videos and am loving them one after another. Thanks for sharing your exercises and experiences. I too use similar methods of teaching.
Literally Emma Pillsbury haha
Total Compliment!! Thank you so much!
Audrey Smith Omg now I'm noticing lol
YES
Audrey Smith once a gleek always a gleek
I've been singing for years and I've always struggled to find belting excercises. Thank you so much for making this video. #subscribed
welcome to my musical family!!! I'm so glad you're here! If there's anything you want to learn, let me know!
+Madeleine Harvey Yes! I've been trying to improve my control and breathing any suggestions?
This has changed my life. I sound amazing. Thank you!
i hope this can really help i wanted to sing a song with high notes but i just torture the song ahahah
omg same hahaha
I'm trying to sing the bit in the greatest show which is belting I thought you had to shout but it's not now I learnt it I get a solo and all the glory lol XD but still I do this practice every time before school

I have been singing for over 10 years. There is a free professional class available here.
Thank you, Madeleine!
You remind me so much of Emma Stone. And I think she's awesome :)
+Jaden Lukash That's just about the COOLEST compliment! Thanks friend!
I was going to say the same
Jaden Lukash omg, now she looked so familiar 😂
Lmao if i do that last exercise my neighbors are going to think I'm dying
LOLOLOL! That's ok! Give yourself total permission to get crazy as you play with your voice. It's not always going to sound "pretty." In fact, most of the time..it won't. But you'll have that access to sensations that you can build off of. I'm pretty sure my neighbors think I'm dying on a daily basis...but I just smile and wave as I'm out walking my dog.
+Madeleine Harvey lol yeah you are right thinking back I wouldn't be able to sing better than a few years back without all the weird voice experimentation i did. This is such a fun and useful video btw, great job!!
Mel Torres I thought the same😂
Lol 😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣
Love this channel you're a really good teacher! New subbie!!💕💕
Welcome to my musical family!!! So happy to have you here!!
Wow!! The vocal fry at the end is amazing!! That allows you to avoid that heaviness!! Awesome! Can't wait to try it out tomorrow after some practice!!
This video is perfect. There were no cut anywhere and yet it was so clear. Amazing teaching : )
Thank you for your helpful lesson's!! from. Philippines😘
Hugs from the States! Thank you so much !
a lot of belting volume comes from the shape of the back of the throat. you turn it almost into a bowl shape.
Can u explain? I feel like we should always have a bowl shape bc the soft pallette should be raised at all times. So what do you mean by changing to bowl shape when belting? What shape is it when not belting? Thanks
I think he means that you should not 'press' the notes cause when you press them, the throat closes and it's not good for the vocal chords (hurts most of the time).

Dylan is correct. Never push your chords, push through your chest and push/project off of the roof of the mouth
Ruhe1986 it's also about the shape of the throat wholly and the skull
It determines how much resonance you can project
It's more about the way we're born
This is the BEST instruction I've ever experienced for belting and for all of her other videos.
By far the best tutorial on RUclips on accessing the power & projection of belting to our voice in the different registers in a practical way. My hat goes off to you. Thank you for your wisdom sensei.
Thank you so much! I'm super glad you enjoyed the video! Happy Belting Mental kun!
note to self:
exercise 1: 3:34
exercise 2: 6:44
exercise 3: 9:37
exercise 4: 12:55
This was sooooo helpful, thank u!☺️
i am a trained singer, recently went through some horrible health issues, this video changed it all in like 2 seconds.You are sooo intelligent.
thank you! sometimes our mentality blocks us a lot
Really good tips for feeling where that belt should be! I am a voice teacher and love to hear other teachers' secrets!
Welcome fellow vocal pedagogist! Always happy to explore new thoughts and techniques together!
Great energy , instruction and inspiration. You are right on point. These techniques will allow me to avance to the next level for my vocals. Thank you so very much Madeleine.
Best lesson on wholesome perspective of achieving the vocal range from chest to head voice. Great work!
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS! I've had so much bittiness and your technique and teaching is starting to bring it all together. So excited by the noises I'm gonna make from now on. Heard and felt a difference immediately as well as a boost in confidence. Ever grateful! xxx
when i sing i sound like a guy with a deepvoice but at the sametime like a dying pigeon
I suffered from whooping cough in high school years, your videos have helped me so much they really are an awesome vocal workout. :)
This is one of the most helpful belting vids I've watched! I'm classically trained and I have a fair amount of experience in show tune, I can even sing high and loud, but it just doesn't have enough "meat" to it sometimes for my personal preference. So thank you for making something that helps people like me!
You explain things SO WELL!!! Thank you so much!!
Really helpful thinking of the belt going out of the ears. I've been told to push the sound forward before - which made me constrict a lot. Then was taught to push the sound backwards, which makes me break a lot. But I like this visual! Thank you!
This is so helpful!! I've always had a really quiet voice when it comes to singing (probably due to my own vocal insecurities), but I'm auditioning for a couple parts in my showchoir soon that require the ability to belt, and this video is already making such a big difference for me!
When she said ''MA! MA! MA! MA! I was hollering with laughter! lol!
You are just awesome. Love your tips. I've learned all the steps you mentioned over the years but oddly never understood them in the context of belting. Thanks!
Many many thanks! The "mum" exercise helped tremendously where I'd hit a roadblock in my singing. I've watched tons of videos and nobody has mentioned this method, thank you for demonstrating, you rock!
That's the best belting explanation I ever saw and I've been looking a lot!
Best belting video I've seen. So helpful! Thank you Madeleine.
She has that natural beauty 😍
WOW! I'm blushing! Thank you so much Lamb!
Yeah buddy...thats what a woman is, "a natural beauty"
LAMB!!!!!
Diol alain definitely a virgo
Diol omg yeah she does seem like a virgo! also i agree with the first commenter she’s so naturally pretty
It definitely helps. I have to have this video bookmarked to come back to when I feel like I'm losing it. Lol this is perfect! You're great! Hope to take vocal lessons soon!

Hi Medeline my name is IDIT , and I'm a voice teacher from Israel
Enjoyed your lesson so much. i teach that tecniqe for acouple of years just use deferent terms. thank you so much
I just discovered your channel, Madeleine - thank you, these exercises are helping me expand my vocal range and fix vocal fatigue.
Beside stating the obvious about you being a good teacher I should also like to say that you are highly interesting to watch. I have watch this video many time just to see and hear you do your things.Thank you Madeleine for being so wonderful and putting your videos here. Wish I was nearby.
+Gregory Sarma That's super sweet! Thank you so much for watching! Glad you're enjoying the lessons.
Oh, if you are interested in taking voice lessons, you don't need to be local. I offer Skype lessons on my website. For more details, check out madeleineharvey.com
+Madeleine Harvey Indeed I am.
She’s like naturally pretty omg
I just got home from the police station. I was suspected of beating up a baby.
seriously, though... I really wanna follow all these lessons, but, I live with other people in an apartment.
+Rex Torres LOL!!!! OH NO!!! well, assuming that no babies were actually harmed during the course of your practice...what I like to do is retreat to a place where no one can hear me.

This is the BEST vocal lesson ever, or anywhere! I’m so sold. Finally what I’ve been looking for. Looking forward to practicing with this all week and see what happens in a week. Just following along opened my voice and range instantly!!! Freakin love this video - can u tell? Haha
Wow wow wow I become a best singer hey!
You are amazing :) explain the belting voice that the person dont hurt yourself and simple ... Fantastic
You're so awesome!! And I'm glad I came across this channel. I miss taking vocal lessons (being in choir and whatnot) because I miss the one of one with teachers and learning new things. This was very informative and very fun! Thanks! :)
Il commento italiano che cercavi 😃

+Stogrum Schnogrum You got it friend!!!! Big hugs!
Thank you Madeleine. This is very clear and I am going to practice it faithfully.
best. teaching video on youtube. ever. my actual vocal teacher is breaking my confidence and youre just like... wow. supporting?
OH NO! Really? Well I'm glad you're here! And I'm happy that you're feeling your confidence growing. Stay awesome friend!
very clarifying and helpful!! thank you very much for the video. love your channel, by the way.
i've been belting (well, more or less, most of the time i was squeezing my muscles and screaming notes, actually. sometimes my throat used to get hurt after singing and i just didn't know what to do about it) for 2 years and i used to call it my "second voice" (because my chest voice is very heavy and i do not usually use it for speaking, only for screaming). as you can see, i had no idea what it was, and no singing teacher has ever told me about the belt. now everything makes sense, haha.
I reallllly wish you could've belted to show us what it should sound like :(
Very good lesson. I'd underline that underneath support is the first thing to do. Without it you may ruin the voice even only practicing with the voice. Get the support thing, and the go work with the voice
then*
You make me laugh in a good way! You bring me joy!
Wow. Very informative and I love your energy. I have sang since I was a baby and this will help me keep from damaging my vocal cords.
