Actually almost everyone who shouted at anyone might have screamed C5. But when you ask them to do it on purpose they usually fail, or they might be able to scream it, but not in a dark, jim morison manner. but it's harder to make them scream A4-Asharp4, cause the pitch perception tells our brain not to go into falsetto, make it bigger so we can sound normal and we grab. They don't know, that you can't make it sound big, if you don't adjust resonating chambers. A4-Asharp4 is the hardest part of the voice. At least for me, as I always want to make it sound as my G4, but then I cant sing Us and Ees. Being obsessed with tone and inner feelings really distract.
It is not falsetto, but head voice, or at best head dominant mix. Try to sing with chest dominant mix. I dont agree that anyone can shout a high C. It takes technique to reach it, even though it sounds "shouty".
I've been learning to sing for a year, and with your exercise I can tell I'm finally "grabbing" the high-C and above notes. Great going back to the basics with you and doing and learning your exercises. Thanks.
+HumbleTrader001 The language is, unfortunately, very poor in the singing community. You're essentially saying the same thing. If I sing in non-breathy falsetto and it sounds like it connects into my full voice, some people call it "full voice"; However, it's STILL falsetto. It's really confusing. But if you just THINK about it, it's obvious! Before you started training and learning all of these confusing terms you just had "chest voice" and you had "falsetto." All this guy is doing, in my opinion, is connecting the two voices.
+You Can Sing ANYTHING! Ok, thanks for the explanation. That clears things up in that we agree he is singing in a connected voice. My own problem is that my non-breathy version of falsetto only normally goes up to a G or G# above middle C these days. Not sure what I can do to get it to all the way up to a high C without it getting too much like the hooty./breathy disconnected type of falsetto.
+HumbleTrader001 Oh and check out Brett manning's video about connecting into whistle voice. You have to release your head voice into whistle voice as you go higher or you just sound like a dying owl. Hope that helps!
@Roman Kyrylyuk Yes with time and work you can open up your head voice to sing higher much more easily, most men sing through high C pretty easily in fact. When I started singing I was labelled a baritone could get much above middle C without massive amounts of strain, now I'm a tenor.
Mr.Wehden, I am an opera enthusiest but i would like to learn how to sing properly. i have a good range and i know i can sing in the more contemporary styles. I also had a lot of training for Choral and Stage Drama singing from my youth. However i want to sing in the operatic style and i believe i am a high Baritone, low tenor. It is only the very highest Tenor notes that i cannot sing without breaking into falsetto which of course makes my notes this and weak. i want to learn how to sing these notes with full voice and with power. Lower notes are not as challenging but a few steps below middle c and i begin to lose a measure of control over my vibrato and i begin flattening out. What do you recommend? And any ideas on where to find a quality operatic voice coach? please, any help would be greatly appreciated. Blessings!!!
Also i would like to add that i literally can "feel" that the voice can go to the ranges i want to sing in. I know these are attainable goals with work, but i need guidance and direction.
If the sound is balanced you shouldn't really feel any great need to break into falsetto at the top. Without hearing you though it's hard to know, feel free to email me some examples carlwehden@gmail.com In regards to a good classical coach I don't have enough experience with any to say.
I'm not trained in music, so I had to look up what a "high c" sounds like. Apparently, historians believe most pirate chanteys were meant to be sung in a high c.
@@vegeta1885 That's how it was written in the articles. Like I said, I'm not trained in music and know virtually nothing about notes and keys. I just know that lots of people online went bonkers about it a while back because it meant pirates and sailors probably sounded the opposite of how they are portrayed in movies.
Woah! Thank you for this! Even just the weird wuh wuh sound helped me establish proper compression and placement through the passagio! This baritone is very grateful for his new found C5. :D
Same here - I can get there with the 'wuh wuh' sound, but I havent' developed proper compression and cord-closure for it to sound full (yet!). When I open it up to a 'go' type vocalisation, is sounds breathy and heady at the moment.
Two ways to do it. Most common is throat lock like what tenors does. Another way just medium belch, accompanied by vocal cord stretch, mouth wide open. High C is just a note higher than the highest note on famous Journey song "open arms". If you can sing open arms you are only a note away from High C.
Thanks for the video, mate! Your tips are really helpful. I'm a classical singing student and sometimes I do forget that to reach power way up there we have to start small and gradually add weight to the tone and that obsviously leads to straining and "widening" of the voice. I'll definitely add your exercises to my vocal experiments. Cheers and keep up the good work!
this is an old video, I've moved forwards a lot since this time. In fact this year is the first time I really knew my voice inside out everything that came before this year wasn't really complete.
Yeah, you progressed a lot! That time I thought it was falsetto, but if you had put consonant in that note, that would sound differently to me! Right now, as I got up there, I understand whats happening. And there is no mike, that really changes everything!
I really appreciate your ability to communicate these elusive and complex processes and feelings in a way that actually makes sense. I have listened to a number of teachers on RUclips who have tried to analyze and communicate this complex material but none who have been as easy to follow as you. Having grown up in England and hitched down to Cornwall dozens of times in my youth I particularly enjoyed your reference to sitting in the car waiting for your passengers to emerge from their stag night and experimenting with weird noises…..
The Goog goog sound...in time will streghnten your head voice... The second step is to add support fron your diaphragm... The third is to Add Impostacione...this means to make The greatest space you can within your mouth
hi man very good tips and help...I'd like just to add..what helps me to hit high notes..before singing making similar exercises..and try the highest notes with progress from the low to the high..until i feel comfortable. without strethcing the chords..if a note sounds even a little bad go to the previous notes and start again and always without feeling pressure in the neck and its muscles..at some point you start realizing that voice floats in the mouth and you hit the high notes like b4, c5, c#5..also I recommend not having a recent dinner before singing.. a good idea is to keep your vocal folds power and healthy drinking water all the day and have a smoothie of green vegetables helps me feel comfortable with my vocal folds to the highest areas and sing many songs without feeling tired. All these antioxidants..helps your voice chords..to feel relaxed ..give it a try with all the warm up.
I noticed that you've made no mention of using diaphragm support to minimize tension in the throat. It is by far the most important attribute a singer can have, you should stress it's importance in future videos to stop people from ruining their voices
+Sam Greenrod Yes! That is the missing ingredient. Big, powerful, full voice notes are one-register notes (not chest, not head) one voice, with strong dynamic opposition of the diaphragm. You have to develop the muscles that control exhalation and learn to manage greater pressure.
+Sam Greenrod Personally I've never focused on this much and my voice has gone from strength to strength by just following Singing Success's ideas and methods.
+Carl Wehden You sing great Carl, no question, but if you ever wanted to do justice to tunes from the Early Motown groups like The Four Tops, or let's say Toto or Survivor type of singing, you have to have really good diaphragmatic support.
The Royal Potato Yeeter bruuu be proud of that no shade but most guys wish they can sing higher 💙 I’m also a singer who can I guess sing pretty high lol.
Timliu92 yes, I don't really think in those terms though, in my head everything sits in the same place, find the correct position and add some closure / balance with air flow
Idk what the highest note I can do is, but it's not high. It's frustrating, because the male who I loved most as a child was cory monteiths voice, and its not dramatically high, but I can't get near it. Even my head voice is impeccably bad, it just disappears when I go too high (which is not high at all)
Don't give up. Focus on breath support. I used to be like you but I practiced for a year and I can sing up to g4 without trying. It's all in breath support, don't strain.
I notice that you have not mentioned the importance of using diaphragm support when singing such high notes. A singer will crack unless they strain horribly without the support, so to protect peoples voices, you must stress its importance. I'm surprised you left it out considering it is by far the most important part of a singers technique
God Sloth I come at things from an SLS perspective, coordination of the vocal cords comes first, combined with the right amount of air and you're golden!
Carl Wehden However all of the tension that will be building up through practicing and tightening the vocal cords when you sing high will remain in the vocal cords. You referred to hitting the high note like Pavarotti but without sounding like him. He sure did use diaphragm support!
God Sloth I sing pop music, my goal isn't to sound like Pavarotti, though even in the classical field show me a singer that does? he was the greatest singer of the 20th century :-)
Carl Wehden You wont necessarily sound like any opera singer just by using diaphragm support, however it will allow you to sing safely for a very long time. I think Pavarotti had the best technique although I prefer Corelli or Carreras in terms of sound :)
domnic0 i don't know if this is real or it can help but i read some comments on other videos is that you need to lower your larynx when going high also i think you need to practice on your passagio
domnic0 well there's a low of video in YT that may help you about the passagio and i think about the head voice it was a chest mixed with a bit of falsetto
domnic0 i can change my speaking voice however i like from high(higher than carl's) and low (like a basitone or bass-baritone specially when you're newly awake) but i'm not a good singer 😢 also remember that some famous tenor used to be a baritone in their early career so you just need some training and dedication and you can do it
Late again. But i get strain on my headvoice. Sounds just like you but i feel a pull my voice at the high see. I try being narrow. I tried all kinds of different ways of doing it. My mix is piercing. its way to sharp. The sound is more less in my head and you cant hear it but it sounds wayyyyyyy to nay like. Like my cords are breaking. idk how to describe it. But it sounds to me this is a roadblock.
I like your teaching . I’m finding higher notes easier and my long lost falsetto seems to be returning. I’m quite excited as I’ve been only able to produce a squeak in falsetto for over 4 years. I’m getting ready now and ask how I can be sure I’m in head voice and not falsetto doing this say this exercise. Thanks
Hey Carl, I have been following your techniques and I believe that I am able to smoothly enter my mixed voice without breaking, but it still sounds very breathy, heady and sometimes like a falsetto. Even in the GOOG exercise, it does sound like head voice when go up in my range. How can I make it sound like my chest voice? Please guide.
+Tanay Mimani as you get better muscle separation you are able to stay connected to chest and still thin out the vocal cords into head voice, this takes time and hard work but is realistic for anyone, I recommend checking out Jessie Nemitz and Brett Mannings videos on the subject, best of luck.
+Ирруматор 666 Generally it should be left alone to do it's job, it will move depending on what is required for the chosen vowel, brighter vowels lower the soft palette sending more sound into the pharynx cavity, darker ones it will raise it directing more sound out of the mouth, a singer needs to be comfortable on any vowel through the bridge so really just let it do it's job.
dude you are singing in falsetto, anyone can sing high C and even high G above middle C in falsetto, try and sing it with full voice without strain, like classical singers do it for example or like Mercury did it.
+zura iashvili My idea is to find it easy and then work on adding closure and weight gradually from the right foundation, best of luck with your singing.
+Carl Wehden Idea is correct. Singing with thin edge function is way to go, however you need to show end result as well which is floating half mixed tone. Everything you sing is pure falsetto and its not only you but 95% of youtube vocal lessons that teach how to sing high notes. Why don't you show what it should really sound like once you have learned how to lighten your tone, cause all i hear is just compressed falsetto voice. Maybe i just have not seen it, gimme link to the video where you sing high C in full voice. I dont mean to be rude or anything, i just want to know what your full voice sound like up there.
zura iashvili Just putting out the ideas that helped me to improve I'm not a finished product only been singing for about 8 years. You're welcome to make your own videos if you think your information is more useful x
+Carl Wehden I understand. I would not bother you but thing is that singing well is very difficult activity and its even harder to teach it and how does one teach something he himself has not mastered yet. Voice is a delicate thing or wrong and half informed advice can ruin it very quickly. In my humble opinion teaching voice should be left to those who have accomplished mastery and really understand mechanics of properly produced voice as well as science behind it, those. Those who not only hear difference but can also demonstrate.
+zura iashvili I respectfully disagree it's not a zero sum game, one takes baby steps to move forward. As long as I have improved I can help people who haven't yet started to learn. My tips are for people that are starting out there are teachers like Seth Riggs and Brett Manning for more experienced singers like yourself.
HI man! I have one question, my vocal range is about E2-G4, but that G4 is forced, some people saying that I am bass, what makes me sad, because I have friends and we want to create one band, and of course we will start with covers, I want do covers for bands like breaking benjamin, three days grace, also papa roach, we'll I can sing papa roach but I get tired fast. So my question is, If I can with time, expand my range to sing that bands?
+Roman Kyrylyuk True basses are very rare even rarer than baritones. Most bigger voices can still rock pretty high, see Chris Cornell / Jimmy Gnecco. However it takes a bit more finesse / time to get to easy high notes for most bigger voices.
The problem with this speech level technique is that the high C will never grow stronger then his gow, gow, gow,gow, vocalising. If you think that approuch is enough for you then follow his example. If not there are other teachers on youtube who can teach you.
That's not true at all, Pavarotti was not trained in SLS but he sung at speech level, was his high C powerful enough? Your understanding of the technique is not complete. I'm a learning singer and coach so these examples aren't the best, apologies x
Samuel Karlberg He sang at speech level, regardless of all other factors he used exclusively the correct muscles to sing with that's really all speech level refers to.
Samuel Karlberg you can, speech level singing isn't a technique it's a set of principles universal to all singers, efficient use of the correct muscles that's all it means.
There are some people who can't sing falsetto at all that they crack a lot but sings high chest voice with so much power and control. HOW is that possible? I'm only able to reach A4 my highest and after that i crack. I build so much tension in my throat and I don't know how to mix voice it. Am i supposed to sing with my nose or i have to block it?
You are right many people get one part of singing but not another. The best solution is to understand all parts of your voice then everything makes more sense. Unfortunately this takes time and work to do but the end result is worth it because your voice will make much more sense be much more consistent and have no tension at all.
Wait: that's a c5, while a high c is c6... I can resonantly, clearly vibrato c5 all day... but I'm training for a high c, which is a c6 (male, max is b5 at the moment, 1 below c6). Let's hear ya sing c6 now :) lol
Male.I can push myself to C#5 though it's loud it does not hurt.I have to push from abdomen from around F4.. How can I do it like i u?? Meaning softly and more easily... Will I ever be able to sing on those C5 notes ?? Sorry for my directness but I've been wanting to ask this for a long time so ??
nuanced compression skills will help a lot with these types of issues, will you ever sing how you want to? It took me 10 years to say 'yes I can now sing how I want to in most situations', it takes a lot of work and time to get good
yes vast majority of men will vocalize past high C with work, for many release takes time to develop the panic muscles want to kick in on 'high notes' and inhibit free vocalizing, this takes time to undo
@@aniketcomputertutorials9566 Woww thank you so much, it's always nice to see people willing to share their knowledge with others, and I really appreciate it :)
@@aniketcomputertutorials9566 im sorry to disagree, i can do yodeling (break transition between chest voice to head voice and vice versa) my voice from a High C#5 chest voice to a C#5 falsetto of course. This would be impossible to do if it were mix voice or head voice. I trained with a Korean teacher when i lived back in China, he was able to reach to G5 and at this note he kept it for 3 seconds then switching it to falsetto, then to mix to show me the difference of texture for all three, and this all happened because i told him same thing you just said. He proved me wrong, he said when he was younger he used to be able to go B#5 which was his max chest voice. I'm sure you know yodeling and the technique to release the TA muscles (thyroarytenoid muscles), i can do this easily with B5, and i can with C5 as well but i need warm up before i attempt this yodeling switch. I can go up to a D5 sometimes D#5, and my teacher is training me to go even higher. If you want proof of it i can make a video and i can do the yodeling transition and i can even make it slow. Please do not misguide people, you might be a vocal coach but you need to investigate a little more. Males can reach really high notes, and i swear i can prove it to you if you answer my comment. Have a good day.

Edwin myers said: "unfortunately knowing precisely how a flute works will not make you a virtuose player, nor will knowing how the voice works make you a great singer, this is the difference ." - This is... - mostly, not true. you won't be able to find any educated professional singer that doesnt know how the voice works anywhere, in fact i'd bet that even most professional amateurs knows the anatomy more or less in the detail too. I say this as an opera singer in education. Now this term virtuoso... This is a term that i'd urge you not to use as it doesn't really mean anything other than "this person is above average efficiency measured according to national average in age". In fact the term "Virtuoso" is so vague that it almost doesn't mean anything at all even in professional musical circles, - other that "yo this dude good yo" that is, people use it so liberally that it may mean anything from "good" to "godly gifted"(Which in 99,9999% 0f all cases just means started at age 3). Now: to adress the point; "do you need to know how your instrument works in order to become a really good musician": Yes. You do. End of.. The more you already know, the more you can learn. This being said 75% of what you learn on any given instrument should consist of practice, not theory, about 15% correction with a >>>(((I CANNOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH: PROFESSIONAL!!!)))
most great singers can't explain what they are doing very well so yeah there is that. I have the luck that I'm improving a lot at the moment and am also able to explain to people what I'm doing. This video is 3 years old I was a vastly less proficient singer 3 years ago so forgive my ignorance :) x
I am not really commenting on you at all good sir, i don't have any critique of you that i'd dare to claim valid enough to put to the internets eternal archives, and in fact some of your video's have helped me out quite alot even though not all may be enitirely accurate anatomically, they are most definitely very functional! Your approach is functional, non-damaging and efficient and that's what counts the way i percieve it. ;) - I only comment on the conversation between Tristan Paredes and Edwin Myers and some other folks because it is the first comment that shows up in the feed when i found this video.. And i personally believe that this - in my opinion quite strange - idea of one not necesarrily needing to know one's instrument in order to be proficient at it to do more harm than good.. So i try to "fight" it when i see it, i figured my comment would be seen by more people if i just left it as a stand alone comment, so that's why it's here and not in the thread. :) Heheh, b'cause, y'kno, it seemed a little bit like overkill to make a response to your video in order to address a single top comment. xD Oh and thanks for the response. :)
@@Ceenth Singing is mostly about feeling and figuring out your own system or vocal box. There were and are a lot of great singers who can't teach. Also voice critics who know every last bit of information on the voice, still can't sing great.
@@vegeta1885 No. Singing well is mostly about technique and concrete muscular and functional development through years of practice, not "feeling" the music, sorry, in fact feeling a piece is almost never something that's directly discussed when working with a piece of music, the character of the piece is discussed and the concrete lyrics and how to portray them, but almost never the "feeling", I and many others from my study have actually often been told to "feel less" when singing because nine times out of ten "feeling" a piece just means singing out of pitch or a faltering of formant or vocal clarity because of a lapse in technique. There really is no such thing as "figuring out one's own technique", there's the right way to do it and there's all the wrong ones, the fact that a given singer will have a choice between different sub-fach or even in some cases overall voice-categorisation doesn't mean the technique used to develop the specifics of that sound-ideal change, one's anatomy is fundamentally the same across our species even though the technique is used to develop different acoustic ideals for different roles and circumstances. By figuring out ones voice box i assume you mean estimated fach, or do you rather talk to the point of concrete anatomy? 🤔🤔🤔 - I believe i somewhat answered both points above but if i can come to understand what you mean i might address it a little more poignantly? :) True, there are many singers who can't teach, and we should keep in mind when discussing this that musical and didactical skills are different beasts, that being said; I will somewhat hesitate to call any singer that can't teach "great". - That's basically because if one can't formulate what one does then one cannot proberly address technical inefficiencies either, and that will eventually catch up to them even if an unbalanced technique currently sounds great on their instrument. This is not to speak ill against any singer in particular, it's just a matter of fact that I've never met nor heard of a truly great singer who cannot verbalize their proficiency to a point where they could theoretically teach it, neither can I imagine how that would work in practice. 🤔 Even though as mentioned didactical and musical skills are different beasts indeed. About the voice critics... Erhmm. Heh. 😅 Yea..... Erhmm. How do I put this... Some, if not "most" voice critics just don't really know what they're talking about, even though they may know the anatomy very well they often fail to take the specificities of a given singer into consideration... It's erhm. It's not to sound like a d*ck but thing is that there are details to certain fach ideals that isn't obvious even to a very expertly developed ear without having the technical ability to try out and differentiate the sounds, how does one for example differentiate a high countertenors upper extension from a young legierro tenor In trainings upper extreme range extension when both sing in fortissimo? - normally the formal answer would be something like "you can hear it in the formant" but that ain't really true either because a truly well supported falsetto can fairly easily sound more rounded and rich than a tenors catwails the first few years. :P To play a bit of devil's advocate in favor of the vocal critics though; One should realise that a vocal critics job only very rarely is to give critique directly to a singer, singers got coaches and other singers for that, vocal critics job more often than not is to communicate to "the ley-man" from an expert-listeners perspective why a given singer/performance is noteworthy or isn't and therefore why it's worth their time and money, strictly speaking they don't have to be great vocal technical geniuses at all, they have to be great at communicating musical experiences, which they often are. :)
Hello, Carl. I really tried lots and lots and lots and lots of different "methods" but all the time mixed voice becomes vocal fry or just splits appart on A4, but i can maitain the notes lower quite consistently (i am baritone by the way). Is this wuf woof, what helps to fix this issue? Other coaches say to kind of belt it with "twang" and keep it high and bright ;( What should i do? :(
to do it well you have to do it right, what will fix it will depend on what you're doing wrong. Email me some examples if you like dude, carlwehden@gmail.com
Hello, Carl! I sent the recording, hope you will answer :( By the way i really respect your effort and i believe that you should be more recognised, then vocal coaches who get audience by creating image of "sucessful vocal school". Keep helping us, you are a great person
It's not sexist women have shorter thinner cords than men so sing higher more easily, that's just biology. Female Tenors are rare most women are Soprano / Alto very few can sing in the tenor range with much presence.
Real professional singers should be able to hit the high C5 with their chest voice or even mix , the real thing is to be comfortable while your singing them all right . You talk about yelling but yelling is not singing bro . Note that high notes does not develop using yelling . It would cause you a habit in the future to sing every high notes in a yelling style . So i think this guy's not so professional .
"Most guys can yell one out" not true at all, most untrained men cannot yell past e4
I think for most blokes if they squeezed and pushed it would come, but you're right this is a guess I have no numbers to back up this claim.
Actually almost everyone who shouted at anyone might have screamed C5. But when you ask them to do it on purpose they usually fail, or they might be able to scream it, but not in a dark, jim morison manner. but it's harder to make them scream A4-Asharp4, cause the pitch perception tells our brain not to go into falsetto, make it bigger so we can sound normal and we grab. They don't know, that you can't make it sound big, if you don't adjust resonating chambers. A4-Asharp4 is the hardest part of the voice. At least for me, as I always want to make it sound as my G4, but then I cant sing Us and Ees. Being obsessed with tone and inner feelings really distract.
yeah but most can squiese 1 out by raising the laryx and tounge much.
2 years of singing and I cannot yell past a g4
Ахмет Хакимов
why the hell would anyone yell so high? it'd sound like a baby screaming
i can yell B4 but C5 is just sometimes
It is not falsetto, but head voice, or at best head dominant mix. Try to sing with chest dominant mix. I dont agree that anyone can shout a high C. It takes technique to reach it, even though it sounds "shouty".
I like the falsettio too
Gospel singers can shout high C's
All the great opera tenors have it very powerful

I've been learning to sing for a year, and with your exercise I can tell I'm finally "grabbing" the high-C and above notes. Great going back to the basics with you and doing and learning your exercises. Thanks.
Glad to help! Mastering the basics is the key to great singing, best of luck.
Nice falsetto
Isn't this a connected head voice rather than a disconnected falsetto??
+HumbleTrader001 The language is, unfortunately, very poor in the singing community. You're essentially saying the same thing.
If I sing in non-breathy falsetto and it sounds like it connects into my full voice, some people call it "full voice"; However, it's STILL falsetto.
It's really confusing. But if you just THINK about it, it's obvious! Before you started training and learning all of these confusing terms you just had "chest voice" and you had "falsetto." All this guy is doing, in my opinion, is connecting the two voices.
+You Can Sing ANYTHING! Ok, thanks for the explanation. That clears
things up in that we agree he is singing in a connected voice. My own
problem is that my non-breathy version of falsetto only normally goes up
to a G or G# above middle C these days. Not sure what I can do to get
it to all the way up to a high C without it getting too much like the
hooty./breathy disconnected type of falsetto.
+HumbleTrader001 His video has good information =). Just keep practicing!
+HumbleTrader001 Oh and check out Brett manning's video about connecting into whistle voice. You have to release your head voice into whistle voice as you go higher or you just sound like a dying owl.
Hope that helps!
@Roman Kyrylyuk Yes with time and work you can open up your head voice to sing higher much more easily, most men sing through high C pretty easily in fact. When I started singing I was labelled a baritone could get much above middle C without massive amounts of strain, now I'm a tenor.
Mr.Wehden,
I am an opera enthusiest but i would like to learn how to sing properly. i have a good range and i know i can sing in the more contemporary styles. I also had a lot of training for Choral and Stage Drama singing from my youth. However i want to sing in the operatic style and i believe i am a high Baritone, low tenor. It is only the very highest Tenor notes that i cannot sing without breaking into falsetto which of course makes my notes this and weak. i want to learn how to sing these notes with full voice and with power. Lower notes are not as challenging but a few steps below middle c and i begin to lose a measure of control over my vibrato and i begin flattening out.
What do you recommend? And any ideas on where to find a quality operatic voice coach? please, any help would be greatly appreciated. Blessings!!!
Also i would like to add that i literally can "feel" that the voice can go to the ranges i want to sing in. I know these are attainable goals with work, but i need guidance and direction.
If the sound is balanced you shouldn't really feel any great need to break into falsetto at the top. Without hearing you though it's hard to know, feel free to email me some examples carlwehden@gmail.com In regards to a good classical coach I don't have enough experience with any to say.

I just know that lots of people online went bonkers about it a while back because it meant pirates and sailors probably sounded the opposite of how they are portrayed in movies.
@@TheMorbidHobbiest There r a lot of silly articles link if you can find it
Woah! Thank you for this! Even just the weird wuh wuh sound helped me establish proper compression and placement through the passagio! This baritone is very grateful for his new found C5. :D
Same here - I can get there with the 'wuh wuh' sound, but I havent' developed proper compression and cord-closure for it to sound full (yet!).
When I open it up to a 'go' type vocalisation, is sounds breathy and heady at the moment.
@@buddhistsympathizer1136 now?
Two ways to do it. Most common is throat lock like what tenors does. Another way just medium belch, accompanied by vocal cord stretch, mouth wide open. High C is just a note higher than the highest note on famous Journey song "open arms". If you can sing open arms you are only a note away from High C.
Thanks for the video, mate! Your tips are really helpful. I'm a classical singing student and sometimes I do forget that to reach power way up there we have to start small and gradually add weight to the tone and that obsviously leads to straining and "widening" of the voice. I'll definitely add your exercises to my vocal experiments.
Cheers and keep up the good work!
Sweet mate, good luck!
wow thank you for your tips and exercises this will help me a lot and. Now I know that I'm doing high F note wrong the whole time...
No worries Nicole!
cool man, thanks
no worries mate
this is an old video, I've moved forwards a lot since this time. In fact this year is the first time I really knew my voice inside out everything that came before this year wasn't really complete.
yeah totally get ya man. My ideas are always taking on new twists as well, it's still feels helpful tho :)
Yeah, you progressed a lot! That time I thought it was falsetto, but if you had put consonant in that note, that would sound differently to me! Right now, as I got up there, I understand whats happening. And there is no mike, that really changes everything!
I really appreciate your ability to communicate these elusive and complex processes and feelings in a way that actually makes sense. I have listened to a number of teachers on RUclips who have tried to analyze and communicate this complex material but none who have been as easy to follow as you. Having grown up in England and hitched down to Cornwall dozens of times in my youth I particularly enjoyed your reference to sitting in the car waiting for your passengers to emerge from their stag night and experimenting with weird noises…..
The Goog goog sound...in time will streghnten your head voice...
The second step is to add support fron your diaphragm...
The third is to Add Impostacione...this means to make The greatest space you can within your mouth
I can yell as high as a Bb4.... so close to that C5 man however on a good day I can yell out a B4.
Well, I'm Countertenor, I don't need to yell and shout a Tenor C. I already have a light mixed tone.
Your so lucky...
But he struggle to hit an B2 which i speak with A2 so..
Hello! You have made me believe in myself in relation to singing high notes. Thank you so much!
He's explanation is good. People who don't get will never do it so they say it's falsetto.
Incredibly helpful and articulates difficult to grasp points clearly and concisely.
Surely one of the greatest yt teachers
hi man very good tips and help...I'd like just to add..what helps me to hit high notes..before singing making similar exercises..and try the highest notes with progress from the low to the high..until i feel comfortable. without strethcing the chords..if a note sounds even a little bad go to the previous notes and start again and always without feeling pressure in the neck and its muscles..at some point you start realizing that voice floats in the mouth and you hit the high notes like b4, c5, c#5..also
I recommend not having a recent dinner before singing.. a good idea is to keep your vocal folds power and healthy drinking water all the day and have a smoothie of green vegetables helps me feel comfortable with my vocal folds to the highest areas and sing many songs without feeling tired. All these antioxidants..helps your voice chords..to feel relaxed ..give it a try with all the warm up.
Thanks to this man I have only 1 more half step to reach my goal. High C ~!

Glad I found you again Carl dude!
Oh awesome tips.. first time I've found a good guy tell guys how to do it. You'll get me to Mariah in no time. lol
Thank you. Your C5 seems more brighter than mine. It seems mine comes mainly from chest voice.
+Eflat Productions That sounds good, there are many way to approach this problem no one answer is the right one for all people.
I noticed that you've made no mention of using diaphragm support to minimize tension in the throat. It is by far the most important attribute a singer can have, you should stress it's importance in future videos to stop people from ruining their voices
+Sam Greenrod Yes! That is the missing ingredient. Big, powerful, full voice notes are one-register notes (not chest, not head) one voice, with strong dynamic opposition of the diaphragm. You have to develop the muscles that control exhalation and learn to manage greater pressure.
+Sam Greenrod Personally I've never focused on this much and my voice has gone from strength to strength by just following Singing Success's ideas and methods.
+Carl Wehden You sing great Carl, no question, but if you ever wanted to do justice to tunes from the Early Motown groups like The Four Tops, or let's say Toto or Survivor type of singing, you have to have really good diaphragmatic support.
I can hit that note.I am even trying to become an operatic singer...
feel so nice...I'm want to sing D5 in Done for me
but how do I sing these notes without neighbor complaining...
I have a video request to you Carl!
Could you explain what "thinning out the voice" and what "to much weight" is about?
Will keep in mind for next video.
Carl Wehden link?
I can feel the freedom, it doesn't hurt, but I just can't sing it w/ full voice.
It's easy to do but can be tough to find, hit me with some mp3's if you like i'll have a listen, carlwehden@gmail.com
ummm is it normal to be able to sing till F6 from C2 for a male, I am scared of what monstrous power I may have unlocked
The Royal Potato Yeeter bruuu be proud of that no shade but most guys wish they can sing higher 💙 I’m also a singer who can I guess sing pretty high lol.
@@jojotheyuhh2848 Thanks bro
Thank you!
Awesome!
Your lessons are very helpful. Thanx!
no worries enjoy xx
I can't get past A4...
That was bloody fantastic...Thankyou..I have loads of video's to get through ...Speak to you soon...
nice one Tosh
Excellent video on the mixed voice Carl! Do you just go to falsetto prior to adding edge/closure to the cords?
Timliu92 yes, I don't really think in those terms though, in my head everything sits in the same place, find the correct position and add some closure / balance with air flow
unfortunately f#4 is hard for me but I think I'm using chest.
freedom before power is the golden rule.
Idk what the highest note I can do is, but it's not high. It's frustrating, because the male who I loved most as a child was cory monteiths voice, and its not dramatically high, but I can't get near it. Even my head voice is impeccably bad, it just disappears when I go too high (which is not high at all)
I'm your 900th subscriber
+Wheezy Orange Thanks! can't wait for 1000!
I strain at A3 and I have a high pitch talking voice for a man. I gave up. 😅
Don't give up. Focus on breath support. I used to be like you but I practiced for a year and I can sing up to g4 without trying. It's all in breath support, don't strain.
I notice that you have not mentioned the importance of using diaphragm support when singing such high notes. A singer will crack unless they strain horribly without the support, so to protect peoples voices, you must stress its importance. I'm surprised you left it out considering it is by far the most important part of a singers technique
God Sloth I come at things from an SLS perspective, coordination of the vocal cords comes first, combined with the right amount of air and you're golden!
Carl Wehden However all of the tension that will be building up through practicing and tightening the vocal cords when you sing high will remain in the vocal cords. You referred to hitting the high note like Pavarotti but without sounding like him. He sure did use diaphragm support!
God Sloth I sing pop music, my goal isn't to sound like Pavarotti, though even in the classical field show me a singer that does? he was the greatest singer of the 20th century :-)
Carl Wehden You wont necessarily sound like any opera singer just by using diaphragm support, however it will allow you to sing safely for a very long time. I think Pavarotti had the best technique although I prefer Corelli or Carreras in terms of sound :)
Andy's Mad House It was hinted at, but it should be stressed I feel. Lots of people might miss that.
Interesting, but for some people with sensitive ears it's hard to bear the constant smacking sounds every 5 or so seconds
The highest I can shout is F#4😂😂😂😂 why am I cursed
me too, but today i can hit a A4-B4 lol I was surprised.
domnic0 i don't know if this is real or it can help but i read some comments on other videos is that you need to lower your larynx when going high
also i think you need to practice on your passagio
domnic0 well there's a low of video in YT that may help you about the passagio
and i think about the head voice it was a chest mixed with a bit of falsetto
domnic0 well i'm just a 20yo guy who just recently fell in-love with classical music so i can't help you that much 😅
domnic0 i can change my speaking voice however i like from high(higher than carl's) and low (like a basitone or bass-baritone specially when you're newly awake)
but i'm not a good singer 😢
also remember that some famous tenor used to be a baritone in their early career so you just need some training and dedication and you can do it
Wee wee 😂😂😂
Late again. But i get strain on my headvoice. Sounds just like you but i feel a pull my voice at the high see. I try being narrow. I tried all kinds of different ways of doing it. My mix is piercing. its way to sharp. The sound is more less in my head and you cant hear it but it sounds wayyyyyyy to nay like. Like my cords are breaking. idk how to describe it. But it sounds to me this is a roadblock.
I own C#5 it so easy for me
awesome!
Carl John Franz do u use WhatsApp?
Thanks alot i am going to use this channel
yeah check out my new content it's getting better
Great lesson.......
I like your teaching . I’m finding higher notes easier and my long lost falsetto seems to be returning. I’m quite excited as I’ve been only able to produce a squeak in falsetto for over 4 years.
I’m getting ready now and ask how I can be sure I’m in head voice and not falsetto doing this say this exercise. Thanks
My mouse said the same thing recently
Hey Carl, I have been following your techniques and I believe that I am able to smoothly enter my mixed voice without breaking, but it still sounds very breathy, heady and sometimes like a falsetto. Even in the GOOG exercise, it does sound like head voice when go up in my range. How can I make it sound like my chest voice? Please guide.
+Tanay Mimani as you get better muscle separation you are able to stay connected to chest and still thin out the vocal cords into head voice, this takes time and hard work but is realistic for anyone, I recommend checking out Jessie Nemitz and Brett Mannings videos on the subject, best of luck.
This was a very good tutorial! Also, what's the highest note you can sing?
great stuff!
You are a good singer pure tone
cheers dude
Paul Stanley is good at it
Thank you. Look at my " 11 high C, karifrid".
Great video, Carl!
What can you tell about soft palate? Should it be raised, or not?
+Ирруматор 666 Generally it should be left alone to do it's job, it will move depending on what is required for the chosen vowel, brighter vowels lower the soft palette sending more sound into the pharynx cavity, darker ones it will raise it directing more sound out of the mouth, a singer needs to be comfortable on any vowel through the bridge so really just let it do it's job.
dude you are singing in falsetto, anyone can sing high C and even high G above middle C in falsetto, try and sing it with full voice without strain, like classical singers do it for example or like Mercury did it.
+zura iashvili My idea is to find it easy and then work on adding closure and weight gradually from the right foundation, best of luck with your singing.
+Carl Wehden Idea is correct. Singing with thin edge function is way to go, however you need to show end result as well which is floating half mixed tone. Everything you sing is pure falsetto and its not only you but 95% of youtube vocal lessons that teach how to sing high notes. Why don't you show what it should really sound like once you have learned how to lighten your tone, cause all i hear is just compressed falsetto voice. Maybe i just have not seen it, gimme link to the video where you sing high C in full voice. I dont mean to be rude or anything, i just want to know what your full voice sound like up there.
zura iashvili Just putting out the ideas that helped me to improve I'm not a finished product only been singing for about 8 years. You're welcome to make your own videos if you think your information is more useful x
+Carl Wehden I understand. I would not bother you but thing is that singing well is very difficult activity and its even harder to teach it and how does one teach something he himself has not mastered yet. Voice is a delicate thing or wrong and half informed advice can ruin it very quickly. In my humble opinion teaching voice should be left to those who have accomplished mastery and really understand mechanics of properly produced voice as well as science behind it, those. Those who not only hear difference but can also demonstrate.
+zura iashvili I respectfully disagree it's not a zero sum game, one takes baby steps to move forward. As long as I have improved I can help people who haven't yet started to learn. My tips are for people that are starting out there are teachers like Seth Riggs and Brett Manning for more experienced singers like yourself.
HI man! I have one question, my vocal range is about E2-G4, but that G4 is forced, some people saying that I am bass, what makes me sad, because I have friends and we want to create one band, and of course we will start with covers, I want do covers for bands like breaking benjamin, three days grace, also papa roach, we'll I can sing papa roach but I get tired fast. So my question is, If I can with time, expand my range to sing that bands?
+Roman Kyrylyuk True basses are very rare even rarer than baritones. Most bigger voices can still rock pretty high, see Chris Cornell / Jimmy Gnecco. However it takes a bit more finesse / time to get to easy high notes for most bigger voices.
LIKE THE INFO YOU SOUND LIKE YOU GET IT ROCK N ROLL
We all want to eventually get it together
What is the registered voice of Chester because I can scream like him but I'm not sure if I do the right tune of it....
Can a tenor be soft and low sounding as long as the pitch sounds high when it blends with a alto
While I was following the practice, the sudden alarm shocked me and I thought it was my doorbell that someone wants to shut me up.
ta ta tolly just nailed hi C
thats rely funkin hard anyou explianed it
I'm tryna reach Ariana's C#5 on her song called "everytime"
Everyone says I'm a bass-baritone but I can reach into C. What am I lol
Confused 😂
The problem with this speech level technique is that the high C will never grow stronger then his gow, gow, gow,gow, vocalising. If you think that approuch is enough for you then follow his example. If not there are other teachers on youtube who can teach you.
That's not true at all, Pavarotti was not trained in SLS but he sung at speech level, was his high C powerful enough? Your understanding of the technique is not complete. I'm a learning singer and coach so these examples aren't the best, apologies x
Pavarotti sang with a operatic technique using appoggio and open throat which aren´t included in speech level singing!
Samuel Karlberg He sang at speech level, regardless of all other factors he used exclusively the correct muscles to sing with that's really all speech level refers to.
You can´t take a singer who´s been famous and respected and make him a spokesperson for a technique which he never been in contact with:(
Samuel Karlberg you can, speech level singing isn't a technique it's a set of principles universal to all singers, efficient use of the correct muscles that's all it means.
I love it
It just IS!!! that's hard but once you get it, it will be with you forever. You'll taste it in your mind! Muscle Memory
There are some people who can't sing falsetto at all that they crack a lot but sings high chest voice with so much power and control. HOW is that possible? I'm only able to reach A4 my highest and after that i crack. I build so much tension in my throat and I don't know how to mix voice it. Am i supposed to sing with my nose or i have to block it?
You are right many people get one part of singing but not another. The best solution is to understand all parts of your voice then everything makes more sense. Unfortunately this takes time and work to do but the end result is worth it because your voice will make much more sense be much more consistent and have no tension at all.
Wait: that's a c5, while a high c is c6... I can resonantly, clearly vibrato c5 all day... but I'm training for a high c, which is a c6 (male, max is b5 at the moment, 1 below c6). Let's hear ya sing c6 now :) lol
But hes a super tenor
Is the high c the c5?
for men yes, women c6
If I scream my guts out I can reach an A4

moki damn great job
Male.I can push myself to C#5 though it's loud it does not hurt.I have to push from abdomen from around F4..
How can I do it like i u??
Meaning softly and more easily...
Will I ever be able to sing on those C5 notes ??
Sorry for my directness but I've been wanting to ask this for a long time so ??
nuanced compression skills will help a lot with these types of issues, will you ever sing how you want to? It took me 10 years to say 'yes I can now sing how I want to in most situations', it takes a lot of work and time to get good
Carl Wehden thank you and i'll be sure to suscribe...
I thought it was going to be C6 not a C5, uugghhh. I want to know the damn transition from a5 to c6 not a warm up lesson.
Hi Carl. If I can't reach High C even by yelling, can I ever achieve it?
yes vast majority of men will vocalize past high C with work, for many release takes time to develop the panic muscles want to kick in on 'high notes' and inhibit free vocalizing, this takes time to undo
My max chest voice is D5, sometimes even E5
Do you use chest voice or mixed voice to reach those notes ?
@@NoName-zj9jl it isn't possible in chest note for a male....its 100 percent mixed...and he is a tenor

@@aniketcomputertutorials9566 Woww thank you so much, it's always nice to see people willing to share their knowledge with others, and I really appreciate it :)
@@aniketcomputertutorials9566 im sorry to disagree, i can do yodeling (break transition between chest voice to head voice and vice versa) my voice from a High C#5 chest voice to a C#5 falsetto of course. This would be impossible to do if it were mix voice or head voice. I trained with a Korean teacher when i lived back in China, he was able to reach to G5 and at this note he kept it for 3 seconds then switching it to falsetto, then to mix to show me the difference of texture for all three, and this all happened because i told him same thing you just said. He proved me wrong, he said when he was younger he used to be able to go B#5 which was his max chest voice. I'm sure you know yodeling and the technique to release the TA muscles (thyroarytenoid muscles), i can do this easily with B5, and i can with C5 as well but i need warm up before i attempt this yodeling switch. I can go up to a D5 sometimes D#5, and my teacher is training me to go even higher. If you want proof of it i can make a video and i can do the yodeling transition and i can even make it slow. Please do not misguide people, you might be a vocal coach but you need to investigate a little more. Males can reach really high notes, and i swear i can prove it to you if you answer my comment. Have a good day.

Edwin myers said: "unfortunately knowing precisely how a flute works will not make you a virtuose player, nor will knowing how the voice works make you a great singer, this is the difference ." - This is... - mostly, not true. you won't be able to find any educated professional singer that doesnt know how the voice works anywhere, in fact i'd bet that even most professional amateurs knows the anatomy more or less in the detail too. I say this as an opera singer in education. Now this term virtuoso... This is a term that i'd urge you not to use as it doesn't really mean anything other than "this person is above average efficiency measured according to national average in age". In fact the term "Virtuoso" is so vague that it almost doesn't mean anything at all even in professional musical circles, - other that "yo this dude good yo" that is, people use it so liberally that it may mean anything from "good" to "godly gifted"(Which in 99,9999% 0f all cases just means started at age 3). Now: to adress the point; "do you need to know how your instrument works in order to become a really good musician": Yes. You do. End of.. The more you already know, the more you can learn. This being said 75% of what you learn on any given instrument should consist of practice, not theory, about 15% correction with a >>>(((I CANNOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH: PROFESSIONAL!!!)))
most great singers can't explain what they are doing very well so yeah there is that. I have the luck that I'm improving a lot at the moment and am also able to explain to people what I'm doing. This video is 3 years old I was a vastly less proficient singer 3 years ago so forgive my ignorance :) x
I am not really commenting on you at all good sir, i don't have any critique of you that i'd dare to claim valid enough to put to the internets eternal archives, and in fact some of your video's have helped me out quite alot even though not all may be enitirely accurate anatomically, they are most definitely very functional! Your approach is functional, non-damaging and efficient and that's what counts the way i percieve it. ;) - I only comment on the conversation between Tristan Paredes and Edwin Myers and some other folks because it is the first comment that shows up in the feed when i found this video.. And i personally believe that this - in my opinion quite strange - idea of one not necesarrily needing to know one's instrument in order to be proficient at it to do more harm than good.. So i try to "fight" it when i see it, i figured my comment would be seen by more people if i just left it as a stand alone comment, so that's why it's here and not in the thread. :) Heheh, b'cause, y'kno, it seemed a little bit like overkill to make a response to your video in order to address a single top comment. xD Oh and thanks for the response. :)
@@Ceenth Singing is mostly about feeling and figuring out your own system or vocal box. There were and are a lot of great singers who can't teach. Also voice critics who know every last bit of information on the voice, still can't sing great.
@@vegeta1885 No. Singing well is mostly about technique and concrete muscular and functional development through years of practice, not "feeling" the music, sorry, in fact feeling a piece is almost never something that's directly discussed when working with a piece of music, the character of the piece is discussed and the concrete lyrics and how to portray them, but almost never the "feeling", I and many others from my study have actually often been told to "feel less" when singing because nine times out of ten "feeling" a piece just means singing out of pitch or a faltering of formant or vocal clarity because of a lapse in technique. There really is no such thing as "figuring out one's own technique", there's the right way to do it and there's all the wrong ones, the fact that a given singer will have a choice between different sub-fach or even in some cases overall voice-categorisation doesn't mean the technique used to develop the specifics of that sound-ideal change, one's anatomy is fundamentally the same across our species even though the technique is used to develop different acoustic ideals for different roles and circumstances. By figuring out ones voice box i assume you mean estimated fach, or do you rather talk to the point of concrete anatomy? 🤔🤔🤔 - I believe i somewhat answered both points above but if i can come to understand what you mean i might address it a little more poignantly? :)
True, there are many singers who can't teach, and we should keep in mind when discussing this that musical and didactical skills are different beasts, that being said; I will somewhat hesitate to call any singer that can't teach "great". - That's basically because if one can't formulate what one does then one cannot proberly address technical inefficiencies either, and that will eventually catch up to them even if an unbalanced technique currently sounds great on their instrument. This is not to speak ill against any singer in particular, it's just a matter of fact that I've never met nor heard of a truly great singer who cannot verbalize their proficiency to a point where they could theoretically teach it, neither can I imagine how that would work in practice. 🤔 Even though as mentioned didactical and musical skills are different beasts indeed.
About the voice critics... Erhmm. Heh. 😅 Yea..... Erhmm. How do I put this... Some, if not "most" voice critics just don't really know what they're talking about, even though they may know the anatomy very well they often fail to take the specificities of a given singer into consideration... It's erhm. It's not to sound like a d*ck but thing is that there are details to certain fach ideals that isn't obvious even to a very expertly developed ear without having the technical ability to try out and differentiate the sounds, how does one for example differentiate a high countertenors upper extension from a young legierro tenor In trainings upper extreme range extension when both sing in fortissimo? - normally the formal answer would be something like "you can hear it in the formant" but that ain't really true either because a truly well supported falsetto can fairly easily sound more rounded and rich than a tenors catwails the first few years. :P To play a bit of devil's advocate in favor of the vocal critics though; One should realise that a vocal critics job only very rarely is to give critique directly to a singer, singers got coaches and other singers for that, vocal critics job more often than not is to communicate to "the ley-man" from an expert-listeners perspective why a given singer/performance is noteworthy or isn't and therefore why it's worth their time and money, strictly speaking they don't have to be great vocal technical geniuses at all, they have to be great at communicating musical experiences, which they often are. :)

Hello, Carl.
I really tried lots and lots and lots and lots of different "methods" but all the time mixed voice becomes vocal fry or just splits appart on A4, but i can maitain the notes lower quite consistently (i am baritone by the way).

You're a badAss
that is so sexes girls can be altos or evan tenners uts not just a guy thing im a girl and i can sing the 3 lowest tenner note
It's not sexist women have shorter thinner cords than men so sing higher more easily, that's just biology. Female Tenors are rare most women are Soprano / Alto very few can sing in the tenor range with much presence.
You are a sexy handsome man that looks like James Franco😍
Ah just wanna comment that the C you did was a C5 not a high C. High C is C6... Oh and I used a tuner to double confirm
This suck
Real professional singers should be able to hit the high C5 with their chest voice or even mix , the real thing is to be comfortable while your singing them all right . You talk about yelling but yelling is not singing bro . Note that high notes does not develop using yelling . It would cause you a habit in the future to sing every high notes in a yelling style . So i think this guy's not so professional .
