Oh my!!! All my life has been a lie. Thank you so much for breaking this misconception. Now I already know why I can't sing and always tend to tense is that I over raised my soft palate. Super Thank you!
This is what I've spent years looking for. *So* many "voice teachers" online give vague, convoluted explanations for things you need to already know the basics for. Very, very few others give succinct, precise explanations of what, why & how, and no-one else provide so many of these explanations, for so many topics. I stumbled upon something in my voice a few years ago when I was just goofing off alone in the house, where my voice flipped from a strained yell being weirdly twisted & contorted to this rich, powerful, deep bellow that seemed to just erupt from my mouth to fill the whole house with barely any air or effort. I've come pretty far since (although lost & have yet to re-gain that bellow), but my understanding of my own voice & how exactly the soft palate & the ringing, the brightness and everything else works is sorely lacking. This though. Your videos. It's everything I think I need to get a hold of this thing. Just recently I figured out that leaving the palate partially lowered helped a ton with getting that ring to rear its elusive head. Man this is great. I'm actually gonna sing. quick update: oh my GOODNESS. My soft palate is basically a volume knob for brightness & ring. HAHAHAHAH this is FANTASTIC. My dad taught me to raise my soft palate as a kid, in order to be able to swim without something holding my nose to prevent water from rushing down my throat. I've been working that particular muscle out for some 20-odd years, for all kinds of purposes (younger me had impeccable fake colds) I just squeeze it up a bit and voila, clearer voice, a bit more, ringadingding, a bit more still, so it's basically all but closed - distortion, baby. Man I've been taking shots in the dark and hoping for the best for yeeears. Actual technique I can pull off on demand hahahah. I'm ecstatic.
Vague instruction by so called teachers is dishearteningly real. I've even heard another RUclips teacher say when she was making a point "you don't want to sound like that fake opera singing ". Ridiculous comment by a so called expert. I love this channel because it's a science he teaches not a vague unproven "theory".
This is so true even though many people say it isn't. My personal experience is that I could hum very high because thanks to the nasal resonance I could archive a strong mixed voice. Then when my voice teacher told me to raise, all of those notes were lost when I actually started singing. Thank u for confirming what I already discovered
Bravo brother!!! Seth Riggs used to talk about the spasmodic effect of raising the palate, as well as the added unnecessary weight and diminishing of natural tone quality that results.
Always an honor to have a comment from the one and only Brett Manning on our channel! Thank you for these wonderful insights into Seth's teaching! #legendary -NYVC
I have been singing for many years and never stayed with singing teachers as they were always telling me to do things that went against what I felt was write. I would love to teach now, but never tried to as I really don't know what is going on inside me that explains how it works. After listening to this video I can finally confirm that I was right to bail out away from the teachers I had and do it on my own. And now I can learn from you how to explain to others. I wish I lived in America so I could work with you. People love my voice and I love learning Art Songs one after the other mainly singing with CDs (no one to argue with though). You are what I call gifted at teaching no matter the subject, the clear explanations that make sense and no Elitism that is so rampant in the world of classical music. That you so much for your videos.
FANTASTIC!! Wish I had discovered your videos years ago. Such a relief and also validating to hear what you had to say. Yes, too much stuff that is handed down via voice teachers/coaches - folks that really don't know HOW to teach and charge way too much money, plus folks with no somatic training. I love people like you that are debunking the myths out there. As both professional singer and Feldenkrais practitioner, I respect and resonate (no pun intended) with your myth debunking. Very necessary. Thank you.
I want to thank you for the incredible videos you make. This one truly opened a whole world to me ! I've always been told to raise my soft palate and that nasality was bad, and I've never truly liked my voice. But now that I'm embracing the fact that it's OK to put a little nasal resonance in my sound, not only everything seems easier to sing but it also sounds better! Thank you so much!! And one more point for the very entertaining and funny intro :D
When my nose is stuffy I sound nasal. So why have I been trying to avoid using my nasal cavity for resonance? I'm just making it sound like I have a stuffy nose. I can't believe I didn't realize that for 10 years. This video is a blessing.
or to be more precise: in good singing the soft palate is actually flapping up and down; up for the vowels and down for the nasal consonants n, m and ng. If you keep it down all the time you will sound very strange with open nasality. If you force it up all the time, the nasal consonants will be impossible and it will strain your larynx, just as you showed in the video.
I saw this a year ago and kind'a understood, I guess, but I just re-watched and yes, it makes total sense now. Sometimes an explanation makes the doing easier, but sometimes one needs to do before an explanation will sink in.
He already is. Have you heard Justin's range and how different he can make his voice sound. You got see this. Amazing: ruclips.net/video/tnSSp3R9Wd8v/видео.htmle
Hey Justine, you are absolutly right with your explanations. You do this in a very good vivid understandable manner. I enjoy your Videos. They are great. Thank you very much :-)
Thank you!!!😭😭 as a young singer I've been watching videos on RUclips and you're the best one at explaining the anatomy of singing not just the theory of it but the mechanics that go into it!! Thank you so much!!😭😭👏👏👏
Great video, but don't you think we might need to differentiate between raising of the soft palate vs. keeping the back of the throat open as in open throat technique?
em, thanks for that... i think? (was just enjoying the traditional soft palate raising tonight though, and thinking it might help others from going flat. O well! ..gotta get back experimenting now!) .. It ws the thumbnail that brought me here. Now that we get a glimpse of Justin underneath those baggy Tshirts! 😳 Happy trails xxx
Using the soft pallet to not go flat isn't the best technique. Maybe what you are actually doing is stretching the cords back and that is the sensation you are feeling? -NYVC
FINALLY someone logical who's not just spouting off random imagery to try and explain their own subjective "feeling" of singing. I always have issues with nasality but am distrustful at times of the opinions of vocal teachers if it a) conflicts my own intuition b) is rooted in "feeling" and cliched advice, not anatomy or logic also you're hilarious 🙏🙏🙏
I think that a good, honest teacher has to be an open minded brave researcher. That’s why, as a vocal coach, I really enjoy all of you revolutionary tips. Thank you Justin Stoney: I always invite my students to follow your channel and I do it myself: when we stop doubting we stop growing, we stop singing.
Truly, Justin, it's the best vocal lesson I've ever seen and it covers that epic theme completely)) May I ask you to explain 'in steps' how to use breath support especially on high notes. Should we strain our belly muscles as at sit ups or protrude the region of our solar plexus holding our diaphragm filled or what is actually we should do?
Thank you so much Andrew for your incredible support for Justin and VLTTW! We invite you to check out our Breathing Playlist: ruclips.net/video/mDQoMyPmg9s/видео.html Hopefully these will answer your questions, but for another other concerns feel free to email them to questions@voicelessonstotheworld.com. Thank you so much, happy singing!
Loved the video, however I have a question. How the heck do you control the height of the soft palate while singing? For me I can't seem to raise or lower it voluntarily 🤔
Thank you for confirming this! I didn't know where you were going at first. I think it all comes the air pressure being sent, hence the whole concept of creating space (soft palate). If the vocal folds are stretched, they can handle that air pressure without lifting the soft palate. Some have debated whether a particular sound comes with lifting the soft palate. I have always maintained that there is absolutely a sound that comes with doing so. You hear it in some classical/opera singers who still hold on to this idea, which may very well work for that but not for contemporary styles so much. There is such a thing as forced resonance. I believe it's better to allow the resonance to happen rather than forcing it to happen.
But i have a question. (sorry for my english, i'm russian) When i try to use soft palate in your way, i realized,that my breath exale increases very high and i think i can feel air from my nose. So it hard to control breath (i sing without correct using soft palate about 6 years till this moment, i think) Is that a right way or i doing it wrong?
After conquering the bridges, opening the throat like having a hot potato in it, and subduing the swallowing muscles, I was still feeling constriction and poor release in my high notes, until you unveiled the truth about the evil soft palate. Thanks.
SUPER LOTR fan !!! love the intro as soon as you started speaking #galadrielisaboss but i think he means it should rise but not overly because high notes do need more space but not too much.
Hey Justin, Happy Easter! I sing primarily with a pulled chest voice and am working on head, mix, nasal registers, placement separately but don't know how to get a full tone when I actually sing a song. I think it's some bit of head resonance or open throat? Can you please explain what exercise/s will help to get that? Thanks in advance.
so when you hock phlegm from your nose, you're really manipulating snot from that resonance chamber across the soft palate into your throat? That's what's happening ?
The truth has been spoken. Thank you for this. This video is a big help for me. I've been raising my soft palate for almost 6 months. Hahaha. Cool introduction and ending. Thumbs up!
I love this channel, I'm actually focusing on this soft palate thing. Also watching other of my subcriptions (Ryan G. Duns), I saw a video of you playing guitar in Irish Tunes . I found that to be a great surprise. (I'm also teaching myself the tin whistle)
Thank you so much for teaching, I learned a lot from you. All these videos help me become a better singer, and I am so grateful for all of these valuable lessons :)
This was really helpful for me. I think I’ve been doing some weird flexing or something back/up there that’s been screwing up my vibrato and even pitch. I also think that bad habit’s been limiting my tone. Thank you. I’m going to practice right now and try and keep that relaxed. It seemed to make a big difference during the little humming exercise.
LOL at this video..Justin, your channel is amazing, I'm practicing all day with all the exercises of your channel, I would love to visit your school at NY, but unfortunately I can't, yet, I'm learning a lot with your videos, please keep it up. Cheers from Brazil.
Thank you Javier for your wonderful question! We encourage you to send it to questions@voicelessonstotheworld.com for Justin to review. Happy Singing from NYVC!

FINALLY! Someone confirmed what I sorta figured out on my own after long frustration with many other vocal coaches, books, and lessons.
This was adorable. The extra effort put into this episode was wholly worth it.
Oh my!!! All my life has been a lie. Thank you so much for breaking this misconception. Now I already know why I can't sing and always tend to tense is that I over raised my soft palate. Super Thank you!
+Joshua Maravilla We are so glad this was helpful for you! :)
5:08 holy shit dude... four years of high school choir and this was what I actually needed to hear
We're so glad it helped you!!!! -NYVC
Subscribed, this is the info and personality I need in my life ❤
This is what I've spent years looking for.
*So* many "voice teachers" online give vague, convoluted explanations for things you need to already know the basics for. Very, very few others give succinct, precise explanations of what, why & how, and no-one else provide so many of these explanations, for so many topics.
I stumbled upon something in my voice a few years ago when I was just goofing off alone in the house, where my voice flipped from a strained yell being weirdly twisted & contorted to this rich, powerful, deep bellow that seemed to just erupt from my mouth to fill the whole house with barely any air or effort.
I've come pretty far since (although lost & have yet to re-gain that bellow), but my understanding of my own voice & how exactly the soft palate & the ringing, the brightness and everything else works is sorely lacking.
This though. Your videos. It's everything I think I need to get a hold of this thing. Just recently I figured out that leaving the palate partially lowered helped a ton with getting that ring to rear its elusive head.
Man this is great. I'm actually gonna sing.
quick update: oh my GOODNESS. My soft palate is basically a volume knob for brightness & ring. HAHAHAHAH this is FANTASTIC. My dad taught me to raise my soft palate as a kid, in order to be able to swim without something holding my nose to prevent water from rushing down my throat. I've been working that particular muscle out for some 20-odd years, for all kinds of purposes (younger me had impeccable fake colds)
I just squeeze it up a bit and voila, clearer voice, a bit more, ringadingding, a bit more still, so it's basically all but closed - distortion, baby.
Man I've been taking shots in the dark and hoping for the best for yeeears. Actual technique I can pull off on demand hahahah. I'm ecstatic.
WOW! Thanks for sharing your story Nager! We are so glad to know that you've made so much progress! Keep up the great work! -NYVC
Vague instruction by so called teachers is dishearteningly real. I've even heard another RUclips teacher say when she was making a point "you don't want to sound like that fake opera singing ". Ridiculous comment by a so called expert. I love this channel because it's a science he teaches not a vague unproven "theory".
Thank you Justin...Thank You..Thank You... a true radical fact.
I love when he says “good for you”; positive reinforcement.
He's all about that encouragement! :) -NYVC
This is so true even though many people say it isn't. My personal experience is that I could hum very high because thanks to the nasal resonance I could archive a strong mixed voice. Then when my voice teacher told me to raise, all of those notes were lost when I actually started singing. Thank u for confirming what I already discovered
Wow! Great work, Mario! -NYVC
Oh boy, the trouble I've been through because of the soft palate issue...now I have a mental habit to undo. Thanks Justin.
Hahaha WOW!!! I don't have enough love for this video! So great :)
Bravo brother!!! Seth Riggs used to talk about the spasmodic effect of raising the palate, as well as the added unnecessary weight and diminishing of natural tone quality that results.

This is a very p-p-preciousss video
I loved the technical details about the resonance cavities in the head
FANTASTIC!! Wish I had discovered your videos years ago. Such a relief and also validating to hear what you had to say.

OMG! hysterical!
This was never made clear to me as a vocalist...but I understand the connection between palate and ring...wow
We're glad this helped, Chris! :D -NYVC
When he say "The King", its a must watch😀
One Ring To Rule Them All! -NYVC
or to be more precise: in good singing the soft palate is actually flapping up and down; up for the vowels and down for the nasal consonants n, m and ng. If you keep it down all the time you will sound very strange with open nasality. If you force it up all the time, the nasal consonants will be impossible and it will strain your larynx, just as you showed in the video.
I thought so, it felt really strange to force it up all the time
But what about going higher and higher in pitch? doesn't sound have to be more and more resonate in the nasal cavities?
Gedas It does. But you have to sustain those upper notes on vowels only.
I saw this a year ago and kind'a understood, I guess, but I just re-watched and yes, it makes total sense now. Sometimes an explanation makes the doing easier, but sometimes one needs to do before an explanation will sink in.
You're going to be a vocal legend one day!

ingenious!!!!
I want to view this video but the jumpscares scare the sh*t out of me :/
Oh no! It's all just a Lord of the Rings reference :) -NYVC
So we should lift the soft palate up a little, in order to engage the pharynx resonator to get a mixed voice?
hahaha-amaazing! You are so good Justin and the content of your videos are always made
crystal clear :-)
best teacher, love your theatrical style, keep doing it..
I found this video fascinating. I think i am becoming an Anatomy nerd hahaha
Wooooo Hooo! What an awesome thing 😄🤓 -NYVC
amazing ... love all your videos and this really shows your broad range of skills ... informative entertainment =)

Many thanks to you from Mr. Stoney! He is always so appreciative of his supporters! -NYVC
AAAAAAHAHAHAHAAAA! I love this!
😄😄😄 -NYVC
Loved the video, however I have a question. How the heck do you control the height of the soft palate while singing? For me I can't seem to raise or lower it voluntarily 🤔
Thank you for confirming this! I didn't know where you were going at first. I think it all comes the air pressure being sent, hence the whole concept of creating space (soft palate). If the vocal folds are stretched, they can handle that air pressure without lifting the soft palate. Some have debated whether a particular sound comes with lifting the soft palate. I have always maintained that there is absolutely a sound that comes with doing so.

I believe it's better to allow the resonance to happen rather than forcing it to happen.
...nerd.
=D
jajaj buenísimo. gracias!!!
But i have a question. (sorry for my english, i'm russian)
When i try to use soft palate in your way, i realized,that my breath exale increases very high and i think i can feel air from my nose. So it hard to control breath (i sing without correct using soft palate about 6 years till this moment, i think)
Is that a right way or i doing it wrong?
Does having a stuffy nose affect your nasal resonance? And/or, how does a stuffy nose affect your voice?
After conquering the bridges, opening the throat like having a hot potato in it, and subduing the swallowing muscles, I was still feeling constriction and poor release in my high notes, until you unveiled the truth about the evil soft palate. Thanks.
I love you justiiiiiiiiin
💙💙💙 Thanks for watching, Uttaran! -NYVC
SUPER LOTR fan !!! love the intro as soon as you started speaking #galadrielisaboss but i think he means it should rise but not overly because high notes do need more space but not too much.
Hey Justin, Happy Easter! I sing primarily with a pulled chest voice and am working on head, mix, nasal registers, placement separately but don't know how to get a full tone when I actually sing a song. I think it's some bit of head resonance or open throat? Can you please explain what exercise/s will help to get that? Thanks in advance.
Happy Easter Liza! Be sure to check out our Vocal Register World Tour! - NYVC
so when you hock phlegm from your nose, you're really manipulating snot from that resonance chamber across the soft palate into your throat? That's what's happening ?
Excellent class! Justin you are really great, theory and practice
We'll make sure Justin sees your kind words Arturo! Thank you! -NYVC
Funny AND informative. That's rare! I love your videos!
Lee Coeur h
You are very gifted!👏🙏 when I'm touring America. I'll definitely stop in for a lesson!
You’re very kind Tigger! We’re sure Justin would love to have you! -NYVC
If your teacher tells you to raise your soft palate, you should leave and find a new teacher?
Not necessarily! It's a very common thing to teach. Maybe have a talk with them! -NYVC
Your content is always fantastic, but this video was also adorable.
hahhahahaha excellent videos
Fantastic you are simply great thank you Justin
Is it accurate to say that raising the soft palate is fine when singing in head voice? Especially high 5th octave/low 6th octave notes?
Raising the Soft Palate is okay anytime you don’t want Nasal Resonance Skyscraper! - NYVC
The truth has been spoken. Thank you for this. This video is a big help for me. I've been raising my soft palate for almost 6 months. Hahaha. Cool introduction and ending. Thumbs up!
We're so glad to help you on your vocal journey! Happy Singing! :)
I love this channel, I'm actually focusing on this soft palate thing.
Also watching other of my subcriptions (Ryan G. Duns), I saw a video of you playing guitar in Irish Tunes . I found that to be a great surprise. (I'm also teaching myself the tin whistle)
Yes, I saw it too. ruclips.net/video/qPvC9u45CD4/видео.html
Thank you so much for teaching, I learned a lot from you. All these videos help me become a better singer, and I am so grateful for all of these valuable lessons :)
Dont you need to raise the soft palate to sing opera?
Nice hair!
love how big of a nerd you are. wish I would have found you earlier.
Haha! We're glad you're here Sean! Thanks for watching! -NYVC
This was really helpful for me. I think I’ve been doing some weird flexing or something back/up there that’s been screwing up my vibrato and even pitch.
I also think that bad habit’s been limiting my tone.
Thank you.
I’m going to practice right now and try and keep that relaxed. It seemed to make a big difference during the little humming exercise.
Woo Hoo! Hope the practicing went well for you Christopher! Keep up the awesome work! -NYVC
LOL at this video..Justin, your channel is amazing, I'm practicing all day with all the exercises of your channel, I would love to visit your school at NY, but unfortunately I can't, yet, I'm learning a lot with your videos, please keep it up. Cheers from Brazil.
May I suggest Justin's vocal training course: voicelessonstotheworld.com/page/vocal_course It's fabulous and affordable. Really helped me.
hey justin you have such a great voice keep up the good job
Mr. Stoney sends his thanks, Chelsea! :) -NYVC
lol hilarious, thanks for the vid!
I'm moving my soft palate up and down. But I don't know which position is considered closed or raised?
Thank you Javier for your wonderful question! We encourage you to send it to questions@voicelessonstotheworld.com for Justin to review. Happy Singing from NYVC!
Ok, will do. Thank you!
Having fun while learning;) great video! Justin! fantastic!
Funny ) I subbed and liked # 516 ) Subback please )
I have hard time speaking with lower larxy and issue with the voice placement
Check out our Larynx videos! Episodes 4, 17, and 42! -NYVC
As always so great video and funny to learn from you.... i wanted to comment here in Elvish but youtube wont work with it. Oh well.
No outtakes?
