    Jeff, I want to thank you for providing warm-up exercises on your TY channel. I sang along to them five days a week for 14 months and they have worked tremendously for me. I started with this baritone video, followed by the baritenor video and eventually the tenor range video. My range, pitch and vowel modifications improved dramatically.
    To others learning to sing. Before Jeff's videos, my technique and range were so bad I could not make it through a rehearsal with my band without losing my voice. Now I can leave rehearsal or a gig with my voice feeling great! These exercises work.

Some other Videos take the Baritone Scales to D5! :O What do they think we are? lol!! XD Again thank you!! Maybe one day we can colab~ I don't mean me singing.. I'm just a beginner.. Anything else though could end up being fun! ;)

    • @kipponi
      @kipponi 8 лет назад +2

      Mä voin vastata suomeksi, nimimerkin perusteella.
      Perinteinen Baritonin ääniala on G2-G4. Äänityyppejä on Lyyrinen ja dramaattinen baritoni klassisessa musiikissa.
      Äänialaa voi todellakin kasvattaa helpommin ylöspäin kuin alaspäin.
      Itse olen baritoni ja saan vielä melko huom! kuuluvan äänen E2.
      Hiljempaa( ei voimakas ääni) olen päässyt C2.
      Eli siis todellinen ääniala on se mikä on ns. vahva ja kuuluva ääni.
      Vinkumalla sitä pääsee todella korkealle, mutta laulamistahan se ei ole.
      Muista vielä, että basso tai tenori niin ei siinä montaa nuottia eroa ole baritoniin näiden eri äänityyppien välillä.
      Baritoninikin voi laulaa tenorin ylä-ääniä treenaamalla.
      Tenori ei taas koskaan pääse baritonin mataliin ääniin.

    I sing in a men’s chorus, and often times due to work, I will miss the warm up at the very start of rehearsals, and I decided to go to RUclips to see if I could find a great baritone warm-up, and I happened across this video. I love this warm-up! I play it in my car as I’m driving to rehearsal to warm-up. I play it sometimes in the morning when I know I have to do a lot of speaking, just to get everything flowing. Jeff, you have an awesome warm-up here! Look forward to see what else you have to offer! And I have shared this with the chorus members I sing with. :)

This is the perfect thing for me. I just sing along with a few of his warmup videos on the way to the gig and by the time I hit the stage, my voice is warmed up. Makes a HUGE difference.

    This is fabulous. I am going to share it with my son. He is not currently taking voice lessons. He sang bass all through high school then his voice teacher was sure he was a tenor and tried to groom him in that direction. Although he has the range, the richness of the baritone is so beautiful. He also did some musical theater which aimed more at the tenor as well. He said it hurt his voice to stay up there all the time. He will like this.

    Hey Jeff! I don't know if you'll ever see this, BUT:
    I've been doing this warm up every day for a few weeks.
    At first, I could only really "do" the first half of the video, everything else was just voice cracking nonsense.
    I can now hang out with the scales ALL THE WAY THROUGH and I'm honestly pretty proud of myself.

    You're an amazing instructor! Wish I would have found your vids back when I was I high school. Question, is it possible for baritone to develop a tenor voice?

    • @JeffRolka
      @JeffRolka  7 лет назад +21

      Thank you! That is very kind! A somewhat famous singer with whom I took lessons for awhile with used to say that as a baritone vocalist he 'masquerades' as a tenor. You cannot change the fundamental make up of your voice, but you can sing with similar resonance characteristics and volume profiles. Your secondo passaggio will be in a different location which may mean that some pieces will be more challenging as the notes may sit on your 'break.' If you're doing that all the time though, you'll probably get really good at it really quickly! The toughest thing will be going against your baritone power zone preferences. As a baritone, your range below g3 will be much warmer and fuller than most tenors. You'll want to curtail that somewhat in order to effectively 'masquerade' as a tenor!
      Best,
      Jeff

    so a few months ago instead of leaving a comment asking if this would be good for metal vocalists i decided to just take it upon myself and just try
    i love this and it helps me alot
    i do this everyday and twice on band practice days, i love the ease i could reach the higher notes after this warmup
    it truly covers everything a baritone needs
    thanks! cheers from israel

    • @JeffRolka
      @JeffRolka  7 лет назад

      And regarding the good luck
      Thank you very much
      I actually just performed a few days ago and did this warmup alot more than i probably needed haha
      I would say 4 or 5 times that day

    • @JeffRolka

    • @Thomas0661
      @Thomas0661 6 лет назад +1

      Hey Jeff, well thank you for helping me. Sure if you google my name, as simple as that, you should be able to see my facebook, web-page and other great stuff. I work for Showbizz Danmark, they do all the management, and booking. So all I have to do, is focus on the music and singing. Im 80-90% Solo out on my jobs, 1 man, 1 guitar and just have fun. Other times with my 4 man band. Where i lead sing, and play acoustic guitar. Singing very mixed range from; Johhny Cash, Leonard Cohen, to Elvis, to Freddie Mercury. I tend to belt out too much when i hit higher register, so I am currently working on to focus more and more to use my head voice instead of doing full on "Carlos Marín(Ill Divo)" My stomach sometimes aches after 3-4 days with 2-3 gigs pr day with 3x45 minutes sessions..., But I have to maintain quality each time I am out, so I am trying to be as dynamic as possible. Mainly from Start April to End September I am doing 170-200 shows. So rest and warmups are VITAL. Thanks so much again. Have a great day. Best Regards Thomas

    Thanks you so much Jeff! I have just started to practice this everyday. The O.. E... part at 11:18 is too fast for me at the moment but will get there I'm sure :-)
    Just for some background, I have always struggled with hitting high notes and am terrible at falsetto. I would always shy from karaoke because I could not sing my favorite songs as voice would crack, I just thought I'm not a singer.
    I had taken up the piano a few years back but only really started to sing with determination quite recently. Once I started experimenting with changing keys to suit me, I feel I have finally found my voice :-) community.

    • @JeffRolka

    Thank you for this. As a baritone and possibly bass I have had issues finding videos that work for me. I love pushing my upper register but its nice to have exercises in my proper range. Even my last vocal coach, wonderful lady that she was, was like 2 octaves above me and often had to compensate.

  • @darkautumnstories5834
    @darkautumnstories5834 7 лет назад

    From the age of about 7 years old to about 15 I was in two school choirs. From the age of 20, until the past 2 years, I always aspired to sing higher notes but I've come to realize and embrace the fact that I'm better singing baritone songs. I can sing higher but then my throat starts to want to take over and that's not good. Singing songs by artists such as Bob Crosby, and other artists from that era, really works well with my voice.
