    I had a request for singing warm down, but realistically, you could use this to put the finishing touches on your singing technical practice for the day or use it get started. As a warm up, you'll have to be pretty comfortable singing with only a chordal accompaniment.
    I couldn't resist making the cord progressions more interesting as I went along, I hope you enjoy them. I incorporate elements of the blues, modulations and minor tonalities. The melodies that you will sing in this video start off as single long tones to short chromatic and minor passages.
    Enjoy!

    Hi jeff! Fantastic videos. I thought I was a Tenor and struggled to sing like all of the popular singers today but hated my voice. I found out through your videos about 3 weeks ago that I am a baritone singer and it has changed my singing style so much! Ive practiced every day and your videos have helped me expand my range from an A2 to a G2 (F#2 on a good day).
    This video is one of my favorites and I was wondering what the notes are at 14:26?
    Thank you again for your videos!

    • @JeffRolka
      @JeffRolka  5 лет назад +3

      Good ear! Thank you for your kind words and thank you for watching!
      That's a minor key exercise that goes to the flatted seventh scale degree. So, in numerals you would have:
      b3 2 1 #7 b7 #7 1
      In the melody, where 'b' equals 'flat' and '#' equals sharp.
      So, for example in c minor, the notes would be:
      e-flat d c b natural b flat b natural c
      Best!

    Dear Sir ,
    I use your warm-ups all the time , what in particular is the use of a vocal warm down ? Should I use it after a heavy performance ? should I use it to relax my voice after I sing really really high & strain my voice ? Please guide me through .
    Love from India :)

    • @JeffRolka
      @JeffRolka  3 года назад +3

      You could just as easily use a 'warm down' as a very gentle warm up. I make them in the hopes that the gentle nature helps to re-focus any vowel alignment changes that may have occurred during repertoire singing or a performance.

    I'm a baritenor, and I also do alto, but only for popular music. Is it wise to do a baritone warm-down after the alto (coming after the baritenor) workout? If not, what do you suggest?

    • @JeffRolka
      @JeffRolka  2 года назад

      That could have a really nice focusing effect overall on your singing. If that is the case, then by all means, keep doing it.

    thank you once again! I wish I could send a recording of my voice so you could analyze it. My chorus class is filled with mainly soprano, tenor, and alto. There's only 2 baritones which is my friend and I. My teacher makes me sing with the tenor section and everytime I sing I feel like my voice isn't "strong" enough to sing as high as the girls (tenor). I wish my teacher would give me some advice, but she's always busy with the girls.

    • @JeffRolka
      @JeffRolka  6 лет назад +1

      Maybe consider getting on Sequencer, the facebook group I started. There's lots of people there who will listen to you and I listen as well from time to time. I'm sorry to hear that your teacher isn't helping as much as you'd like. For what it's worth, being a classroom teacher is hard work, and splitting one's focus to include as much of the group as possible can be really challenging. Maybe they could meet with you during lunch or something for just a few minutes?

    Hi jeff, big fan of your videos. I dont want to sound confrontational, but is there any like evidence that stuff like this actually helps?

    • @JeffRolka
      @JeffRolka  4 года назад +3

      Perhaps we can look at it this way....
      If you had a look at a young persons hand-writing, it would generally look a bit shaky, uneven, and some of the letters may be backwards or capitalized when they should be lower case.
      Over time, that person will practice, observe their writing, note where things are correct and incorrect, and eventually be able to write fluidly without too much conscious thought as to the practice of actually forming the letters.
      There's no evidence, however, that that will make them a good novelist or poet.
      You might look at these warm up videos and practices in a similar fashion.
      Learning your scales, how to align vowels, and navigate the registers of your voice gives you access to modes of usage; one might say it gives you access to modes of expression.
      With practice, observation, and perhaps some outside objective observation you'll have command of the instrument. From there, I would suggest, is where artistry comes into play; your command of your instrument facilitates your expression.
      Then again, depending on your mode of expression, that too could be arbitrary and subjective....
      Briefly, though, these practices work for me and my clients.
      Best,
      Jeff

    Hi, Jeff
    I've been following your video's since last 6 weeks and I like it in every way. Your video's have been really helpful for me and I can't thank you enough for this. Jeff I'm from Nepal and there is no western vocal course available here so now I'm applying for United states of America for bachelor in vocal performance but there are some audition requirement in all universities and the requirement's are art songs and I'm really unfamiliar with these kind of song, specially the universities wants me to sing at least one song in Italian,French or German language but I haven't learn this kinda of language in my music background. I'm in big trouble please help me.
    thank, you

    • @JeffRolka
      @JeffRolka  7 лет назад +1

      Hello and thanks for your kind words!
      If you have been practicing with the videos here on my channel, they can help immensely with art songs. The technique that I teach for singing is commensurate with classical technique.
      You don't have to have learned those languages to sing in them, though in your studies you will do quite a bit of language study. Singers use the IPA in order to sing in languages that they don't know. Google: IPA vowel chart.
      I hope that helps!
      Jeff

    • @JeffRolka
      @JeffRolka  7 лет назад +2

      Check out the Vaccai method for your range. One can hardly go wrong with one of those songs, perhaps the ever popular caro mio ben? Before choosing, however, check your audition requirements so that your choice conforms to their requirements.

      Jeff

    Hello Jeff! I love your vids, and always "thumbs up", but this one didn't got me locked in to the exercises. It seems like it was a tough day, or new sequences... I know you do your best, and it's always helpful, but it's not my fav one.

    • @JeffRolka
      @JeffRolka  6 лет назад +2

      Hey thanks for the feedback! I'll have to have a look at this one and see if I remember anything about when I was cutting it. I have my up days and down days, it's true. I try to leave it out of the videos but sometimes it creeps in. If anything, I probably didn't get a lot of sleep the night before I had to shoot, and lack of sleep can really hold you back. I have never been a great sleeper; easy to wake, usually wake with a start, and can have a hard time getting back to sleep once I've awoke in the night.
      Anyway....thanks again for your support and 'thumbs ups!' I really appreciate it!
      Best!
      Jeff

      I got ya. Even when we don't get to a whole lotta of songs "per say", music is all about floating with emotions, and this kinda goes into our movements in the piano and mainly in the voice. I just thought that is a better way to say.
      Your videos truly are a tremendous fount of learning. Your accuracy, patience and creativity to make these amount of incredible warm ups and just put it out online is a glorious deal.
      Thanks for answering me. This makes these warm-ups a real commiment know.
      Just kidding, it always was.
