    So in high school I used to be able to sing up to a G6. Ever since I got to college, singing a C6 seems extremely difficult. I just tried this warmup today and I am already getting my range back! I cannot wait to see my improvement a month from now! Thank you!

      @joebloggs619 Pƙed 3 lety +1

      I think I'm some sort of mezzo who can go ver high as well as sing very low alto notes though.my extreme high or extreme low octaves are not very strong. If I don't sing for a while or do hard exercises daily, I lose my top and. bottom octave and am only left with my easy 2 middle octaves. OK as a range for much modern music which usually does not call for a big or high range and sounds best in an alto or mezzo female voice for most songs, unless you are doing high backing vocals. But most of all the really great classical music is for sopranos, with only a few really good mezzo or contralto songs, which is a shame because lower gale voices are beautiful. But, must admit, singing higher soprano than my natural easy mezzo range is pretty exciting because it feels so bright and takes less physical strength to do, unlike alto or lower mezzo nature's which require a lot of deep heavy breathing to get the power and darker quality of such lower notes. I like these high soprano coloratura exercises because they are fast and slippery and you can really go overboard doing them. But I'd hate to have to sing a coloraturas operatic aria, Joan Sutherland style, using such vocal acrobatics as coloraturas soprano singing involves. Too fast and agile for me. But it's fun trying, by doing these exercises. Sometimes I listen to high coloraturas and I could swear they are making up the song as they sing. Then I found a piece of such high coloraturas operatic aria, Caro Nome, if I recall and checked to see how high it went and what all the coloratura high vocal frills looked like written out. And got a shock when it confirmed what I suspected about such extreme coloraturas sopranos. That they just make up the music on high notes and add in their own bits. Because the music for their line actually tells they they can "ad lib" their line. Basically sing whatever notes they wish. And nobody would K owe they made it all up. But, if a y other type of serious singer started just making up classical music and singing notes other than the composer wrote, there'd be shock from the audience. These coloraturas seem to be an artistic law unto themselves and I'd like to sing like they do. Just to get away with inventing stuff as I sing, forget what some composer wrote and expected singers to sing correctly. Just warble away and sing any high notes you feel like singing, staccato, legato, whatever you feel like. So free...

    Thank you. I can reach the very high coloratura soprano notes but have a thicker soprano voice that struggles with great coloratura on extreme high notes, though I can do it on the medium high or middle notes, but not very low ones. These exercises are helpful. I like the no nonsense, just sing it approach and the fast pace. Get through more exercises in less time.

    Hello Kristen, I can't remember exactly where you say "it can also increase your range", but I would just like to confirm that you are absolutely correct! I had a 2.8 octave range (I can't remember my actual singing range of notes, but it definitely has increased, and my range is now C3 to C6 with a 3 octave range. I am really happy with my progress, so thank you very much!

    Hi Kristen, you may remember I acknowledged your reply to me about the sound quality, saying it is so much better now. I found this lesson so much more comfortable (for want of a better word) than the first time I did it, and I actually got to the top! I read some time ago (another site) that lip trills actually help extend the range, and they seem to. Hope I have got that correct! These coloratura lessons are amazing.

      @sopranosingsmozart5745 Pƙed 4 lety

      FYI There are generally 2 reasons why lip buzzes don’t work - either You don’t have enough breath or your lips are tight! First of all push your lips in with both hands so you get a fish lips look :-) then imagine breathing under your chicken wings ( arms) keeping your rib cage expanded and using your belly button muscles to initiate the breath! Good luck !

On the subject of other topics, my apologies if you have covered this, but I have read so much about vibrato - some coaches say it can't be taught, others say it needs to, some say you can "help it along and improve it". I think mine came naturally, but I can stop it if I have to within a song. I would love to have your opinion on the absolute correct way to go about this.
