- Full Range Tenor Singing Warm Up

Title says it all. A progressive full range warm up for tenor range singers. Starts easy enough with some gentle descending scales, quickly moves on to smooth and somewhat faster arpeggio/scale combos. Finishes up with some lip trill, range development exercises and pure vowel exercises in the upper register.
Enjoy!
My ADHD makes it near impossible to focus on vocal exercises, but for some reason this video holds my focus long enough for me to get through them. This man may or may not be a wizard, and I am 100% fine with it.
I love it! Thank you so much for watching and I'm so glad you can get a vocal workout with it!
As for being a wizard, I can neither confirm nor deny such suspicions.

Same! I recommend Jeff’s videos to everyone looking for vocal warm ups. I love that he doesn’t just say do this and moves on, he plays while you do it! Actually, that’s why I’m on the tenor video right now, doing it for a friend lol
Same. We need more musicians like Jeff who have honed their craft and still remain passionate enough to educate others. It’s a beautiful thing to just learn more about something we love instead of being scared away from it like many of us were. My piano teacher used to smack my fingers with a ruler every mistake, I was fucking terrified of something I loved. Still at 40 years old, every time I open a piano i’m reminded of Ms Beatrice & her bold choice to embrace chin hairs & smacking, over empathy & education. I’d love to know what her motivation was to teach kids because the woman loathed my knuckles and fingers ✌🏻rip babe
I’m glad the world has more Jeff‘s now. Thanks Jeff!
@@JeffRolka either way you're a bad ass and i hope this is making you rich you deserve it
There is no ADHD. Like many others, just a made-up disorder.

I use this video to warm up before every singing lesson. Bonus: Jeff is just so darn likable and sophisticated and downright charming. "Hello, tenors!" Well, hello to you, sir!
Why hello! Thank you so much for your kind words! I appreciate that so much! I must admit, I was already smiling, but this broadened it significantly! Thank you for watching and enjoy the channel!

*does warm up as a baritone*
Lol I do the baritone warm up then the tenor warm up and there is no weight whatsoever to my voice now! Thank you and I will be subscribing.
Awesome! Thank you!

Same here!
Same here bro, cheers!!
Seriously haha. I've been doing baritone-mezzo now im really confused about my voice type lol

I can’t thank you enough for this, I’m really struggling with my transition from alto to tenor, I just started testosterone a few months ago and this is helping me figure out my new range and not stress my throat so much.
same, i started march 2021 and this is still helpful
Congratulations! I hope your voice is everything you wanted it to be.
omg me too
this is the first warm up i’ve done since learning i’m a tenor! for years i’ve been doing warm ups not intended for me and i’ve never felt more comfortable
6 years later and this is still the best warm up for me by a country mile. I can’t thank you enough, Jeff!
I use this pretty much every day! Thank you for this.
Thanks for watching!
Jeff
You still still using it? 👀
@@darnellingram5719 I sure am!
Still going?
Me too
I hurt my voice singing improperly a few months back. I've had to cancel engagements because my voice just hasn't been where I feel it usually is. I've been using these warm-ups and my voice just feels like it's getting stronger and I am more in control of it. Thank you Jeff, I feel like I am getting my instrument back and treating it better this go round.
Awesome! Keep it up! Get better!

The best vocal warm up on CZcams .
Awesome! Thank you! Enjoy the channel and thanks for leaving a comment!

Still using this!
2 things.
1st. Jeff I use this video constantly. Thanks again!
2nd. A fun game is to ask yourself a yes or no question, then pause the video at any random point. Whatever expression is on Jeff's face is the answer.
1. You're welcome! 2. Fun game! I'll have to be careful; in some of the newer videos with the cold weather my hands are struggling with some of the patterns and I make some really unfortunate facial expressions!
Thanks for watching! Enjoy!
Jeff
I tried the silly game and had some surprising results
By the way Jeff excellent warm up
I may be a bari tenor as I seem to shift passages three notes earlier than you

I am a woman who is in this range and getting back into singing. This is a nice comfortable vocal warmup. I will be doing this daily! Thank you so much.
I was hit by a car as a pedestrian about one month ago (broke 16 bones and came very close to death). The hospital had a tracheal tube down my throat, which I ripped out when I woke up from my medically induced coma. They said it was likely I could have voice damage. Your videos have helped already to help me regain what I had before. Thank you so much, Jeff.
My goodness, I'm so sorry to hear that that happened to you! I wish you all the best of luck in your continued recovery.
Jeff
Still warmin up with this video in 2019!!
Many people liked this particular series of warm ups! Thank you for watching! Enjoy!!!
Jeff
@@JeffRolka probably because it's efficient :)
These were the best vocal exercises I've done. They didn't hurt for once
I really like your warmup. I'm not a tenor, but I'm a contralto. This is more comfortable than the warmups for women that I've found online.
This is my “go to” warm up video. I use this before every rehearsal, sound check, etc. Thanks for this Jeff!
I can’t thank you enough for your videos, Jeff! After barely singing at all during the pandemic, I finally took the courage to audition for my local cathedral choir. You exercises brought my voice back, and I just got word that I made the choir! THANK YOU!
Wonderful! Glad that the videos served you well!
Jeff
I studied bel canto for many years and although it’s been a long time, it’s like my voice never skipped a beat! This really took me back to all those years of singing scales and concentrating on clear, bright vowels. Reminded me that my trained voice is still back there!
Wonderful to hear! Enjoy the channel and enjoy singing!
Best,
Jeff
Mr. Rolka. This video has become my every day warm up. Not only for singing, but for centering myself. Thank you for sharing your content.

This just opened me up vocally for my recent audition and I feel like I nailed it. Thank you so much!
Bravo! Thank you for watching!
Jeff
Seriously this vocal warm up video has been the best for me too I swear
Thanks man. I just found your videos today. They are what I have been searching for. I will go to your website next.
Thanks Jeff this has helped me improve to the point were I've been going back in my up and coming album and re-doing vocal tracks.
I've been using this video for the past couple years, and as a Baritone/Tenor mix, this DEFINITELY HELPED MY HIGHER REGISTER! Thank you so much :)
Thank you Jeff, these warms ups are just right thing I need for my daily vocal routine!
Thank you so much for taking the time to make these videos Jeff. They are so helpful!
you have a calming presence. it helps for relaxing my voice
Shout out to @9:52 when I fluffed it a bit and you give the camera a look like, WTF mate? Seriously though, I check out a lot of the vocal teachers and try their exercises on here, and you have definitely been the clearest and most useful.
Awesome! Little semi-side eye there!
Sorry it took me so long to respond too! I saw your comment and then I lost it. For some reason CZcams filtered it but I found it again!
Thank you for your kind words! I do my best! Thanks for watching and enjoy the channel!
Best,

Great warmup! Thank you for your content, 5 years after and still so useful :)
Thx, Jeff! Some steady gigs coming in and I'm using these to help me sustain 3-4 sets nightly. Really appreciate you filming and posting these. Def sharing!
I’m a baritone, but had the role of Judas for the last couple months. This warmup helped me tons. Thanks Jeff!
I do your warm up on a regular basis and it's absolutely great :-)
Thank you for my daily warm-ups! Thanks also for your variety of approaches.
Hi Jeff, i just want to say thank you for your videos, they really help to warm up and to improve my voice. I used a lot of videos when i started to sing and yours are the best. Cheers!
I absolutely love your videos. So tremendously helpful and very clear. I get a thrill everytime I'm practicing.
Do continue your excellent work and I'll have the pleasure to do my warm ups everyday.
Your 'uu's are catmint for me.
Have a nice day.🌻
Thank you so much for these relaxing exercises. I am training myself to be a leggerio tenor. I can sing trills and florid passages decently and my upper register is rich and powerful but anything below the A3 is weak and breathy and I always run out of stamina after fifteen minutes. I will be sure to listen to your tutorials more often.
I use this video every day. I feel it is helping with my range and singing endurance. Thank you very much.
I use this warm up for like 2 years before every show. Thanks Jeff
That was excellent, this is my warm up video for now.
Lair
This is very helpful Jeff. Thank you. My voice is a Baritone and I am a band director, however I love to sing. I have been looking for some simple things to start training my pitch better and this is perfect. It also gives me some different things to think about.
Thank you for sharing.
Amazing warm up, this video was popping a lot and i finally decided to give it a shot and after that warm up i was able to hit my highest note in my falsetto register i felt the freedom in the voice, thanks a lot! 🙂
I absolutely love your vocal exercises. Thank you so much for making these for all of us. I use both your baritone and tenor exercises depending on how I feel that day. 🤣
Thank you Jeff for this awesome alto warm up exercise. I just started in my church choir and this will help me with singing in the church. If you can't find your alto range, just play around with it till you find what is comfortable for you and stick to that if that helps. I am no expert but seen some comments is all. Thanks Jeff, you remind me of my choir teacher so many years ago i worked with at Indiana State University in Indiana USA. Awesome vocal techniques.
Is this David dobrik older more sophisticated brother?
I thought he looked like John c Reilly
No, david dobrik is this guys’ younger lest sophisticated brother

So than yes?
Hey Jeff. What a great Tenor warm up. Exactly what I needed because like you on piano, I sit while playing folk music on guitar. Thank you, W.
thank you so much for this video i dont have a vocal trainer but i sing at pubs, and i needed something to enhance my skills. You deserve an oviation.
I appreciate you and what you offer here. Thanks!
..brilliant! I use this warm up almost every day - keep up the great work!
Thank you! Will do!
Wonderful thank you! Pushing me through my break up and down and over again is an awesome warm up!
Jeff i love your videos. I wish I had found them years ago. You have really helped me improve my tone intonation and the bridge between my registers. This video may be old but for me it is the best tenor warmup i have tried, it really opens up my voice. Your use of sharper tonalities to start off works really well for my tenor voice and helps reduce the strain i would usually feel on more open vowel placements
Your methodology is amazing. Makes it easy and fun to learn and practice. I watch your videos every day and thank you so much for being such a vocal coach committed to the art of music. Greetings from Brazil.
Incredible job, Jeff! I always use your videos before tracking vocals. Thank you for providing such great tools. - Steve
Fantastic! I'm glad to help!
All the best,
Jeff
Yep same, it's my ritual now!
@@jesuslovestoastyaya devin belicanga
I've been singing with a vocal coach for nearly 2 years. I'd never attempted to learn properly before. I thought I'd look for other warm ups and I wasn't disappointed. Thank You.
You have such a calm speaking voice, i wish my mornings started with on of your "and"s lol
Reminds me of high school as a beginner musician taking lessons. Thx for the warm up!
This is not only a fantastic warm up but it also helped me realize I had been singing a bit flat since I was a kid!! I've shared this with friends and family. You're helping a lot of people with these videos unquestionably. I'll never be some great singer but you've helped me to improve a lot. I want to thank you very, very much!
Thank you very much for your kind words! I made the channel in the hopes that folks would be able to use their voices a bit better and enjoy singing that much more for it! Glad to hear that the exercises are serving you in that capacity. Enjoy! Thank you for watching!
Jeff
Lol bro I've been using this as my everyday warm up for like a few months. appreciate u Jeff
Awesome! Thank you for watching!
Jeff
This warm up just really works well for me personally @Jeff. Thank you for doing this! Really appreciate it!
Wonderful wonderful! Short and simple exercises and I can feel that my vocal chords have warmed up! I also like it how the exercises prep the vocal chords to go into the higher registers gradually. This creates less stress and keeps the throat lubricated as well. Love it!
Help! I'm having a glottal attack!
Hey man I started doing this everyday. I have been doing it for 2 weeks now. My voice has already improved so much. Subscribed and liked.
Brilliant! Thank you for watching and keep up the great work!!
Jeff
Hey Jeff, thank you so much for this. It's been a while since I've been in the practice room and this is fantastic!
I was in show choir in high school and since covid-19 pins I haven't really been taking care of my voice but I'm glad that they're wonderful people like him on this app so I'm able to keep my voice nice and perky
Another great one Jeff! This helps a lot because I can always work on holding notes out. My producer gets on me for dropping or scoop the end of notes .... lol
Such a soothing warm up, Jeff. I find many vocal eases to be acrobatic and I lose the ability to stay on my breath but this is one of my favorites and as long as I don't push it really works very well for me. Thanks
If you like this, and enjoy more soothing warm ups, consider trying some of my 'gentle' warm ups!

Thank you for being here!

This really helps me to open the vowels and collocate the high notes. Thank you, Maestro.
Thank you 0 this was a wonderful warmup, I really enjoyed it and felt my voice becoming freer with each exercise.
Idk why i chose to do this so late in the night
Omg same its 11pm now
I’m the lead in a summer production at an amusement park and have to sing every night. This has been sooooo helpful every night. So thankful I found you!
Awesome! I myself did two summers at Cedar Park in Ohio! Where are you working? Thank you for watching!
Jeff
Jeff Rolka Canobie Lake Park in Salem, NH. I looove Cedar Point. Thank you for helping me sound my best!
This is a great warm-up. I'm a woman with 2nd alto/contralto range and this works wonderfully for warming up my low register,.
I am so happy to see this video crossed 1million views. helped me soo much! Thank you Jeff!!!
It did indeed! Very exciting!
Jeff
Jeff's warm-ups are useful and he looks like Chest Rockwell, which adds extra fun to using his videos.
Especially upside down in the reflection.
when you can't find an alto warm up video that goes low enough :P
I have a male version of your problem... i can't find a high exercise that goes beyond the high C, and i can reach E in chest voice.
Are you like Leggero tenor?
Don't know for sure, i can sing things a countertenor does in full voice, usually i train myself with some women music, another male that could easily reach those notes when he was young is Andre Matos, from Angra, listen to Stand away, reaching horizons, Nothing to say and Carry on and you'll get it :).
Just what I thought! ;-) Have been looking for contralto-warm ups! ;-)
Same problem I have! Its nice to have this video that actually goes low enough for me! I sing in two different choirs and one I sing with the Tenors and the other I sing alto and soprano 2. So this is a nice comfortable range for me when its tenor night 😉
Last March I was supposed to open as a lead in my high school production of footloose but then it got cancelled due to covid a week before opening night. My vocal instructor also left the state to go to grad school, so I felt kind of alone. I havent sung since then, but I’m trying to clean myself up as much as I can before i start applying for college auditions. I honestly don’t know where I’ll end up but I wanted to thank you ahead of time for at least giving me a fighting chance to get my act together
You have helped me for the past 4 years. TYSM Jeff!
You're welcome! Thanks for watching! Thank you if you've subscribed!
Jeff
You have the moves so nicely
Thanks for this, Geoff! It helps me, when I'm doing the dishes
This has become my favorite vocal warm up ever. I use it pretty much everyday, this and the falsetto one. Thank u Jeff, you're absolutely fabulous.
Wonderful! Thank you for watching and singing a-long!

This is so helpful and helped me a lot during college auditions! Recommend!!!
still using this helpful, straight to the point warm up. Thanks, Jeff!
Great warm up jeff!
This is helping me so much with smoothing my pasagio out.
Jill Johnson Mann it varies from person to person, mine is around E4-F#4. Yours may or may not be there. It’s where your voice starts to crack and such, and a good exercise that I do to help smooth it out is use “Gee” on on a 5 note major scale, starting at C3 and moving up by semitones. It takes a LONG time to work it, you have to do it very often. But you will get there. (PS I’m a tenor, if you’re a baritone start lower than a C3, bass starts even lower)
Passaaaggggiiiooooo
Smooth my dik
this content that ur sharing is tha bomb!! i love it. makes my voice feel so smooth and after this exercise i feel so relaxed in my throat :) !
2 years into this exercise and the high range tenor warmup and my voice changed dramatically for the better. Thanks Jeff
great warm ups bro!
Thanks!! Thanks for watching and enjoy the channel!
Jeff
Hey Jeff, do you have anything that has all the notes in the tenor range? Also something that spends prolonged time on the high/highest notes, as opposed to ascending to them and just coming down without staying. Not sure if I said this right, don't know any technical names. In a nutshell, if I want to a) practice all the notes and b) give the highest range in my voice a tight, tough work out what to do? Great channel, subbed and liked.
Hey there, thanks for getting in touch! Thanks for watching and subb'ing as well!
