    “This is just the way my voice is…” NO! Stop that. I’m tired of hearing people sell themselves short and give up before they’ve even tried to find a solution. You likely can do SO MUCH more with your voice than you think. Let’s talk about what your mindset should be so you can grow as a singer and stop letting these LIES hold you back.

    I'm pushing 50 and sang in bands when in my 20s. I gave it away because people told me I couldn't sing and I believed them. 30 years later as some who has hundreds of tunes recorded with no vocals because I've been waiting for a singer with a great range to come and sing my tunes, I found after listening to a few of your videos the singer I've waited for is me.
    I'm comfortable singing Jesus Christ pose now and I'm blown away. Still a way to go but thanks mate. You explain things well and I appreciate your advice.

    I want to emphasize the first you said about being a baritone and hitting high notes, I started as a low basslike baritone, altough I can still hit F2 and E2 with power through the years I developed my higher chest registers just because I didn't accept the nay sayers that "don't sing that high, it's not your voice" which is a nice to put that I sounded awful, which I did, BUT! After 5 years of sheer will power I can sing A4 and A#4 as a baritone and sounds nice! Just a year ago I could only hit a G, and 3 years ago I could only use an F4 so it shows it develops, after 5 years I learned to know my voice so now I know my limitations of my own voice probably won't go up higher than this but still! When I started I could barely sing a D4 shouting, now I can almost sing any tenor song only lowering the key just 1 note or just a half depending on the song and I still have my lows. Just be patient with yourself and try your best improving on already existing notes you have in your own range!

    Hell yeah!! I've noticed over and over in myself that the mindset that one has makes a great difference in singing and in life in general.
    To be able to sing aggressively becomes "available" when you let yourself go, despite other people might think and Even You might think.. it is a psychological barrier and an exploratory thing.. but Doing it Right IS a matter of technique, of balance, of feel!..
    You were very clear and I couldn't agree more! Thank You!

    I'm so thankful I found you on CZcams. I've been singing for about the past year and being in choir kind of limited me. My range spanned from roughly a D2 to a C4. I used to think that because I was a bass I could never sing that range. Since I've started watching your videos, I've gotten a hold on my mix and the highest note I can comfortably sing in it at the moment is an A4. I can go even higher with full head voice, and I'm still working. Thank you so much for your content and helping me discover my voice

    Chris, May I offer another misconception for beginners? Just because you see someone famous nailing a high note that may (or may not) appear effortless, doesn't mean it's not challenging for them or they're not at the top of their range. There are times where famous singers have to sing in higher keys than they are comfortable with.

      Bit late to the party but to add onto this, knowing when your voice is, 'having a bad day' i.e. there might be notes you can hit some days, but you can't other days, whether as a result of being unwell; cold, saw throat etc. Knowing that your voice isn't in the right state to hit a certain note, low or high, can be the difference in presenting yourself awkwardly to a crowd (voice crack etc) & possibly embarrassing yourself, knocking your confidence & more importantly damaging your voice. I think Freddie Mercury from Queen, during a performance sung a lower key to fit the bill of a song because he was aware at the time that he wasn't going to hit the original note that night- saving himself embarrassment and keeping himself from damaging his vocals (there are plenty of other instances with many different vocalists, just the first one off of the top of my head)

      @@DeadeyeRX75 thank you for this! I have been on my journey to sing for a little bit of time now and I definitely have those days where I can’t get my range. It’s intuitive to understand that you’re not always going to have the same range, breath control,, etc. on any given day due to any given circumstances.

    I cannot express how happy I am I joined your channel ❤️ I wish more musical people around was like you. I love the way you think and talk. Its like small little me, pushed down, talking aloud to me again. I love you for that. I try to trust my self again. Like my singing again. You are true Yoda for me, leading me. Talking to me nicely. Giving me a power I might lost... I used to sing from my childhood and simply loved it. Just by my heart. I didnt know enything about techniques and theory. It was just a fun... Than I faced dislikes from people and lost the joy to singing. So I learned some techniques and got it inside of me like a natural thing.... I started to like singing very hard stuff, not sure why, i just liked it, and learning it is a fun. I somehow see my self copable of anything. But a lot of times I am not sure. When I listen back to my self. I can hear every mistake i did. And it leads me into depression. It is also very hard for me to not hear every wrong tone someone sing. Its like a nightmare for me. Needing only pure perfection to hear. When I hear nor corretly tuned instruments it drives me creazy. Even I know someone did the best he could. I never complain, i just try to enjoy anyway and gives thumbd up to anybody, becouse I know people artists are very sensitive. I feel the same. But I find no sympathy for my self. I hate so much every mistake i make. Omg. Its so hard to keep practising if I am not satisfied. Do you struggle the same? Or am i creazy? Anyway. I love your videos. And thanks a lot Chris.

  • @vegeta1885
    @vegeta1885 Před 4 lety +3

    Also another misconception about vocal fachs: Let's stick to men for example but it's the same for women. A bass, baritone and tenor fachs are classical terms in their first meaning, where in the opera world being a baritone did not only mean you can sing low but you have a certain vocal color. Which IS NOT true for pop singing, with technique you create your voice own color just by placing the sound differently. You can develope your own character in your voice, for example Bubble have a more chocolate like color all through his range which is "baritonish" all up to G and G#. But in my case when I sing high, I usually sound bright, tenorish, why? Because I chose to going in that direction, when I sing low I put on the chocolate to maximum.
    So fachs in pop only means you range placed lower or higher just by a few notes on the piano, comparing to other fachs. If I have accepted that I can only sing low, I would never be able to hit the notes I can hit now. Just listen to your voice, I'm not saying every baritone will be able to sing high, but you are a fool if that stops you from trying. Just keep it pleasureable to the ear.

    Alright, so I do think I misspoke a month or so back. My point is that range is honed and developed, especially during the teen years while the folds gain mass but also thereafter. A four-octave range (we’ll spare five) is simply the result of a low voice preserving or rediscovering their more childlike notes and integrating them into their matured instrument, or more generally, a voice exploring the full gamut of their vocal registers without fail.
    I think the reason men almost always lack in whistle is that they spend much of adolescence suddenly having and using a much deeper range & vocality than before, and this new, richer chest voice is already a block to their head voice, which they already underuse due to the chest range being more vocally efficient at fundamental pitches and due to stigma against the falsetto as sounding effeminate and fake. Whistle itself is a break off of falsetto, and while everyone has a vocalis edge to bounce onto from cricothyroid, the CT muscles often weaken in men due to this. We don’t even speak in whistle as humans in general, and with a weaker falsetto, how will one expect to break into whistle without glottal interference?
    I practiced my head voice throughout my adolescence as well as mixed registrations of all sorts. I am trans female. My voice has been somewhat tired I’ve noticed in the past few days but by and large, a day where I feel truly impeded is when I struggle to get past A5. How does this happen? Well, it’s a matter of regularly coordinating my registers to work supportively at high pitches. And men often do have the notes that women do, it’s just that they have to be “unmasked” from the chest range, and will likely sound twangier and darker.
    As for Mariah Carey, I stand corrected not to emphasize that the development of her voice is a truly phenomenal one, borne of exploiting youth damage to her instrument to the advantage of developing an immensely formidable whistle register and soprano belting ability, but it is one I think we can all learn from as it shows just how much the vocalis muscle can be stretched and thinned, even with a lower instrument, which for a woman she has said herself that she naturally has - which would make sense as her range in extension well exceeds that of a typical soprano at both extremes. Without her vocal circumstance it is unlikely to develop into her. But she also had great interest in the moment to develop this register, as it gave her notes she otherwise could not easily or efficiently hit - nor would others otherwise be able to.
    I believe this, alongside possessing a wide range myself, is why I claimed that a five-octave range is “a social construct”: not only is such a voice harder to maintain by virtue of having 70 percent more notes than a standard voice, but these notes fall across multiple registers *coordinated* along the TA muscle (ideally for power’s sake), and can be gained by understanding which pitches most generally lend themselves to the points of passaggi between each register. This property can be exploited to create a voice that seemingly transcends simple voice type ranges.
    If one has equal access to the lowest reaches of chest, an extensive head register, and some whistle notes (or alternatively some subharmonic notes - another side of the same coin), he or she or they will have a four-octave range almost guaranteed. The Philip Baileys, Chris Cornells, Beyoncés, and Morissette Amons of the world have greatly made use of this capacity. That the notes from D3 to F5 are accessible to most fully developed voices (a full operatic range right in the middle of human voices) is also a sign that range can be bought through consistent practice, as is the presence of register breaks that allow for a voice as phenomenal as Mariah Carey’s to exist. Maria Callas was a similar case in that she did not let lower placement of voice interfere with her capacity to vent her voice well past C6, as well as well below C4.
    All of this said, is a five-octave range waiting at anyone’s door? I doubt it, and I doubt four just the same (though more feasible). Speech patterns and the developmental nature of the voice make that a gift not guaranteed. But at the very least the latter is possible through time and work, and everyone has the registers theoretically capable for either one. And at the end of the day range is practiced, not just owned, so one could simply allow their voice to never develop into having a wide range... or they could work to develop and maintain a very wide range. Power and range also come to work dialectically, and one can trade one for the other, or work them in synergy to create a simply expansive instrument over all. The choice is always in some way one’s own.

    Hi Chris, appreciate your posts! Question for you..
    I was diagnosed with muscle tension dysphonia which got worse after my surgery. I couldn't speak/sing for 1.5 months and I have recovered my voice. However, I have MTD and I believe I've had MTD for a long time because my voice had not changed from before surgery. Vocal laryngoscopy showed that there is a muscle covering my vocal cord in the posterior region. I am assuming that this hinders my ability to sing especially at higher pitches (ex. I cannot do falsettos as well as, say, 5-10 years ago. Also, I lose my voice very quickly after singing/talking). Do you have any tips or suggestions on perhaps overcoming this or improving the condition?
    I will be seeing a physical therapist for laryngeal myofasical treatment soon.
    Thanks alot in advance!

    My ex girlfriend always said i couldnt sing, now many years later I can sing so many songs now. I basically taught myself by singing to songs in my car, I started with The Eagles and Dance Gavin Dance. I would start with humming the tune and eventually get to hitting the notes as I more accurately sing the lyrics each time i practiced. My wife has said I sound similar to Don Henley, if that is accurate im happy with that :)

    Regardless of your speaking voice, which is in fact a little higher than what a baritone speaking voice is suppose to sound, you are not a baritone, you are a light tenor to me, some people speaking voice when is deep and resonant, chances are it might be a baritone, but others simply speak very low, but does not have that resonance, most likely are not baritones, where i study 90% are tenor voices, baritones are very rare and everybody here likes them.

      I also had this issue. But i found a completely different aproach for those vowels and this enabled me to sing with chestier to up around B4, after B4(including it) my ee and ouu vowels sound goood even in head, they sound almost the same, though i prefer when I can hit it in more chesty squeezed coordination(sometimes I hit C5, but usually it tops at A#). I was thinking for years that I cant sing with normal tone higher than G#4.

    How can I make my mixed voice sound less falsettoish and sound more full? Because as of now it sounds like head voice/falsetto but a little bit thinner. It sounds kinda like this:

    Robert Plant lost vocal range. I think he understands all the concepts presented by vocal instructors on the internet, but given his age and circumstances, it just isn't realistic to expect him to get above, say a B4 on a really good day, even though he used to get to at least an E5.

    The worst four letter word your voice can ever speak is "can't" It's called self-limiting. "Can't" never "could"
    Change "I can't yada, yada, yada" to " I haven't quite figured out yada" or "I'm still learning how to..." Even "I need help learning..."
