How to sing high with power

Hello friends! I'm Madeleine Harvey and in today's video voice lesson, I thought we'd explore how to sing high with power. Power is that awesome combination of fullness and freedom. Today, we'll go over vocal exercises for power. This way, you'll learn how to sing high notes with power and ease. The tendency of many singers when they sing high, is to carry all the weight from the chest voice into the head voice. When this happens, pressure builds under the vocal folds and causes the larynx to rise. the result is a sound that feels strained and stiff. In order for us to sing high without strain, we have to strengthen the head voice. But just because we're going to be concentrating on head voice, doesn't mean your sound will be heady or weak. By the end of today's video, you'll learn how to sing high without strain by bringing both head and chest resonances together with equal strength, equal power and equal importance. This is the same feeling for how to belt high as well. Are you ready to learn how to sing high notes with power? Think of your tone as a circular container that clicks together. In order to sing high without strain, your chest voice must adjust as it goes higher in pitch. This is so it can prepare for the lighter, finer coordination of head voice. In the same way, the head voice must lower and become heavy to prepare for the bulkier coordination of chest voice. When the two come together, you'll be able to sing powerful high notes with ease. Are you ready to sing higher? Ready to increase your range?
