Wow, this is the most awesome, comprehensive and informative video that I've found on this topic. Listening to You sing these dual tones, is so amazing!! They didn't teach this technique in classical voice training, or in opera workshop or in any of the music classes and training that I've had over the years. You make it look so easy. I'm trying really hard not to be jealous (lol). Thank you for sharing the wind sound blowing exercise, because that helped me understand my tongue placement and how to move the pitch of the harmonic tone - and thanks for explaining that it's best to sustain the base note for as long as possible to have more time to harmonize. I could get the polyphonic whistle tones after a couple of attempts! I'm going to practice to make sure that my harmonic frequency sounds like a whistle sound - rather than like a Didgeridoo. Thank you for sharing this fantastic video!

Thank you very much for sharing your skills. I can use your vocal training to help me with my movement trouble. I have a rare neurological condition and I am learning how to control my vocal cords and breathing. I use to practice meditation with breathing and singing helps my breathing skills. I have a natural ability to sing well too because of my mom. She was a musical genius. Sadly drug addiction caused her to lose everything and she wasn't able to achieve her dream to be a singer. Instead she passed on her ability to my brother and I. We use to sing together for fun and we even had a band and I was a DJ for years for small events. Mom passed away from cancer in 2016. I am autistic and I am trying to figure out how to get my artwork noticed. I have a feeling art is over done and I might be stuck. 🤷🏻‍♂️ I am okay with it. I've never been able to work because of my handicappies. I thought practicing my singing again can take my mind off my anxiety so here I am. ❤️ You are amazing.

A very good vid, thank you. One crucial part I am missing is the 'visualizing what the tongue is doing' part around 4 min's. Since I can make the whooshing sound several ways I don't know what you mean. What should the tongue be doing?
@TheStuartHinds
@TheStuartHinds 5 күн бұрын
Yes, you have to feel it. To oversimplify, raise the mid-back of the tongue for higher overtones and lower it for lower pitches. That kind of movement is used to make the 'roller coaster' effect.

Of course, the vocal folds in the throat are the source vibrations for a vocal sound, but the magic happens higher in the vocal tract. In general, overtones are brought out more strongly when the soft palate is vibrating strongly. Keep going!

@@TheStuartHinds Thank you so much! I was asking because I practiced overtone chanting last weekend and the vibrations get very strong, so I feel them in my whole chest area vibrating up to my head and sometimes it's not the most comfortable feeling i was wondering if that's a 'good' thing you know? I'm also still figuring out how to relax while doing the deep tones, chants, maybe you have some suggestions. with love, Janine

@@trueessence13 yes, discomfort while singing is a sign that something is not right. Often, beginning singers make excessive and extraneous efforts trying to bring out overtones. Remember that overtones are an intrinsic part of the sound, not something you are adding; the overtones come out with proper positioning, not greater effort - forcing never helps, it just makes you fatigued. If you post a short video of yourself singing I will view it and tell you what I observe. Use the "ng ~ ee" exercise from the video.

Thanks! For this /ng/ exercise, let the back of the tongue touch the roof of the mouth to demonstrate the location of the soft palate where you should focus the vibratory energy of your singing. Of course, the tongue drops back when producing overtones. Keep going!

0:38 "but they are always there [ overtones]" I figured that out on my own after many years of shitty music methodology they teach everywhere including the best New York vocal academy which produced people like The Weekend. even the opera masterclass people ignore this description - but they do stress copying the timbre so they get around it that way. The overtones and resonance are part of songs but when you look at the sheet music it is not in there. If you try to sing pop or classic hits from sheet music it will sound like shit - because the sheet music doesn't accurately describe the sound accurately. At least now I know I am not the only one in the world aware of these issues of audible multiple notes when one is written. Anna Maria Hefele probably knew too. But how do I get ahold of any of their methodological material ? Do they have any ? I literally looked through the best books I could find on singing years back - turns out there is only one which describes all the falchs etc correctly. It's scant out there ...

Pinched harmonic on guitar doing a single note is not overtones. Okay ... That's why this guy seemed too good . Alas... also it doesn't have to be a natural harmonic when you sing. and you can force three notes btw. and your root note keeps flying up a few half steps when you change the overtone note. Relax more. Slow down and give yourself time to switch over.
