Thank you so much for joining me today for part three of how to sing high without strain. So let's just do a really quick recap shall we. In part one we learned a little bit about what limits the voice especially when it comes to high notes and that is the lack of resonating space which we addressed by aiming our air. And number two is the influence of the tongue the jaw in the back of the throat. So we alleviated that influenced by learning how to relax those things as we sing some high notes. Number two we learned that the higher area of our range is the release for the entire mechanism. So we have to feel those notes a little differently than we would the lower notes. So we did that playfully and we did that speech like by just releasing voice. Now today we're going to allow those things to come together as we create quality power through resistance. So if you like today's video please be sure to give it a thumbs up or click that subscribe below. I love you so much and I would love to see you here more often. So what is resistance now otherwise known as in planning level Ching. So we create a little bit of a stabilizing force with the voice as we create resistance so let's just let's just look at the science aspect of it. When we create any sort of sound especially higher notes there's a considerable contraction from the diaphragm right as the Air flies up through the body. So not only that but the notes themselves are really high frequency notes a very fast moving. So we've got to be able to hold open the body especially around the throat as those higher velocity notes make their way out into time and space. So we do this by creating that nice open vocal tract a way to feel that is just simply too young with me so young with me. Homer Can you feel that widening of that space and you're just suspending that just a little bit for sensation harm. Very good. Now hold it open sonnie. Excellent excellent so we're gonna take this a step further by imagining a elevator an elevator goes up because there is a counterweight going down that's how that whole mechanism works. Police and police. So we're going to think down into our body so that we can experience the fullness of the release of that note. So point toward yourself and as you saw. I just want you to draw a line down your body so feel it open good Can you feel that you are concentrated on going down into your body as that note was able to fly up that is the paradox of singing high fly so funky but we're going to keep thinking about our body keep staying with our body hold it open very superhero like your little open. Excellent one more time on hold open sign wonderful. Now we're gonna put this to a vocal exercise when that vain thing and we're gonna say the word e now there's this word it gives me a little bit of the heebie jeebies but phonetically it allows us to feel this very clearly so it gives us a nice frame of reference for that sensation so say for me. Can you feel that widening of the vocal tract as the note goes up you have go yeah. Now we don't have to say that whole word again it's really creepy. So we're just gonna say ye lucky sergeant here but I do want you to stay focused right here pointing at yourself and as you go for the higher note you swing for the higher not I want you to draw a line down. Now guys I know you're watching too so you can drop this down an octave into an area of your voice where it feels nice and easy peasy for you so we'll go and just feel that your mind is staying focused on going down into your body as that note goes out you ready. See me he follow not just don't intervene just for a second. Just like you don't worry about it. You don't even have to hold it up when you feel you. OK. Go down go down to your body. What you. Well that's how I go. You owe you do a good job. Very good. Now I should say that it's simple in theory really. And I think it is quite simple in application but move at a pace that feels very easy for you. Experiment with this play with this. Now that you have the information of the why. Look why this works by holding your body open creating that stabilizing force so that energized air can make its way out. And then we have the how of used just to experiment with this play with this. Now I will offer you this. We made almost a quarter ago to a and low of a sound. Yes we did. We want to make obvious for those muscles so they can get a nice solid consistent picture of what this feels like. We want to train those muscles to behave in ways that reveal right that are open rather than collapsed and concealing. So as you experiment with this as you play with this once you get a frame of reference for this behavior and it begins to happen on its own then you can modify the tone quality to something more befitting of your style and your taste. OK. So guys thank you so much for playing with me today.
