Baritone here getting tons of help from this channel on how to get a proper bel canto sound

I always hear that you are one of the top tenor nowadays, and having the oportunity to get your knowledge is amazing. Thank you 🙏

To be honest, the lyric baritones can join confused tenor society because the anxiety related to the vocal crack is similar....😥🤕🙃😂

I was going to ask if baritone and maybe even bass baritones can benefit from this video before I saw the other comments and the answer is a big YES!!!!! This is why singers like Piero Cappucilli and Nicolai Ghiaurov sounded so enormous in the theater to name a few.

Oh my gosh I wish you made videos for sopranos! You have an amazing teaching gift for singers!

I actually can’t believe you’ve made this video. I’m only 5 minutes in. I have reached a point in my journey where this very idea of leaning into the vocal crack and learning how to use it is going to be beneficial. So many of your videos have reinforced my own ideas and thoughts. I’m so glad I found you.

great 🤩

When you listen to Giglis 1955 recordings on voice production the listener can clearly hear the singing is in his speaking voice. Gigli , such a MASTER By the way my friend I think you have vocal chords of steel and although you make it sound easy it’s not That’s why you are there, we are here Many thanks 🙏 Maestro

You did Nabucco?! I ADORE Maria Callas as Abigaille! Well, to be honest, I love her musicianship in everything she did! ...I think that you just pulled an Arden Kaywin! I've been watching her videos, and she is all about changing your mindset. Think of mistakes as tools for growth. Allow yourself to be perfectly imperfect. I have discovered recently that by embracing my mistakes in life as tools to grow stronger from, it is helping my singing as well! :) I think that I mentioned in your video about the passaggio that I want to start practicing Marchesi's bel canto vocal exercises. I started yesterday, and the first exercise is just a single note held for 3 beats, and breathing on the 4th beat. You are supposed to pay special attention to how you onset. It should be effortless, decided, and without jerkiness. For the female voice, it starts on middle C, and goes up chromatically to around F5. For me, it is helpful to envision each dotted half note as 12 sixteenth notes connected together. Your vowel grows progressively taller and more resonant the longer you sing. By thinking of it as several short notes connected together, you are already kind of in coloratura soprano mindset, and you are less likely to drag up vocal weight as you go up through both passaggios. Oh. Women's voices have 2 passaggios for anyone who doesn't know. Why am I saying all of this? It goes right along with what you said about allowing the larynx to be free to vibrate, and shedding vocal weight as you ascend in pitch... Take care. Thanks for making this video! Susan

Pavarotti said that you’ve gotta be willing to crack if you want to sing good high notes. I wonder if he was also thinking along these same lines? Great video!

Los mejores deseos para la premiere de Nabucco. Cantarás maravilloso !

I'm literally in tears I had this at full blast at my job and people were looking at me crazy😂😂😂😂

So glad i found this channel, i find everything you say so useful and common sense. Looking forward to the memberships!

Thank you so much for these tips, sir! I have 2 questions: 1. I can't do cracks this fast like you do, what should I do to make it fast like you do? 2. About confused tenor society, as I understood is it going to be like paid membership and if it is, please make it affordable for central asia people :D Our salaries compared to European are much lower, so "good" price for Europeans could be super expensive for us! And If I get to the point where I can easily hit up to C5 using your tips, I'm personally gonna donate you! :D Thank you again sir!!! Appreciate your tips so much keep doing it!!!

Thank you for useful informations 💐

You’re a legend!!!!

Awesome video. You got a new subscription!

This is awesome sir!!! Thank you. I am going to use it later.

Thanks! Always enjoy your content.

Thank you so much for sharing this!!

Bravo!♥

You are amazing! This tip helps enormously!❤

Ya aparece el negocio de la membresía 😂😂😂 no podía faltar

Thanks maestro.

Thank you incredible tuition as always-I will try this technique ASAP! These gems are vital information. I’ve never come across.

So is that where oscilation (vibratto) happens when relaxed (letting go of control) we're modulating between pitches naturally which is the application of control (inside out approach) instead of trying to control first which makes us stiff (outside in approach). Thank you Jose! Incredibly helpful. I've discovered 3 years ago The Unleashed Singer course by Draven Grey who depicts it as vocal cry" essentially the same thing you're speaking on and giving an example of, however his idea is more squeaky as a cry tends to fluctuate quickly in high pitches. I hope I'm phrasing this correctly 🙏❤️much love my tenor brother from another mother 😂

Thank you and God bless 🤗

Love your videos!

The easy way to explain it is: the yodel! It changed my singing. I stumbled on this device and it opened up the high notes in an incredible way. The yodel!

BRAVO

Very much appreciate this info! The problem I’m running into is that my B is fairly easy, but the C has a “static” sound around it that I can’t quite figure out how to “bring together”

Vocal exercises are always funny😂

Is this the mysterious "voce magra" Maestro LiVigni has mentioned?

Just discovered your channel! Loved it! I consider myself to be a bass/baritone. Is this channel meant just for tenors?

Would love for you to make a video on vibrato

Your videos have been so amazingly helpful man. Appreciate it so much. If you're ever inspired to do so, could you talk to us about developing vibrato? :)

You just helped me a lot. I found this by accident one day by playing with compression and found that weird but free cartoon character voice. Completely transformed my voice in an instant. I was able to blend smoothly from bottom to top and rediscover stupid high notes I could sing in my 20s that I thought were gone or good. I never really knew what I'd done - thought it was support related but this is exactly what it was and now I can focus on my improvement properly! What a legend!

I want to join the confused tenor society 🖐🏻😃

Great video! 🎉also the annoying interruptions from the Inspizient😅

Once you enter the CTS (confused tenor society), there should be a way to upgrade to TS eventually. Or it's lifetime membership 😅 ?

Dear Jose, I'd heartfully join the confused tenor society. I'm looking for you to give me your prospective on several topics regarding voice. Can i meet you somewhere ? I''d love to buy one hour of your time ! Cheers from France, Etienne

José, conoces a Paul Bruhns? Fué un profesor de canto alemán de principios del siglo XX. El habla de un "Freilauf der Stimme ". Nunca ha escrito en forma clara, que diablos quiere decir con ello, pero por lo que he entendido es muy parecido a lo que haces con el exercicio del vocal crack. El pobre Paul, eso sí, no tenía video para explicar, pero siempre me ha causado curiosidad. Según él, significa equilibrar el sistema fonatorio, para que las cuerda vocales y el appoggio se coordinen en forma óptima...

❤🇱🇨!!!

So tenors sing in a blend of chest and falsetto

I can easily do it slowly but like in the beginning of the video - it’s really difficult for me, when I try to do it as fast as you do, I just get stuck in one spot, in other words, dear Jose, teach us how to do it fast like you do, because I can’t get to the top doing it slowly, but you get to the top doing it FAST, how can we do it too? Please answer 😭😭

What do you think about training as a tenor and smoking? All the best wishes for your Nabucco premiere! ❤

You are a music angel 😇🎉❤ utube JOHN BAVAS Η ΜΑΝΑ ΜΟΥ ΜΕ ΔΕΡΝΕΙ
