You are by far the best in giving voice training!. I believe GOD has gifted you. I am soprano and sing on an international prayer ministry online. Your training videos have been helping me explore and develop my range. I feel so much more confident, and often sing well at short notice. In addition, I love deep, or very low, soulful singing. I used to wish my voice was alto/tenor. You have helped me tap into my deeper ranges, and I am so elated with the natural tones I've discovered! I can reach high notes easily, and now I sound so versatile, to be able to sing in very low tones too. Who knew I could do that? I know my sweet spot but I can't always find it right away. Some days it hides from me, and that's so frustrating. Thank you for helpng me accept my voice wholeheartedly, and develop my voice, to shine for GOD'S glory! May God continue to bless you and your family. Thanks again! 🙌🏽🙏🏿

Same here. I’ve sang in choirs and sang as lead above an entire congregation but it was hymnal music. I recently joined a worship team and I’m finding it hard to figure out my place in the mix. I was always a high soprano. But I haven’t really sang in years. My voice is definitely lower and I now tend to crack trying to go up higher until I flip into falsetto

Me too, loving the privilege of singing in true praise to The Lord❤

I always knew I was an alto!! Now I have to tell my choir director so I don't have to stress with the sopranos anymore 😅

Important conversation to have. I’ve lost my voice being forced to sing high even though I’m more of a light baritone.

Thank you, I was quite discouraged when I find it difficult to lead worship cause I was trained as a sopranos and like you mentioned, I have been put in a box.

Thank you for your encouragement. I have never had any professional coaching in my singing. But I love singing and playing my guitar. I have recently been participating in praise and worship at our churches prison ministry. Those guys love to sing! I want to get better for them and for the Lord.

I’m an alto, and I used to sing either alto or 2nd soprano in church choir; alto in the worship team. My best singing notes range from D3 to E5. I can go lower and higher than that, though, from B2 to G5 (A5 on a very good day). Number 15 on your scale was where my comfort level ended, but I easily got up to 18.

Hi this was a wonderful video answering many key points for worship. It’s full of great nuggets! I’m a beginner singer and finding I am strong in my head and chest voice at this time. Do you classify students right off the bat in your lessons or develop more then determine after some time?

@worshipvocalist 10 ай бұрын

Glad you enjoyed the video! I don't typically classify my students! But definitely not right off the bat - it's important to see how their voice develops because over time it can change!
