Extend Your Vocal Range - Sing with Power & Projection

Does your vocal range feel limited? Is your voice feeling tired or overworked after you sing? Would you like to change all of that? Well, in this three part voice lesson intensive, we are going to learn how to relax and strengthen the muscles that govern your vocal range. We’re going to release the tension from your singing voice, which will give you smoother transitions and resolve vocal breaks. Then we’ll be opening and stabilizing your voice to give you more power and projection.

Let's break down how each voice lesson is special and what you're going to learn.
• Part 1: Tame That Terrible Tongue - In our first lesson together, we're going to isolate the tongue to allow for easier transitions (those spots in your range where you may have vocal breaks or instability.) You’re going to get twice as much vocal range with half as much effort.
Key Takeaway – Training the tongue to move forward in response to your sound will create more space an improve tone.

• Part 2: Lower Your Larynx - In our second lesson together, we're going to be exploring the swallowing muscles of the neck. Our vocal exercises here will help stabilize your sound when you go for more singing power and projection.
Key Takeaway – Practicing “Inhalare la voce” (inhale the voice) improves clarity, power and projection.

• Part 3: Relaxing Your Gag Reflex - In our third lesson together, we're going to put everything we’ve learned in the first two voice lessons together. You will be amazed at how much more open and accessible your vocal tone, singing power and projection is.
Key Takeaway – Relaxing your swallow muscles gives you a richer and fuller sound.

I encourage you to follow this singing system as a system. The vocal exercises within these voice lessons are fairly simple to practice, but they're highly sophisticated muscle coordinations. Keep working until you feel that you have these singing exercises into your muscle memory. Once you've done that, feel free to move on or come back to these voice lessons and keep practicing and brushing up on your skill building.

Thank you so much for including me in your vocal journey. I'm so happy to be on this path with you. I look forward to singing with you.

YO MADELIENE THIS ONE WAS SO DOPE . I FEEL LIKE A MOVIE PROJECTOR FOR SOME REASON

[jackcrescend]

I've had two major breakthroughs in singing progress in the past couple weeks watching your videos, I have a feeling this will be the 3rd after I give this a proper try ^^
( neighbors I am sorry, I've done everything to soundproof my closet )

[ProductCreationFormula]

I just found your videos for the first time today. I am so glad that I found this one secondly. When you started to go into the really high tones, I started to crack up laughing. That is such a funny exercise.

This is great! Had a song to practise this morning with a lot of falsetto, often after doing a lot of falsetto my throat feels rough. But it feels fine now after using this as a warm up. Thanks for sharing your expertise!

[freemara]

hi! Just wanted to say thank you so much for your videos… Every time I watch one I feel like I’m going to a university level class. Also, I re-watch a lot of your videos and I know which ones I watched based on your outfits, they are so cute and memorable! Thanks again for all that you do 🧡

[jackjax]

The sounds funny but it's really helpful.

Hi Madeleine how are you?! So great to see your amazing lessons! Thank you for this 🍁❤🧡😊 I was wondering can you do another riffs and runs? They are so fun to do with you! Also could you do one for training low notes? :) have a beautiful day and holidays!! Looking forward for more cool uploads queen!👸🥰💖🌟

[CastleKingside]

Thank you for your help.
I appreciate you.
Peace.

[LicenseTo_Bill]

someone asked me if i take vocal lessons and i think they weren't making fun of me. thanks for the videos!

[jacobespinola]

Thank you for the tips and tricks. Happy Halloween!!

[chelseadaley]

Sometimes I always try and keep myself more relaxed as possible for whenever I’m trying to do my vocal warm ups but other times I keep being more told to relax my jaw and tongue for whenever I have to do something

[minivoice]

Madeleine, i think your amazing coach. Can you make some videos about mixed voice? I really need them

[hanhdoan]

Hi Madeleine! I wanted to ask if you could do a video of singers that have shown bad singing techniques? I hear a lot about Idina Menzel and although I hear strain in her voice, I don't know what she is doing exactly technique-wise that is damaging. Would love to hear insight from you. Thanks!

Has anyone else tried clicking the link for the skillshare course and had issues with it? When I click the link it takes me to a page where I can sign up for the course. When I click the button to sign up it loops me back to the same page.

I have a low voice, and after a few hours of talking, my neck lymph nodes start to hurt. Should I try to speak higher than my natural speaking range?

[ShalomMbugua]

Very helpful, I have been doing this but not quite understanding what to do with my tongue when i change to the next note.thanks for the clarity. Only question, is what do i do to clear the phlegm (or cracking)in that upper range of mine around C5, more or less. I am a male tenor, I hope to be the best I can!

[zendragon]

what does it mean that this exercise seems to activate my gag reflex???

[kentkent]

Please make a reaction to Dimash's new song "The story of one sky" Interested to know your opinion
