Singers: This Is KILLING Your High Notes

Many singers struggle to hit higher notes in their voice.

Most of the famous singers you look at seem to be belting their faces off in order to hit those higher notes.

However, if you do that, you'll notice those high notes will be strainy and flat.

On the other hand, you may try just singing in falsetto up there. However that won't help you sing with power.

Today, I'll show you 3 proven exercises for hitting higher notes than you thought possible...

I love how he shows examples of what he's saying by singing them. Some instructors just say but not do. Thank you very much.

I'm a teen boy, and I am really good with my mezzo. All I do is to sing Vocaloid songs and try to sing them. Over time, I did manage to even reach the soprano-G

You remind of two well trained music vocalists I studied with in my youth, who addressed these same techniques. You want to stay on top of the note, to avoid going flat which comes with practice, and clear them with natural ease, as you've mentioned, to avoid *breaks*

This video is extremely helpful. I tried signing without going up and there was less strain and I was able to hit the higher notes without it sounding awful.

Gotta say just by listening to ur rules and implementing my abilities increased amazingly

Omg it took me over a decade to get my mixed voice but that was all self taught. It’s funny tho cuz I was always super shy and stuff as a kid. Always wanted to sing and start a screamo band with my friends in highschool but we were all too shy to sing. Then I got a car and I was able to envelope myself in sound and not fear other people hearing me. After time I noticed I wasn’t using falsetto on the high notes. Still with me? Good. Using the same car radio technique I was able to screw around with different styles of screaming and now I can do good mid range like BTBAM and pretty decent high range like TFOT.

Ok I’m done. Thanks for the video I’ll have to look out for more that fit my needs. I’m alright at high notes now but having these more legitimate techniques shouldn’t hurt.

As a well trained vocal student, I agree. The voice must be free and moving. In classical singing, achieving this is traditionally done with covering/mask technique. Keeping a tower shape from the nose to the jaw, going upwards, prevents us from raising the larynx and squeezing the vowels. I feel I have benefitted from this in musical theatre singing, but some times people shame me for this because my vibrato is “too operatic”.

I do the vocal warm ups daily but the 'gees' seem soo difficult i traded em with 'fee' today xD better connection! But does it work the same?

[bartcleveland]

Sir Ramsey. Such good instruction. You give the why and that makes following your instruction with confidence easy.

I just wrote a song recently about a guy that I liked who didn't like me back. I'm normally an alto, but I made the song hard to sing 'cause it starts low and then it goes high. So it's around the mezzo range which I'm trying to get better at. These exercises are helpful! Thank you so much! 🥰

What if we are just trying to belt just chest voice.

[mattmobile]

3:18 nice comparison of falsetto and mixed voice, but you should have added the belting as well to make it complete.

I am a female appearantly i am a tenor (F3#_D5) i love singing but idk how or what to do or where to start

[Tyler-kodp]

4:00 - how do I know when to let the voice transition into head voice? This is the main trouble I'm having is like, I'll do the run once and flip at a different point every time.

[andybillington]

Where am I supposed to be feeling the resonance as I go up to the high notes? Should the resonance go up in to my head and forward in to the mask? Thanks
