DoverOs Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 http://www.mediafire.com/?r8qmfqstfbpe2wn how do I get past c5? I could have made the recording a little more heady, but once I get past that area, it just becomes an open heady voice no matter what I try.

Keith Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 You need to back off quite a bit. Sounds like you are forcing it. As I recentt learned, the resonant space for notes that high is very small . Back off breath pressure a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoverOs Posted September 22, 2012 Author Share Posted September 22, 2012 alright. I've been listening to different singers high notes, and I can tell there's less tension somewhere, but I couldn't tell where. So I will try using less pressure then.

As I recentt learned, the resonant space for notes that high is very small . Back off breath pressure a bit. Wow okay so I tried this and everything started working. I haven't tried to see how high I could get, but I was able to sing up to Eb5 in a full voice, and everything was connected. There were no breaks or anything and the tones were sounding good. Before I could only hit a C#5 very briefly before having to use head voice. I guess the whole problem was that I was thinking that the upper pressure had to be sustained to get those notes. I don't know how the pressure changes for the super duper high notes above this, but now the control is much better for what I'm singing. I nudge the pressure in the right amount, but I don't actively sustain it or constrict my throat. The sensation is easier for lower notes because there's no extra pressure there, but the high notes get confusing because if you only relax the throat you go into falsetto, but if you push and sustain too much, you get met with a giant bridge at a certain point. The correct way is a mix between these two. Got to keep working at this. thumbs up d_b to Mr Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 I have my moments. Also helps to mentally visualize the feeling of sucking in air. I know that sounds like opposite what you should do , but , for me, helps me to keep my soft palate up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
