Is Everybody Ready? Well, Alright, then! Let's GO!!!!
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah!
Hi, Guys. Ken Tamplin, from Ken Tamplin Vocal Academy,
and I’m going to teach you a little bit about the voice, and voice lessons today.
This is Part Three, in a Three-Part Series on How to Increase Vocal Range for Males.
How to Increase Vocal Range, or How to Improve Vocal Range…
OK, now, Ladies, Most of the time women have a tough time with their falsetto, and guys,
some of you will have experienced this, as well, where your falsetto, or your head voice
is very flutey: “hoo, hoo, hoo…” and you can’t get good cord closure to create
that bright, timbral sound. That being said, or that being the case, don’t start and
lean into the sound so heavy: “EEEE, EE, EE, EE, EE, EE, EE, EEEE…”
Work first on getting good cord closure and that nice, bright, timbral sound, again, that
matches your chest voice, so that you can actually have one long, powerful registration,
where no one will know that you’re going from your chest, to the passagio, which is
the passageway, mixed voice, on in to Headvoice. Now there are some exercises that we can do,
called “sliders” in order to be able to facilitate this. First, you’re going to
need to do them very lightly, and then after you have done them lightly, where you can
connect, without hearing the break, and cutting back the air for this nice, bright sound,
little-by-little, as you build muscle strength, you start to lean into the sound more and
more. And that will be something like this:
“LAH, ah, Ah, ah, ah…” (Pitch starts low, slides up, back down, then repeats more quickly).
Do you hear how I can go from my chest register, into my head register, and back where you
don’t hear the break? So you want to force the throat to stay open, so it doesn’t spasm
and regurgitate, and literally yodel through that “Lahh>uh!< Lahh>uh!<” and create
that yodeling sound. I call it a “speed bump.”
“LAH, ah, Ah, ah, ah…” …and you can go up and down the scale, as comfortable as
you can, to where you can start to build this connection, over time. Now this isn’t something
that happens right away, and again, I want to emphasize: First, we build chest voice,
then we build head voice, and then we build this connection, quietly, softly, and then
little-by-little, lean into that sound, to match a robust chest voice with the robust,
powerful head voice that we’ve developed. OK? Thank you for joining me. Ken Tamplin
