If you’re struggling to keep your jaw wide, wedge your fingers or a piece of cork in your mouth and try again. Practice until you no longer need the wedge to keep your mouth open. [2] X Research source
Your vibrato may sound messy or feel loose and sloppy in your throat at first. Don’t worry – just keep practicing and it will become more natural and sound better over time. When you’re working on your vibrato, imagine your voice spinning out of your mouth like a laser. Practice vibrato techniques. For example, stand in front of a mirror. Press on your chest with your hands then raise your chest up. Breathe in and exhale, while holding your chest steady. Sing a note and hold it as long as possible without moving your chest. Halfway through, press down with your hands but keep your chest raised to meet the pressure. Relax the back of your neck and keep your jaw open wide as you belt out the note. Imagine the air in your mouth swirling while tucking your chin slightly and keeping your chest raised. [4] X Research source
Range is determined by the notes that your body is able to produce. Weight refers to whether your voice is light and agile or heavy, rich, and powerful. Tessitura are the notes, or part of your range, that you are most comfortable singing. Timber is what makes your voice unique in terms of quality and texture. Some people may have a more gravelly voice while Ariana does not. Transition points are where you transition from singing from your chest register, to the middle, and to your head. Vocal register refers to which part of your voice you’re singing in, such as head voice, chest voice, mixed voice, or whistle tone. Speech level is the range of your speaking voice. Physical characteristics play into your singing voice as some people may have larger lungs and stronger vocal cords.
It’s best to work with a voice teacher or choir director to find out if you are a soprano.
Imagine an elevator as your voice. Imagine how as the elevator rises, the counterweight must go down to get the elevator to its height. [7] X Research source
Use forward placement, which you can feel resonating behind your nose and pressing forward. To figure out what this feels like, hum or imitate a siren or a baby. Press into your forward placement when taking your head voice down into your chest voice. Aim to add weight to your sound. Use lots of breath support, especially when taking your chest voice up into a mixed head voice. Thin out your tone so it sounds whinier.
To practice falsetto, sing to the tune of a siren or ambulance. Releasing an “ahhhh” sound to the highest note you can reach without cracking, and coming back down is a great way to practice. [10] X Research source Another great way to practice is with the vowels “e” and “o”. These vowel pronunciations are perfect for the soft, child-like sing-song voice. Sing them from low to high pitches. [11] X Research source
