Thank you for existing!

[@majkelclifer3481]

BUDDY TAKING THE OPPORTUNITY THAT THERE ARE NO COMMENTS, I WANTED TO THANK YOU FOR SHARING ALL THIS KNOWLEDGE. THANK YOU GREETINGS FROM POLAND I HOPE TO MEET YOU SOME DAY. THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING

[@simong8527]

Facts. I see the fastest progress since I stopped repeating stuff just for the sake of repeating it. Only effortless and strain free takes. If I feel slightly uncomfortable, I stop and look for the other way

[@serbianmind901]

I am always delighted when I see someone like Jose sharing knowledge selflessly, everyone wants to charge something these days, and Jose, may God protect him and all in his life, thank you Jose, my dear brother.

Great video! I'm a rock singer and one of the biggest revelations for me was discovering the connection between loudness and register. Many vocal coaches online are talking about whether SLS or Bel Canto is the better technique and make you decide between the two when in fact you should know and use both approaches according to the current state of your voice.

[@Dynamofoe]

Yes 🙌🏼 experimentation leads to revaluations 😊👍🏼

[@arthurcornelio]

I have a similar path, many many teachers, I became a teacher, I don't sell myself as a ready-voice, I try to pass the humanity sight in singing. Excellent video, Jose ! Muchas gracias !

[@karotrue1]

Oh dear, this is soo true!!! Thanks for "bringing on the point" (we say so in german.. dont know wether its a english expression as well..😅 ) and validating that experience, that I made the last months as well. But hearing from a Master like you, that experimenting with the voice and allowing the "ugly sounds" and cracks and that "trial and error "will lead to the "right way" supports me very much! Thaaaaanks!!! 🙏

[@WideCuriosity]

Experimentation is what I've been doing all my life, but it doesn't tell you what is safe and what damaging. As someone who can't justify the cost of a course with a professional voice teacher, (it's all just for my own ego boost, not for others so much, and definitely not for any career) KZbin is a vital information source. But I figure abandoning something if it didn't work immediately is a bit extreme; one needs to give things a chance to develop. Just don't be a fool about it, know when it's time to abandon something. PS thanks for the vids.

[@mindwalker1139]

That’s what I was thinking also, because you might be getting great information, but at what time in your journey are you receiving or using those practices? You have to go up and down the stairs continuously, picking up and dropping of the information that either works or doesn’t work for you at that step on the stair. Always come back down and on your way up some of the things you dropped may be picked up and some of the things you may of needed 10 climbs ago can be dropped off for another climber to pick up. Lol Just make sure you’re wearing a back pack, because it’s a lot of information !😅 The good information weighs a lot less than the bad information, so over time every journey up the staircase becomes easier and easier😃 without strain 💪🏼 Just remember It’s your backpack and no one else’s

[@Zulaany]

Yes, brother.

[@kevinlerou6088]

So glad you shared out the zigzag path idea... ! I felt alone a few times trying to go through it and talk about. Many times a soprano would come and say "It shouldn'it that complicated"... I guess in my experience the zig zag is the hardest for male / strong / high voices. Any opinion ? 🎉

[@TrollogyExpert]

yes, thanks for asking.

[@flaze3]

Wise words! You'll be pleased to know I watch a bunch of tenors talking about technique, and I'm always fascinated by what they have in common vs what they think differently. But I love watching your stuff, Jose. Sos un genio 😊

[@sempopo]

Thank you so much for sharing all this knowledge for free. It's extremely helpful. Will you be able to give some information about the counter-tenor as well?

[@redlab3488]

The trial and error method is the method from Franco Corelli and by the way an algo for AI to improve with action/feedback and minimisation of errors by sliding the parameters.

Giancarlo Monsalve mentioned CTS in his last video:) He said "Confused? There is nothing to be confused about!":)) Wouldn't you like to make a stream with him?

[@milton.lemonpie]

Thanks. Your stuff have helped me immensely. Particularly your tenor talk with Jack Lavigni. First time after my phd in voice science do I get to realise how support and adduction are so intertwined that it is meaningless to talk about the one without the other. I suspect very few people understand the extreme implications for practical functional vocal technique and the thought process behind it. Often people put too much focus on avoiding pressed voice which ends up to insufficient adduction or conflicting commands of adduct and abduct at the same time ! Cheers

[@sylvain_10beringer29]

It is funny because that's the way i did heard many singers and different youtube channel about singing and i just tried to imitate different ways as I imitate people easily in general and i think if i didn't have this capibility of doing the clown by imitating people maybe i would have never try so i think also that there is many way to discover and to learn how to sing in my little humble opinion. But if you think like this also i am maybe not in the wrong way😀 thanks a lot for all what you're doing

[@Osapuilleen]

I like the zig-zag idea. My path has been: depressing the larynx -> being overly open and bright -> trying the learn the yawn -> ???

[@aarontenor]

You are amazing at breaking it all down in a succinct yet thorough way that is not only understandable but seems to cover all bases. I also love your interviews! Would love to see you interview another world class tenor like Castronovo or Brownlee, or a world class teacher like Stephen King or Marlena Malas. Blessings to you and your voice, Jose!

Where is the masterclass with maestro fisichella??

[@tommycanaparo443]

I’ve been singing for more than 10 years with different coaches, went to masterclasses, masterclasses online.. and to be completely honest this is one of the very best advice that i’ve ever heard, condensed in a free video, keep it up man, amazing

[@marceloyamamoto7178]

Man, you're such a generous soul. Thank you for your precious videos.

[@er12144]

You are not insane! LMAO. Quite the opposite, sir! You're 100% correct!

[@LaVikinga108]

Lol, I use that same Einstein quote in my teaching!

[@NemesisTheInevitable]

That's very true. Free sound and the voice comes along way. That's true when you actually have a voice. I wish Yusif Eyvazov would try to make it differently though. A very ugly sound is all we makes and it's just awful to listen to.

[@cezaryturski8859]

i AGREE BUT MY ADVICE FOR ALL TENORS ESPECIALLY LYRIC SPINTO OR EVEN DRAMATIC. pLS MAKE SURE YOU ARE PHYSICALLY PREPARED FOR SINGING AND REMEMBER PAVAROTTI WAS ON THE 21 BIG STRONG MAN bJORLING AS WELL. TO KEEP HIGH SUBGLOTALL PRESSURE IS TO HAVE POWER , NO PLACEMENT ON MASK.> EXCELLENT TEACHER WITH PASSION AND KNOWLEDGE grazie.

[@yonathansuissa8814]

This video is brilliant! You're brilliant. I feel exactly the same as you described. I was unfortunately doing "the same mistakes" for many years and stayed with the same teachers for a long period of time putting all my faith in them. Until I realized, I can't count on anyone but me for doing the research and the work. And it's good to find high quality guidance, but the control and the decisions are in my hand, taking full responsibility about my voice. Trying many different things, different teachers and using inner intuition combined with commun sense to understand what's contributing and what's not. I often invent my own exercises according to what I feel is blocking me, and have some backed up concepts about healthy singing that are also guiding my intuitive exercises - as you say, not being afraid to experiment in order to find release in the voice. I have some road to go till I develop a real career, hopefully I'll find my way through the maze and narrow the "bouncing" as you described so creatively. From the time I began thinking this way about vocal technique, it has become more consistent and more fun.

[@DenisMorissetteJFK]

Experiment with the extreme. So many people are so afraid of not looking normal, sounding or looking weird. Watch pro Rock singers who make ugly faces, jumped around, bend forward, etc. Go crazy to discover what you can do.

“This guy’s out of his mind.” Bro, we won’t be singers if we’re in the right mind!

0:32 We make repeatedly the same mistakes because voice teaching is the worst thing ever, NEVER in a pro musican course we are taught how to teach (probably because it doesn't matter to do a real work on pedagogy, all it matters is YOUR skills which a lot fail to pass on to their students) I had two voice teachers after I spent 6 years and a half writing my electric guitar method and my electric bass method (2000+ pages each), I first tried rock lessons then thought a classicaly trained bel canto teacher would teach better.... NOT! Their lessons were non sense trying to force you to do things you physically cannot do in your 1st year of practice, using that gibberish language that makes you feel you are part of a new age sect... I do understand that voice teaching is harder because you can't really show the muscles, the vocal chords and everything that has to move or be positionned in a certain manner but come on... There are many things a teacher can do to make the student feel his/her muscles so he/she can progressively manage to master them... Also why isn't it a thing for a voice teacher to sing repeatedly a BAD and a good example so the student can be used to hear the difference and then make the student feel it on his voice by making him singing the bad and the good example ? How many singers & voice teachers have you heard saying "I spent months/years trying to understand what my teacher really wanted when he/she was saying me that"? There is definetly a problem with voice teaching, I am forced to be self-taught and watch videos because IRL teachers cannot plan what has to be mastered in year 1,2,3... of learning and create the right exercises to draw a smooth path for their students.

Funny I stopped the video at the beginning to write this and many things you said after are going the same way that what I wrote. It is quite terrifying that you have to have a ton of different teachers to achieve your goal though.
