Daily Singing Warm Up - Alto - January 2019

[@MandyCummins]

Gosh the ranges are awesome! Way to force us to practice staying connected through our registration events, both ascending and descending! New favorite warm up.

[@HeyOlive239]

Thank you for what you do! Definitely helps and I get to know my voice better every time!!

[@heidibanker2572]

Couldn't find the alto version last night, saw it this morning and used it to warm up. Very helpful for some higher range songs we sang at church today. Thanks!

Awesome! Thank you Heidi! Always good to hear from you! Jeff

@@JeffRolka ,I can't tell you how much your videos have helped me to become a better singer!

[@SilenceInTheBliss]

I have tried to sing for years -- decades! I just have not been able to progress past a certain point. I cannot tell you how much your lessons, in only two days, have begun to transform my voice. It's amazing! I thank you so much.

[@JeffRolka]

Awesome!!! Keep singing! Jeff

Thank you for these wonderful warmups. Just came across your channel.

Without any further ado at 0:52 😉 Thanks Jeff! 🐯

I've been using these exercises for quite a while now, but mostly older ones. Now that I'm trying some newer ones, the range seems much higher for alto range. I easily did ones from earlier videos that were supposed to be on the high end of alto range. Are these going to higher notes or have I lost some range? Thanks!

[@JeffRolka]

I think I've been gravitating towards the upper middle range and secondo passaggio a bit more. I'll do some new ones that are primarily in the lower middle voice and chest voice areas! Thank you! Jeff

[@heatherelsley2998]

Hi Jeff, I use your channel all the time and am wondering are warm ups effective exercises for voice improvement the same as videos called exercises.

[@JeffRolka]

Yes, I just don't give a lot of the theory in the 'warm up' videos. They are still technical exercises. Best, Jeff

[@heatherelsley2998]

@@JeffRolka that's great. It feels like they are and I notice improvement most definitely . Thanks for your generosity Jeff🎶💓

I may not be an Alto

Спасибо!

[@ashleyseaboyer6284]

I'm not sure if I'm an alto or a mezzo. Could you tell me... Are these scales supposed to be done in only chest voice? Because the notes in alto here are a bit low for me, and the notes in mezzo I can only hit in head voice. But, I can hit them comfortably. Thanks for the videos!! It would be great to know how to classify my voice, though.

[@JeffRolka]

We'd have to work together for me to be able to help you define your fach (voice type). From what you've written, the minor adjustments to phonation (singing) that facilitate good registration events (singing over breaks) aren't happening as you make your way from low to high. With practice and attention to the likely areas of the registration events that can be worked out. Best! Jeff

[@ashleyseaboyer6284]

@@JeffRolka thank you!! I'll keep working on it.
