How To Sing High Notes

[@AndySaenz]

3:28 WOW, can we just talk about how effortlessly he sang through 3 OCTAVES right there?? The proof is in the singing indeed! And Ken is one hell of a singer!

[@kentamplin]

Thanks, Andy!

[@JoseFernandez-ks9se]

Gracias Ken! btw what is the range here?

As a beginner, what were those notes?

[@kennethbubser9601]

That will do it

[@kswannie]

Ken is an awesome singer and teacher, and a true gentleman and scholar - if every singing student had a teacher half as good as Ken the world would truly sing in perfect harmony.

[@kentamplin]

That's kind of youo!

[@JusticeForTheDead]

This guy deserves the internet's top award. Its not just that he teaches, speaks well, is clearly respectful and eloquently open-minded, and knows music and how to explain it - its that there's a heart behind his demeanor and presence... Many blessings

[@XsunslayerX]

I'm a beginner and extremely self conscious about singing in front of ANYONE but I'd let this guy teach me because he's so chill and has that gift where he understands it so well he can teach it in very simple language without sounding condescending or like he's dumbing it down. Most things are fairly simple to people who truly understand them. I had a geometry teacher long ago like that, he made really advanced math seem fun and easy. It's a very valuable skill to be able to teach like that!

[@LAUptegrove]

I started performing when I was 10 or so. I could sing ANY high note..... I stopped performing about age 40. I stopped performing totally. AMAZING, in about 3 months, something happened to me which usually happens to boys at about age 12; my voice dropped. Considerably. As time has went by, my throat muscles had atrophied to where my range was severely restricted. I now have a great, deep voice.....but no range. Finding this video in my late 60's (as I once again re-enter the performing world) has been a Godsend to me. It brought back all those excercises I had in college as a music major and reminded me that everything is about musclature and of course, that old saying: "If you don't USE it, you LOSE it.". I'm taking these exercises to heart and even after a short period of time and finding an amazing recapture of some of my range.......with expectations of building back a good performing range. Thanks so much for sharing this. I'm now a subscriber and will check out all your other videos. I owe you a big one for this.

[@musicandmania]

I don't want to sound cheesy but i freaking prayed to find a channel like this. Music is my whole thing and im a vocalist as a personal passion. I dont do much with it but ive been taking my singing seriously for a few years, for no real reason other than that its what i want to do, just for sake of doing it. I am a 30 year old woman and my range is not of the typical feminine but I thrive in the 80s glam rock. No other channel has truly provided what I have needed, by teaching, examples, and most importantly, my type of voice and range. I cant believe I stumbled upon this.

[@c.julien8266]

Dude! You add the science to the art! Years ago, I was told by a pro singer to never sing beyond my range. This lesson debunked that myth. I'm gonna work at this.

[@germcrazyshokoff3623]

Does anyone give out an award for the best faces made while singing scales? If so, Ken wins hands down.

[@Nofrnzclub]

Recorded a new song this weekend and my friend who I mix with said “yo your voice is a lot more confident. It was before, but now it sounds a lot clearer and effortless.” Thanks Ken🤙🏽

[@kentamplin]

That's awesome!

[@kenearnest3921]

Ken cracks me up. He basically does 15 minute video without and edits except when he needs his guitar. Nothing says amateur like edits every 30 seconds. The BEST vocal coach period.

[@user-hp4ce2bo7v]

8:06 - 11:30 Once again Ken, you've done it again. Thank you for your help. I've grown as a singer by taking your video lessons.

[@daynelawless]

You can teach anything you understand and can communicate articulately to a student. Fact. A great teacher is mindful that is NOT about them or their ego.

[@tatjanalatimer9633]

You're right about other coaches on high notes. I was taught so much about head register, and dealt with the embarrassing passaggio hiccup. Broke free from that, and now following your lead, and sounding much better for it.

[@SLAmey-mu9hd]

This is exactly what my wife wants to be subjected to on a Friday evening over here in the UK..... She's watching Love Island, I'm watching Ken Tamplin... #winning

[@kentamplin]

That's awesome!

[@aoisatan]

The only vocal coach who can do what he preaches! Thank you ken! You're amazing !

[@sethblackburn8067]

I have been watching your videos for about a month now and been practicing to the best of my ability and I noticed my voice steadily improving to the point of accidentally yawning a clear and oddly beautiful note at work, I can't wait for your next set of videos and hope to join your singing course by Christmas time as a present for myself.

[@kentamplin]

Wonderful!

[@tony.kmullinsstudio818]

I love to hear you teach. You're one of the best teachers on KZbin of ANYTHING. You could probably make videos on putting up fences, software development, and oil painting. They'd get as many views and followers because your presentation is so good. :)

[@RyanHicks306]

I have always been a fan of you Ken. This is a wonderful demonstration. I studied voice for four years doing all classical singing and as you say the proof is in the singing. Good technique is good technique no matter what style of music. My first teacher took time to show me the anatomy of the muscles and moving parts in our bodies that are used with the voice. There are no short cuts and I love the point you make about giving the voice a foundation for high note (not hit, but place). Now, I am a songwriter/performer in Americana/folk-rock and use these techniques all of the time in my own music with a foundation in studying voice for four years. You know you anatomy of the voice and I continue to learn and grow from you, Ken. Thank-you for the great lesson.

[@kentamplin]

Very cool, Ryan!

[@pauljacques5778]

I want to thank you so much for your program. You've done a lot for me. you've gave me my backbone. I've always wanted to be a singer. and not just that singer. but the singer. I'm from Eugene Oregon. and I bought your program. and I work with it. the days that I can work with it. I want to work with it. every and I do. since that day. I was 12 I can remember that I've always wanted to be a (singer) and be with your program regardless of what genre you're working with. I'm a Country Tanner . and it's absolutely made my achievements so easy. every day I practice because. (I love to sing). and it makes my day even better so I want to say for me it's not only the price but it's also the program that you put out I used it in 6 months it has made me a 10 times better singer and I'm still working with it thank you so much for your time and effort from the person Aaron Eugene Oregon country singer tinner thank you so much for this I am sure singing My Country Tunes thank you for your time

[@shawno66]

True story: I bought Ken's course a couple years ago. I now play in a "working" band. We play range of music including Foreigner (Feels Like The First Time, Hot Blooded), Boston (Foreplay Longtime), U2 (Vertigo) and The Darkness (I believe in a Thing Called Love). I've had 3 random people come up to me (all at different gigs) and ask me how I sing so well! One person said "you play until 1am... how does your voice get better as the night goes on?" I tell them the same thing: Ken Tamplin Vocal Academy!

[@kentamplin]

Awesome!

[@misst1586]

Awesome

[@SomniumGK9437]

Thank you for such detailed explanation and for reminding us about the kindness of allowing ourselves not just to practice, but to also believe we can make it.

[@bassinbob1965]

Some people are just really good instructors. Thank you for taking your time to make and post your videos. I` appreciate you. Rob

[@debsbarra1130]

I'm so glad to have found your videos. I'm 68 and recently started singing in a rock band again (23 years and a thyroid surgery later). Trying to get my chops back again. My upper chest voice seems tight and not as high as it used to be. I was thinking my voice would never be the same after my surgery but after watching your videos I have hope I can get my range back. God bless you Ken!

[@kegenrodrigues]

That’s really impressive. Keep it going🤟🤟

[@bsenka]

I have always been amazed at the range and tone you have been able to sing with. You have this ability to be both singing very high notes while also maintaining a vocal tone that sounds deep. It's like you're using your chest voice and your head voice at the same time. You and David Coverdale were the only rock singers I have ever heard that could pull this off.

[@jessicabeca1234]

For the first time in my life I feel like I did vocals correctly. No dizziness, no chest discomfort, no lack of air. This was great. 🤍

[@bennettjones364]

I'm a baritone obsessed with hitting the high A in Child in Time. This exercise got me to the G below it and with no strain. Thank you!!

Merci beaucoup Ken! Du Canada français, Quebec ! Thank you very much Ken! From french Canada, Quebec.

[@Frankyz84]

I am a self taught singer and have been singing seriously for the last 8 years. I admit i am not a great singer, but folks seem to like what i do and i get paid for it. I have always felt that i could do better and since i have come across your KZbin lessons i feel i have started to improve, and this lesson could be a big help as i tune down my guitar a whole tone so i can cover a wider range of songs. My plan is by this time next year is to be able to cover the same set but in standard tuning. I think this lesson will go a long way to helping me achieve that. Thank You.

[@bishopspitfire4399]

No matter how good you are, you will still feel that you're not the best even though you are better than you think. Please don't let yourself down!

[@chrismadden6047]

This is one great effortless singer and a great coach. He is truly a dedicated master of the art of singing. Hell of a demonstration coach, this coarse is awesome and full of content for everything to do with your voice and keeping your voice healthy. I can’t recommend it highly enough and glad I purchased it helps me every week I perform.

[@davescott6980]

I do it by practicing thousands of hours, I think that is the best method!!!

[@TheFakeyCakeMaker]

Ken, I just love you. Part of singing is feeling good about yourself and allowing that positivity to vibrate through you. Even through the video I just feel the love you have for your craft, the belief that anyone can sing and like I am allowed to sing and should be singing. Thanks. I've struggled with high notes since forever, this is the first time I've allowed myself to singing high notes without fear

[@LouieCamantigue]

These lessons that you brought to youtube made a great difference on my singing even If I’m still working with my diaphragmatic support, relaxation and singing with no tension. But I greatly improved because of what you do. Thank you! I hope someday I’ll be able to afford your whole course.

[@propkilla2955]

Wow Ken! That note BLEW MY MIND! You MUST be a vocal GOD!

[@joemaurone7923]

Thanks, Ken! You just solved a mystery for me as to why I could hit a high note in one place of certain songs, but miss the same high note at the end. Much appreciated!

[@kentamplin]

Happy to help!

[@steveramirez8270]

Truly helpful for loosing the fear of sounding like a great singer. It takes a lot of skills to make this easier than we believe, goooooaaaaallll!!

[@clemensmariahaas8370]

Ken, THANK YOU VERY MUCH !!! I knew that my voice can do a lot, since I joined the choir as a tenor (typical, average pitch from A - C) but in the choir I had to sing barrito because it was missing below and, to my surprise, it worked very well . Then the range became ever stronger downwards, down to the deep D. Now, just now, I sang a whole tone more than 4 octaves for the first time in my life, completely relaxed, without squeezing, with shine and a beautiful sound and almost seamlessly to the very high register - THANK YOU, you are really great and you helped a lot! The most important thing about you is that you always have the fire of enthusiasm in you. Please don't ever lose it.

[@VIDEOHEREBOB]

Thanks Ken. I think a lot of success with high notes is mindset and plenty of experimentation, feeling your way to the notes and moving away from the perception of them being "high."

[@peternelson4419]

Thank you brother - that came at just the right time. Seriously, I'm mixing a song, and the only thing missing is the note I can't hit without nearly passing out! ha ha This is perfect! I've been singing my entire life, and I have found the psychological aspects to be incredibly interesting. I realised something was strange at the beginning when I could sing great on my own, but was hopeless in front of anyone. SInging is good for the soul no matter how you sing.

[@amythinks]

Just came over from the Steve Perry video. I'm totally new to you. I can smell a vocal coach BS-er from a mile away. There are so many terrible vocal coaches out there...frauds, really, though they don't know it themselves. I am completely unfamiliar with your teaching style, but I can tell immediately that this is the real deal. I was professionally trained in a past life, and some terminology is shared, but your method on the whole is unfamiliar to me. Still, everything you are saying is clicking with me just from my experience with my own voice. How refreshing to find someone who really knows what they're talking about. Subscribed!

[@mmmitchell6887]

I could feel the resonance of truth in this video based upon my own experiences of learning how to sing. 👌🏾thank you for sharing this information.

I found you by accident trying to learn how I can hit Tony Lewis "Your Love" better... actually was looking to see what others did that have issue with the pitch... I can "almost" hit it.

Myles Kennedy (AlterBridge) often speaks about using Bel Canto and using his muscles used to ‘pee’ to support his 4 octave vocal range. He is in his 50’s and maintains near perfect pitch and vocal control both on record and live in all his crazy high notes! Great singer. Great band!

[@kimedmond5377]

Myles is an awesome singer I’m a big fan

[@mazzars1772]

Another excellent video mate. I spent a long time throttling myself to hit high notes, burning myself out, getting sore throats about once a week which really put a hamper on regular practice. When I finally worked out what over-singing was and learned to back off I realised how much range I actually had.

[@lilyofthevalley5586]

[@scully5860]

Thank you, thank you, thank you! I was always able to hit higher registers and scream like Ian Gillian when I was younger, but I lost it over time (56 now, smoking for 30+ years didn't help either). I accepted this as inevitable, especially when I saw Geddy Lee and Ian lose their range over time. Watching your video and paying attention to how it feels made me realize that the problem is losing my core strength over time. I may never get my full range back, but I now know if I rebuild core strength to support the notes with my diaphragm will give me more of my range back.

[@Thor_Asgard_]

Always a big thumbs up to your content. My singing teacher always says, you should sing songs that fit you, but i still love songs like the slow version of Take on me that isnt naturally for me, but i still force my self to be able to and despite him not liking me to do it, he supports me and today iam able to reach those high notes quite easily. Singing is so much practice and ppl tend to be unpatient ^^ i was too. Much love to all those good ppl out there.

[@mountain_girl]

So happy to have found this channel. Aside from just seeming like a genuinely kind and caring person, you have that aire of experience that only comes with so many years of hard work. But more importantly, it is obvious that, aside from your musical talent--you have a unique gift for teaching . A lot of crazy-talented musicians suppliment their income in-between gigs with teaching. Only a small number of them teach well....likely because they do not love teaching. Thank you for this great content.

[@LeeEisenstein]

I've studied classical voice for six years with three outstanding teachers/singers and Ken's course, (which I subscribe to), is FANTASTIC! If you want to learn how to sing, don't hesitate, sign up and practice what he teaches. You'll be astounded by how good you'll get.

[@bryanmaderazo5729]

[@viviangendernalik]

It's wonderful encountering a vocal coach who actually has The Answers. Wasn't looking for a vocal coach (not that couldn't use one but my life plate was more than full other ways) but Jesus dropped you in my sidebar & now I'm also an academy attendee because the cliche 'you're the real deal' applies. In a short time I've had impossibles evaporate & look forward to using some of your stuff to delivering more of my stuff. God bless you, Ken, your success is well deserved from all your valuable material just like this video, full of barrier breakers.

[@piotr5357]

Amazing video as always! I've always been thought of as a baritone, because I hardly could get pass F#4. But there was something I couldn't get - I had even more problems singing low notes, that a baritone should be able to sing with ease. It wasn't until I had gone to music school, when I was told I'm actually a tenor. I didn't believe it, so my teacher kind of suprised me - even at the top of my range, he insisted I keep going up with the proper support and... We went up to B4 easily. Practice and technique are really the only relevant way, and despite having a break in music... Thanks to your vid I might consider going back at it 🤠 Cheers and keep up the great work, you're an amazing teacher!

[@misery3681]

After doing this for a couple of days, I got to E5 without a break in my voice, but the most comfortable note is a D5 for me. Still having a bit of an issue on singing actual songs in lower notes and the tone, but it's coming along. Thank you Ken!

[@Rippinband]

I love that "give yourself permission to hit the high note :) That was an instant help -Thanks !!!

[@cadeevans4623]

Thanks for the tips Ken sometimes it's hard to hit those high notes especially in the mornings you got to let your vocals get loose and loosen up as the day goes on your voice needs to wake up gets easier to hit high notes later on in the day for me it does anyways but placement head voice chest voice up in your make all these techniques help make it easier thanks for explaining the tips Ken it helps all ways buddy👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Ken speaks the truth 🙏🏻. Took me many years of singing to figure all this stuff out on my own. I still learn things from these videos and get reinforcement of things that I already discovered on my own. I took some lessons from an opera singer in the early 80’s and no one spoke about head voice. I was stuck on high C for decades lol. Fear of the note is your worse enemy 😉.

And I agree with you completely about demonstration, where some people might talk about doing something, but never demonstrate what they’re talking about which is something that I have always tried to emphasize with my student and for whenever I post a video about singing tips, I always try to explain what I’m talking about And then demonstrate how it works so that way people can see that I’m not just talking to hear myself talk but that I actually know what I’m talking about and I can demonstrate how it works even showing them in song form how the methods I teach can be applied

Awesome lesson, Ken, and love this approach of giving ourselves permission by gradually building that strong foundation. I’ve always thought of myself having an extremely limited range (definitely couldn’t hit that E5 or the one before it!) I do solo gigs on the weekends playing 80s on acoustic and have to transpose most songs so that I can sing them (Richard Marx, Bryan Adams, Bon Jovi, Don Henley, to name a few).

[@pianonotes1010]

I love that you spent the last five minutes or so explaining vowel placement, timbre, and the passagio relative to bel canto; but not actual mention you were describing the bel canto foundation. Your approach is excellent. It's not nebulous or impractical. It's easy to conceptualize and visualize. Similarly, Luciano Pavarotti conducted a master class years ago and had the student--a young tenor--imagine his voice was a trumpet producing a bright, forward sounding note with the same quality. When it comes to singing, there's so much more to teaching than just spewing out a bunch of technical jargon. 👍👍

I love Ken's videos, and learn a lot whenever I tune into this channel. One thing I noticed at 02:05 minutes in this video is how well-developed Ken's vocal and neck muscles appear. Even when he's not singing. I mean, just LOOK at the muscles along the side of his vocal chords! As an example (other than Ken), Lane Staley had a reputation for immense power that the other musicians could actually *feel* in their chest, particularly during acoustic sets.

[@knitwits1903]

I never psych myself out by thinking about high notes and I relax into it which I think makes it very simple. I think some people strain to reach high notes because they think about it coming up. I totally agree with you. Go Bri.👊
