HOW TO SING INTO YOUR MASK

[@darksidessj25]

Nay and Lah was the best exercise for me. It's buzzes when I get it right but it takes serious practice to get the sound all the time. I been practicing for a month straight about 1-2 hours a day and doing all the vowels with the sound. You can also do NG as well. Almost every SLS exercises is literally trying to teach you how to find your mix/mask voice. I wish teachers would be more straight up and say cry like a baby LOL but that's not a great way to develop the sound. Here is my mix/mask exercise. 1) Ah. 2) Aye. 3) EE. 4)OH. 5)OOH. Each vowel also has modifications. I also do lip trills for 10min prior to this. You can also wrap your mouth around your tongue which is pretty much the same thing as NG. This helps you find placement. Once you get that mixed coordination you got to keep practicing it for muscle memory. This is the magic to sounding freaking amazing while singing. This is the golden ticket to singing any song. You also increase your range to with this bright ping. I grew from a g4 to a d5 in about a month of consistent practice but it could of been from improper singing not allowing me to grow my voice. I also recommend practicing diaphragm breathing as well. This is what truly changed my singing. Breath every time you even attempt a scale! Seriously. Build muscle memory for this. This will change your singing life. You have to have a strong foundation first before attempting finding your mask/mix. The breath is your foundation. You have to control the air flow so you don't blow out the chord.

Useful SLS info thanks, but what really changes your singing life is when your brain doesn't think 'trying to sing' anymore it just thinks well, whatever it thinks when you simply 'talk', then you experience natural singing without tension and the breathing just takes care of itself.

[@joannapierrot2936]

Excellent info. about the tongue wrapped around the mouth, you're right as it has made such a major difference for forward placement, thanks for sharing!

[@mencot89]

hi i know this is old but what do you mean by wrapping your mouth around your tongue? If I cant buzz/ lip trill so much I can hum it is that correct?

[@francescagaudino3124]

This is the only video I've found on youtube where it is REALLY EXPLAINED. The rest of the videos tells you only to practise with "ng" sound but they don't tell you why you have to practise this particular sound: why do they take it for granted? Love you, Freya ❤

I have been trying so hard to get my face in my head to resonate and I’m gonna have a super super hard time doing that for some reason. The chewing and the.Gung we’re super helpful. You were in the higher part of the range. I’m a tenor you were in the higher part of the range for part of those exercises so became very difficult for me. But… It vibrated in my head! Bravo! Thank you, thank you, thank you

[@jamieb7342]

I can't feel the buzzing or vibrations yet. I'll keep practicing. Thank you!

[@catherinesmith5421]

i cannot express how grateful i am that you made this video! it helped me loads!!! thank you!!!

[@tomtuduc8227]

Wow, keeping the U throat shape while doing the 'cow' mooing is EXCELLENT. This send sounds to the mask.

You`re so kind and soft and nice person! I love that!

How to cover your chest voice with head voice on passaggio?

[@cd-en9zp]

Thank you for this amazing video, very helpful ! ^^ I finally understood what was holding me back, and the exercices really help !

[@javierrenesolis4764]

Helllooo ! My mask is still buzzing! 🎉 Thanks ! 🙏

[@Olesia_Kurilo]

Should we sing in the mask all the time? Even when we sing low notes too?

[@darshna.]

Singing low notes through chest works better for me tho!

[@chiyokoyamasato]

I can't feel it vibrating.. could you do a video for detailed frontal resonance practices for beginner?

[@physicallyrandom5635]

Wow 🤩 thank you for sharing the tips master freya 😁👍

[@goldenultra]

I feel some buzzing more on the top of the nose than the cheek bones. Another good video.

[@ReubenWalton]

Is this also applicable to singing pop music?

[@VIDEOHEREBOB]

Always great.

Speaking of "mask", do you have any special advice on singing with a surgical mask on😷." I sing solo (for small open-air family & business get-togethers) or in a choir (in church) in these pandemic times. Or just sing the usual way? It would be terrific help. Thanks.

[@goldenultra]

Maybe the mask can add resonance, and filter certain frequencies.

[@dwheel39]

Singing with a mask is unhealthy and dehumanizing. Sing freely like a human being.

[@dennisagbayani3327]

@@dwheel39 sing freely like a DEAD human being when you get CoVid Delta variant. Brilliant idea!

[@greenfrog6449]

Why on earth would you sing wearing a mask? You'd be better off putting a paper bag over your head.

[@trunghuynhvlog7697]

Great ! Thanks!

[@ЛедиИрматова]

I only feel the buzzing and vibration around my nose and cheeks

[@goldenultra]

U r probably doing the exercise better than me. I guess you have to raise your voice level.

[@tokkia1384]

Sometimes when I sing it feels like all the sound is going into one ear 😂

[@knowglobal-Redwoman]

great!!

[@marycallen8428]

Is there any difference between mixed voice and masking?

[@callasoperafangirl]

Mixed voice is like you're mixing your registers so that your voice can have that mask effect and the placement gets better I'd say the mask is more like the placement that makes your voice resonate better and by improving your placement and also by mixing the registers especially in classical singing you get like a more blended placement that also resonates better, hope that makes sense!!

[@likitadevi]

I need a 'How to escape your mask' video. 😂

[@sumokem]

🤣🤣🤣 cannot. no one can 😅

[@loiswood2526]

I feel it on my left side, more than on the right side of my face. How can I even things out?

[@shaneed]

rotate your head in every possible angle while keeping the neck and face muscles relaxed and feel on which angle the sound gets unblocked. Once you found the angle, you practice on that. I

[@goldenultra]

Message the right cheek in circular motions with your hand, then fill you mouth with air like a balloon hold it, then relax.

[@wadebond7679]

Ironically they made a toy that mimics this sound

[@tamirlyn]

Don't do this. You risk losing the chest core of the voice. With it, the clarity of pronunciation tends to go also.

[@paramikaasingla2434]

Do we have to raise our soft palate also for this ?

[@MW-lw5mn]

Please don't try to sing in the mask. As Corelli said, no one of the old singers did anything like that. The only things that produce a tone/voice are the vocal cords. Above them, there is room in your throat and mouth to increase the tone, though old singers sometimes hardly even opened their mouths, yet they still produced so much sound inside of their throat/neck/mouth. In the nose and the little hollow spaces inside of the skull aren't any vocal cords or other stuff that could produce sound. The room inside there is also by no means big enough to increase any tone in that sense so that it would be heard any better. Below the neck/the larynx isn't room for the voice to grow/resonate either. Air comes up from down there and then only produces sound in this upside direction when squeezing through the vocal cords. So besides needing to develop squillo in your vocal cords, you need to work your trunk muscles, that press onto your lungs to push out as much air as possible. Mario Del Monaco could be seen pulling back his shoulders and really pushing onto his lungs from all sides, using the muscles in his trunk. The only reason why you would feel anything at certain exercises in that certain area of your head, is, that soundwaves of course make vibrations and can even be felt as tickling or vibrating sometimes. But that doesn't mean, that there is any tone produced or increased inside of there.
