Let's Sing Riffs - Singing Warm Up - Tenor

[@flyhightowers]

I can honestly say JEFF ROLKA has unburdened my friends and family from suffering what I thought was my singing!

[@AllenAndersonTaylor]

I'm 36 and I've always wanted to sing. I'm practicing with you everyday! Thank you.

[@JeffRolka]

If I may say so, you've come to the right place. Don't take my word for it though, work through the videos, practicing a bit every day, and let me know how things go. That being said, if you're new to singing or singing technique, this is a difficult video to start with. It's about more than just hitting the notes. I would suggest you begin here: kzbin.info/aero/PL2mQP7sE6PHg8wjZBjfJ3HGVqjxBF2swE

[@martimpocinho5113]

I love this one! I love riff exercises because they feel a little bit closer to singing in context!

[@virabhadraX]

Still an amazing excercise. I used to practice this every now and then. Thanks Jeff!

[@davidorvin7342]

Thanks!

[@JeffRolka]

Thank you so much for the Super Thanks Support! I greatly appreciate it!

[@YoutubeAbel-d4t]

this is the amazing exercise that i have ever heard of❤❤❤

[@kotosqoposrly]

I really love riffs! Not only the melody is beautiful but it does work on your vibratos.

[@A.JayWeber]

Jeff this video is SO good. I started to tear up. Love it. Thanks for all you do.

[@chadwaronicki8231]

Absolutely love this. Nice palette cleanser from the scales and arpeggios

[@JeffRolka]

Awesome! I just shot number 2 the day before yesterday! It'll be out in a couple of weeks! Jeff

Without any further ado at 0:35 😉 Thanks Jeff! 🐯

[@LeonardoUbago]

I love this video, It feels so emotional, the flow of my voice, thank you su much Jeff. I'd like so much to give you something for this, tell me how to contribute you from Mexico.

[@elbuhocitadino]

GRACIAS JEFF , un abrazo desde COLOMBIA , tus clases son lo mejor.

[@JeffRolka]

De Nada! :-) Jeff

[@rowenfara]

thank you for this! i have an audition in a month and the piece i chose has a couple of riffs in it.

[@MrRicardobotti]

Quick question. How much time before singing should you start warming up? Can I warm up 3/4 hours before singing? And then can I use different warmups just as exercises for the days I do not sing?

[@JeffRolka]

It really depends on your needs. For some, warming up that much in advance might work just fine. For me, it wouldn't be so good. Experiment a bit and see how it suits you. Jeff

[@MrRicardobotti]

@@JeffRolka thanks for taking the time to answer Jeff!!

[@pankajsharma3154]

It's an amazing jeff

[@junaidesse]

Jeff has always been superb. I concur

[@genereybradley]

This is really hard and helpful

[@MC_Elie]

I have a question teacher Rolka. Are you familiar with the Flageolet or flute register? Do you have an exercise to tap in to this register? Thank you so much for all these posted videos.

[@JeffRolka]

Yes, but those would be on soprano videos. I don't title them that way, though some of the extended range videos get to that area. Best, Jeff

[@MC_Elie]

@@JeffRolka I'll check them out, thank you.

[@TomBishop]

A great job :-)

[@WmartinMo]

Is this supposed to be done with one breath, Jeff? Thank you so much!

[@JeffRolka]

You might experiment with where you take your breaths - or - if you take them mid-phrase. Both practices could be helpful in real-world song implementation! Jeff

[@Ashen4]

A new riffs video? Would be much appreciated!

[@JeffRolka]

There have been a few since this was released! Have a look here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/enytopRmZZppaKc kzbin.info/www/bejne/bqaunGyhdt6ebc0 I hope you like them! Thank you for being here! Jeff

[@jdragudo]

I'm a classically trained tenor, but I'm still looking for some techniques and I can say that my singing is not perfect yet. :) thank youuu

[@endergokhancanatan5189]

Thanks thanks jeff, please difrent egzerzise🤛🙏👍

[@ДвитрийЕмельянов]

very good exersises like this could be created by the man of the west only i mean the melodies in the base thank you

[@JeffRolka]

You're welcome! Thank you for your kind words and watching! All the best! Jeff

[@DannyWohl]

G# is when i pass over the passagio, or my voice changes.. Does this make me a baritone or a tenor, does anyone know?

[@JeffRolka]

Thanks for subscribing - it depends on several factors, not the least of which is how your voice is operating before that changeover. For more information about the general ranges of things though, you can find that out here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fach

[@DannyWohl]

@@JeffRolka Thank you so much Jeff! And for everything you do : )
