So I've been singing quietly at home with my guitar for something like 20 years, just for my own enjoyment. All I've ever had is a straight tone, which sounded bland and unmusical to my ears, so i have never sang in front of anyone. Well holy crap now I have the beginnings of vibrato and my voice is beginning to sound more musical and pleasant. Thank you!

[@NewYorkVocalCoaching]

Wow! Amazing work! -NYVC

Drink ginger tea with honey it will help you sing better

[@justinmetcalfe9948]

When I first started singing I couldn't add vibrato in my notes at all and about two years of working on it I can finally add a nice steady vibrato. I use all of the types of vibrato that he mentioned. But I mostly rely on my vocal chords to do the work. My advice is just to practice if you're a beginner. It will come more natural the more you practice the better your vibrato will get.

[@justinmetcalfe9948]

***** i was practicing at least every other day. after about a month I could add it to my low notes but not to my belted notes but I can now say that I can add vibrato all the way up to my belted B5

[@MominGuitarTV]

Justin, you're a genius. I did the exercise and now I can literally do vibrato!. Any suggestions on how to make it faster though? Thank you very much for your videos, very informative.

I think staccato leading to vibrato is a great way to increase one's vibrato! are there other techniques that can be used to? thanks Justin!

So I have laryngal vibrato. I want vocal chord vibrato! I can't figure it out. My larynx just goes crazy when I attempt vibrato.

[@gillianomotoso328]

2:15 - that must be why we feel vibrato biologically as a motion, even though the amplitude itself doesn't necessarily change. The cords contract and elongate like a slinky to form an undulating pitch!

[@NewYorkVocalCoaching]

Cool thoughts! 😄 -NYVC

[@challenge0001]

Yes, I stay focus or pay attention to my vocal cords with relaxation then could control it more and easier. And, singing "HE" got little vibration around my uvula. I feel it is good sign for me. Thanks for your Magic again. Well, Saturday night is magic night:)

this is a great video! tbh, i listen to a lot of broadway songs, such as those from the soundtrack of les miserables and miss saigon. and i've noticed that lea salonga, the disney legend, has one of the best vibratos i've ever heard in female singers. i have a vibrato, but it literally is just me shaking my on my diaphragm the entire time, and it's weird lol. unfortunately, my voice is naturally raspy and more deep than miss salonga's, but i've always wanted to learn her vibrato technique. this is the best video i've seen so far, which would help me towards getting a nicer sounding vibrato. thank you so much!

You are great brother Justin! I couldnt reach my vibrato until I've done the exercise - but later found it after trying only once - thanks a lot :) And I also noticed you sweating - I know teaching is hard . GOD bless you for your all the sincere efforts for the coming singers in the world!

[@allyjk]

Yes & I think like me, most of the beginners are trying to push much thats what preventing us from the free vibrato that's produced from the little waves of vocal chords .

Definitely - keep it up . Any kind of singing journey is possible when you're with brother Justin .

Thank you so much, this is exactly the kind of thing I needed. I have an okay vibrato, but I want to go a lot further with it, and it was just as I thought - I sometimes have trouble engaging it for reasons described in this video. It was also nice to pick up a new exercise, because I thought I'd seen all there is for the elements of a good vibrato.

Hi Justin.Im from poland. I'm a big fan of Bon Jovi.and my question is. how Jon Bon Jovi lose his voice over the years. Way he sound in 80' and early 90' compare to today is like totaly diffrent person. And i know from his interview. he was practice bel canto. he had vocal teacher. So what go wrong with his voice, and how people can avoid such a vocal change.

[@leahyodico9818]

This is exactly what I need right now; thank you soooooh much.

[@shirakuyanai4095]

I think I've invented a third type of vibrato: hybrid. Basically I start of with a pitch bend and then pulsate my breath but not by using my stomach but rather by using my vocal chord. (I recorded myself in slomo an no, there's little to no pitch bend after the initial note and no, my stomach doesn't move)

[@NewYorkVocalCoaching]

Cool! Different vibrato types can be combined to create hybrids. Just keep in mind that the vocal folds cannot pulsate breath. And you don't need your abs necessarily to pulsate the breath. Congrats on your discoveries! -NYVC

Vibrato" We hope these help! -NYVC

[@karandas6398]

@@NewYorkVocalCoaching thank you so much ✨

[@cdurkinz]

Every once in a while I can do a vocal cord vibrato like you show in this video, but it is always the slow one you showed. Nothing I seem to do speeds it up. It's very frustrating, but I am going to keep at it. I had quite a few years of voice coaching when I was in private school growing up, it unfortunately wasn't one on one, it was the whole class together, so still better than none and I can sing pretty well.(I think :D) Unfortunately we never really got into vibrato, and this was in grade school (K-8) and so obviously my voice has since changed. (I just turned 30..ahhh) I still really enjoy singing but I'm just missing the vibrato and it drives me crazy lol. Thanks for your videos though Justin, they are awesome and a big help.

[@kurremurre]

Hah! This is exactly the question I've been wondering about lately. Awesome! Now I just need to find a way to wrap my head around healthy heavy metal distortion.

[@drmedwuast]

I'm under the impression that what a vibrato really is in most singers (including Justin) is more of a oscillation of the tonal quality, i.e. of the composition of the overtones than just a plain going up and down with the pitch. Thoughts?

[@heal2hair517]

Writing another comment after trying the exercise in the video. To me it seems like it was immediately helping. Not just with the pitch oscillation but also with the tone blending! I'm not able to do it so fast, because the "attacco" (or "on set" dk how to call it) has to be right on the vocal chords or it won't be precise, resulting poor, not projected and breathy. Makes me think that learning staccato fast would be a key to great singing...and vibrato :D

Is Jackie Evancho using jaw vibrato? I am amazed she says that she doesn't have a voice coach and doesn't plan on having one - she claims that coaches always want to change her voice. How true is that?

[@marcusianaviation9372]

As I do vibrato, I am constantly pushing my chest and stomach inwards to get that vibrato voice. And it feels a little pain after doing it for quite a while. Is it the right way? But I still can sing vibrato, but it is not very fast !

My belly still moves with every he! Is that the throat vibrato or I’m using my breath system? I also have a super fast vibrato that has always been there and I heard they called it goat vibrato! I’m so confused if that’s my natural vibrato because in order to slow down my vibrato I need to try so hard using my belly muscles and it’s even sometimes a wobble unlike the goat vibrato that’s organized.

I am a musician that has studied for a while, but I find it difficult to do staccato this quickly.

(for the record I'm loving these videos!)

[@TonecrafteLuthiery]

The pathetic excuse for a vibrato I can produce came sort of naturally, simply watching other singers and trying to mimick the basic structure of their voice. But it would seem that I'm doing it wrong. It comes from my stomach, and often times I will breath or instinctively flex my abs and the note will sort of glitch, breaking awkwardly at the end. Any tips? If I don't flex the muscles in my stomach I can't really do a vibrato. Do I have to scrap it all together and start over? Oh, and one more thing, I sound very nasal-y whenever I do the head voice, especially on N, Y, and I sounds. It drives me insane. Trouble is that I sound like an Opera singer when I try to incorporate the chest voice, and I can't seem to mix them. I don't quite know why, but it is usually one or the other, or not at all. Again, looking for tips.

Is a fast vibrato a bad sign? I have naturally developed (without any voice lessons) quite a tremolo-like vibrato (it doesn't come forced, I really can't control it much). Some people have said that they really like it, I myself am trying to train myself to have a slower vibrato, but it is quite hard for me.
