This man andhis method of teaching are more than awesome. I am not a musician /singer in anyway, but I listen intently to the instructors and instructions. I have found quite a few that interest me and in my opinion they are good but Dr Hales' teaching, his attitude, demeanor, approach to teaching are outstanding. I can listen over and over. Each time it's more enjoyable that I even practice too because of how much I love music. Thank you .

[@stephenhosking7384]

If you love music and singing then I I strongly recommend that you take lessons. It is a very common misconception that you are either born with a good choice of not. On the contrary singing is taught just like any other instrument. In person lessons are most effective but if you can't afford the time or money then try working with a KZbin program.

[@goldaganeshdin2269]

Thank you Steven, I grew around music but sadly where I am from there weren't many teachers and my parents couldn't afford. Now in my 40s I don't think I 'd want to try. Just that when I listen to the teachers I sometimes get carried away and don't realise I'm doing it . Sometimes I just go along as it's natural for me to hum/sing while doing chores.

[@Sophie-vw5ol]

That's so beautiful. Keep going. It's never to late if it's good for you 😊

Thank you! I've been singing in a church choir but we don't usually do warm ups, and I could feel my skill suffering from that. I knew from my school choir days though that warns ups are great and important, so thank you for this video! I'm glad to be warming up properly again

As I youth in Wheeling WV, I studied under Jack Randolf (church chior) and Dr. Harold Wiesner (classical choir). You are VERY good. As also a vocalist and audio engineer, you are hitting all the bases. Diaphragm, larynx, vocal resonance via mouth and nasal... and training the head upward, and the vowel pronunciations. That is fairly complete. I love what I hear in this video. Very, very well controlled and vocally articulated. Wish I'd have had you as an instructor. I'm now 65 considering returning to solo or choir... I will use your techniques if I pursue vocal performance in my church. Thanks so much. Love your choir. The resonance and harmonics are absolutely perfect.

[@chewlyyummy]

Your teaching methods are scaffolded so well, and I love how you also demonstrated common mistakes! Thanks for this, it's really useful!

The pivot exercise near the beginning was a revelation (and so easy to isolate the points of movement), also the Me Meh Mah Moh Mooo at the end with the gestures - inspired!!! "I Sigh To Sing"

[@datacommunications]

This is great. With huge respect to the two vocal coaches that i've had in my life, this video make much more sense to me. Maybe concepts were more difficult to me - I don't know... It was recommended to me in years gone by to imagine reaching over a fence, in my mind, when warming up and performing. That made little sense to me. Now, this video makes some much more sense, going through pragmatic steps to me; particularly with the center of balance of the spine in relation to the head, body, shoulders, etc. Love it.
