From Hollywood's Top Coach: Advanced Vibrato Techniques

[@gavinleighton]

I've studied with Roger Love in LA. He's a very talented and gifted teacher, and after many years of studying voice, Roger made the biggest difference with my voice. The results were immediate. Really grateful for him.

[@Prior2Popular]

Factsss I literally looked up this video because my vibrato sounds like a goat and I want it FIXED 😂

[@melindaaziz8570]

Roger Love is excellent and so friggin funny. I’m cracking up most of the video.

[@bepnewyork-hathan426]

I really appreciated & like your explanation. It’s straightforward to the point , not wasting time. Will follow up with you definitely

[@kalerhabib6990]

i will be honest. iam a good singer but always missed vibrato. u helped me answer those deep questions. thanku sir

[@arxsyn]

I really love singers with a very resonant, full, wide vibrato. The effect is beautiful and they're not straining as in a belt. Like Lianne la Havas, Yukimi Nagano and Amber Mark. I just melt whenever hear that. oooh my god.

[@shahinfaghih1021]

Hello dear.your training is so useful I am so grateful to you❤

[@themindset_fitnesstheminds6210]

Thank you for sharing

[@RogerLoveVocals]

Thanks for watching!

[@DihelsonMendonca]

Some years ago, I could not do vibrato. Now, I can make only on long notes. Thank you for that advice that when a person works more, he ( she ) can put on small words.

[@davidnguyen1150]

This part : Sounds like a machine gun. He killed me. lool

Thank you! 💗💗

[@RogerLoveVocals]

Thank you for that very kind comment. I appreciate you.

[@sebastianschmidt6136]

You sound like one of the radio hosts in GTA Vice City :o Great video

[@mhillis777]

Good stuff. Thank you. Just want to say that I think there are exceptions and it is such a subjective thing. Joan Baez, during her peak (Diamonds and Rust ) had such an amazing voice. She had tamed her vibrato only a little, and her voice had mellowed some. I don't know if hers was "shotgun" or natural but I could listen for hours. That said, people either loved it or...they didn't.

[@RogerLoveVocals]

Music appreciation is by nature very subjective isn't it? Thanks so much for your comments!

❤❤❤❤

[@lLadyAszneth]

My ALL-TIME favorite singer, well trained and has an excellent vibrato to go with his Angelic voice is: MICHAEL CRAWFORD! I could listen to only HIS singing for the rest of my days and be perfectly happy! 😍💘💘💋💋💋

[@ronrobbins2737]

Wonder if you've checked out the otherworldly incredible young "Russian" singer named Dimash?

[@lLadyAszneth]

@@ronrobbins2737 - I have and while he is surely talented, I find him a bit overrated. I've attempted to listen to quite a number of his recordings and found he's not to my tastes.

[@ronrobbins2737]

@@lLadyAszneth of course everything about music is a matter of taste! But from a professional vocalist and voice coach viewpoint, You might enjoy seeing several of the reaction videos on KZbin of professionals hearing him for the first time. Technically speaking there’s no one like him.

[@007bettyswollocks]

sheep= tremolo; quick variation in volume (as opposed to pitch for vibrato)

[@DihelsonMendonca]

*But how to produce that DEAN MARTIN really fast vibrato ? Is he doing on the same note or what ?*

[@ren7ee]

Is the tongue supposed to be raised towards the soft palate? My tongue does that.

[@stvp68]

Bruno Mars? I want to sound like Ramin Karimloo or Nick Adams or Gavin Creel!

[@keithvinceriche]

I thought it was Mark Cuban when I saw the thumbnail 😂

[@zenobibonsai]

Ok to all those people watch notice how he is teaching this vibrato ABOVE THE NOTE - which is so unnatural - Now do yourself a favour Jump to 10:02 and slow the play speed of this video to 0.5 and listen to the vibrato - Comment what you hear ABOVE? or BELOW? - my work here is done!

[@montexan1405]

Get back in the field with the rest of the sheep! 😂😂

[@Ginn823]

Who woulda thought he was a System Of A Down impersonator!!!😂😂😂

[@lLadyAszneth]

Sound like Ariana? Uhm, NO! I'm shooting for something more along the lines of Adele, or better yet; Sarah Brightman when she began singing with Michael Crawford in Phantom (or Claire Moore, Sarah's original understudy). Heck, I'd LOVE my vibrato to be more like his and Sarah's or maybe even Sierra Boggess or a singer with classical training. I am already a classically trained pianist, so I am ready for technique I may not have learned before. 😀👍

[@RogerLoveVocals]

Love your vision. The same techniques I use with speakers and pop singers still apply, but it sounds like you could progress to advanced tactics quickly. Best of luck! If you'd like to explore 1:1 coaching, email [e-mail].

[@lLadyAszneth]

@@RogerLoveVocals - HA! Thank you Mr. Love. I've been looking for a vocal coach for awhile now but I haven't had one since my highschool days, that ended in 1988, and I am not sure what may currently be in vogue for teachers now. But ohboy my teacher back then who "didn't expect much, just perfection" beat us over the head with the importance of basics like breath control sure but also clear diction and enunciation, that ended up naturally applying to my speech patterns eventually because I don't like not being understood, clearly! Thank you. Michael is my all-time favorite classically trained singer and I'm sure my voice -could- be as great as his or Sarah's who shared the same instructor: Ian Adam. I appreciate your reply and I definitely need help, so if I can't find someone locally to connect with, I may indeed be contacting you, but I've also been thoroughly enjoying your content HERE and appreciate it a great deal. I've put my own dreams on hold long enough and need to pickup where I once left off. 🙂

[@rihannaimvu8834]

My vibrato looks like a u

[@RogerLoveVocals]

Did this help?

[@Brancaalice]

@@RogerLoveVocals yes

[@grahamcmusic]

So much inaccuracy including even the definitions Vibrato as he says is a slight change of pitch and tremolo which he doesn't refer to as such (as far as I recall) is a change in pressure which in effect is a pulsing and can have its place Not an uncontrollable sheeps meh he speaks of What he does with his "stomach" (oh dear) is in fact a form of pulsing and not vibrato so that in fact this is just mixed up nonsense No wonder singers are confused because so many teachers also are And they have learned from inaccurate confusing teachers On the subject of vibrato it should be used with taste and musicality for example in one long vowel sometimes none/ sometimes fast/ sometimes slow and most importantly varied to best express the song One possibility could be: on a long note start none /middle gaining speed and width? ending with slow and minimising the width of the vibrato and quite likely also a diminuendo It is not normally an on/off switch How is this so hard?

[@ren7ee]

I think it should be used wherever it sounds good. Also, he used the stomach exercise just as a way to feel the sensation of air on the palate, as he said.

[@Brancaalice]

@@ren7ee Yes, it was a demonstration, where the all sounds come from.

[@Brancaalice]

For me, that want to learn free my voice, he is great. Besides that im not singer, only in shower there nobody hear.

[@ronrobbins2737]

In the history of popular singing, I'll wager that not one successful vocalist has ever learned vibrato using any of these insane stomach manipulations. Also note that not one popular singer has a vibrato that moves UPWARD from the main pitch; it relaxes DOWNWARD, just as Roger's did in his demo. Why oh why does the "vibrato" subject turn so many teachers' brains to jelly, we wonder?

[@ronrobbins2737]

Very good question, but isn't it amazing how few modern coaches for contemporary styles even have a clue how to teach it? Also notice in Roger's own short vibrato-demo, he goes flat from the main pitch? Ouch!

[@stone8193]

Ron Robbins what's more amazing is how most teachers know nothing about the physiology of singing. "Sing from the diaphragm". Ok, but the diaphragm just pulls air into the lungs and can't be controlled

[@Clepticomet]

Because vibrato is more naturally developed than something people practice specifically on... Thats what im beginning to suspect after years of trying and getting nowhere

[@ronrobbins2737]

no, don't let all these crazy "tips" complicate the issue! about 5% of teachers around here are actually helpfully teaching what EVERYONE can easily learn!

[@ronrobbins2737]

Stone [石のドラム] Yes but can be very entertaining and hilarious
