Tenor Jack Livigni, explains four major components and foundational skills of singing a high notes

[@Genetaylormusic]

Gosh this brings me such joy to see a CLEAR explanation and demonstration that isn't just metaphors

[@DallasChamberChoir]

The best, most efficient tenor high note explanation and demonstration ever. Bravo 👏 and thank you! 🙏🏼

[@turbofreddy]

How many teachers can actually sing WELL the stuff they so precisely teach? Not many! Jack is a treasure!

[@TB-ky7de]

The person filming’s sigh at 2:47 was so resonant with me. I’m studying to become a professional singer and that sigh was an all encompassing: ‘Oh another thing I have to think about and fix’. I so felt that.

The man is a treasure

[@tejafromspain]

The best short for tenor voice ever 👏👏👏

[@HawkEye40]

Absolutely

[@Forever.and.a.day.singing]

Jack, I took lessons from one of your students a few years back and I personally felt he was trying to get me to compress too much. I have since started studying with a different individual who has helped open up what I believe you are trying to get at in regards to keeping the muscles soft in the high notes. I cannot stress this enough. It comes from falsetto but there is such a fine line between the falsetto sustained squillo and the chesty compression that is heavy. It's literally like learning to whistle from the falsetto with lots of flow and then slowly lowering the larynx (tilt). The sound is literally placed above and back like Jack is saying and it will feel like there is a lot less presence than there actually is. Once trained by someone who knows what they are doing the sound will be a lot bigger when you hear the recording vs what you are feeling when you are singing.

This is one of the BEST lessons I've ever seen in order to achieve high notes. Period... Hundreds of videos, lots of teachers, but.. I've never found so much truth in such a short amount of time. Brilliant

[@ilovedyouforsomanyreasons]

This video got me remembering a video from Angelo Lo Forese, explaining exactly that. Brilliant!

[@takitube74]

We have a saying among ourselves, collegues, that it is not enough to love your profession, you have to master it. Well, this gentleman knows how to do it, for sure, and equally important, that he has talent for teaching, too. Bravo!

[@johnthetenor]

Excellent demonstration and insights here. 👑

[@Roquea.207]

This video is gold

[@jeffwang3584]

How clear the treasure is❤❤❤

[@the0v0man]

I’m so glad I found this. It sits well in my mind. I will practice this

[@goodhomeplan]

Wow! Brillant teacher!

[@RicardoMarlowFlamenco]

1:35…pretty much no vocal coach online has ever made this sound that I have come across….and most likely cuz most don’t actually know how to do that.

[@SANDSILV]

Excellent explanation ! Bravo !!!

[@1000-flowers]

Is this for head voice ? Can I use mix voice with this too?

[@deinstimmbildner]

Amazing Jack! Thanks! ❤

[@Dynamofoe]

This is awesome thank you! But as a long term rock singer I find it hard to get out of chest/throat into that head/nasal area… 50 years old and trying to change and get “lighter” - any thoughts/tips?

[@Fulleman]

When you sing - close nose with fingers- sound must not change, if its in nose - bad. Dont expect high notes to resonate in your body - they will be in front off you. Cords must touch very slightly... as butterfly wings. Air always go down when you sing, the more tone up - the more air down :)

[@evertonamorim23]

Never saw such a practical explanation! 🤌🤌

[@joannecuomo1312]

The best at explaining!

[@rickiekoala6313]

❤ thank you so much

Great demonstration!

[@SiggeSvahn]

Wonderfully explained.

[@freddygodoy0772]

Genial!!! gracias Maestro

[@ChrisVanLiew]

Crazy how few views this has

[@djabthrash]

I don't know about the explanations but I'm pretty sure just imitating the sound he does will get you a long way for your vocal journey. NB : and for vocal styles that go way beyond just "opera" and high clean notes

[@edwynworld7096]

GRAZIE Maestro!

[@Alex.M.T.S]

Great info!

[@cantabenegio6758]

Vecchia Scuola Italiana ~ fantastico ~~!!

[@spiritualityandscience]

Thanks, totally perfect !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@Christofellis88]

Is it the same for alto and soprano voices?

[@acasaization]

Beautiful 😊

[@yonathansuissa8814]

How come the epiglottis is down? Wouldn't it block the air ways like when you swallow food?

[@Piotr-d7q]

Thank you 👋

[@william91786]

Just subscribe! Great explanations of technique. Can you tell us what Salvatore Fisichella was telling you in the "Salvatore Fisichella teaching Jack LiVigni" when he is pushing on your chest?

[@relaxingmusicbutterflycinema]

❤❤❤❤

[@すずきふみよ]

I have hard time to sing high note and also my breath do not last long.

[@st14]

💥💥🔥

[@VenusLover17]

[@ilecier]

How can you sing a single note with the cords closed? The moment you release air to produce a tone, cords will inevitably open to let the air theough.....

[@arnaudm.8155]

The explanations are far from being accurate on the scientific level (what is demonstrated is not always what is explained) but damn, it sounds fantastic and it is truly efficient. This is a nice video !

[@mosmediterraneanopera4905]

Always open to learning. Please explain.

[@danielkavanagh9982]

He's changing the vowel sound from ah to uh.... Most teachers never tell you about the modification of the vowel sound... Makes it easier to hit the higher notes lol

[@Celatra]

the modification comes naturally once you have developed a perfect transition past the passagio.

[@RicardoMarlowFlamenco]

It is more than that…at 2:35 he makes it clear “uh” can be wrong as well. It is the mechanism that is important, NOT the vowel.
