Reposted from @earlharvillemuzic One of my favorite exercises right now is the 'Boy' syllable. It's got that great plosive consonant to start then using a tripthong (oh-oo-ee) to keep us from grabbing as we ascend into our higher range. It can be challenging at first, especially if there's tension around the lips. The more you practice it, though, you will get a better feel of balance between how much muscle (vocal folds) versus the amount of air needed (very little). Give it a shot and let me know what you think.

Nothing like a pandemic to throw a wrench into your routine, right? Many of us are finding ourselves with a bunch of free time right now. You could always use it to work more on your craft. GO PRACTICE!! Here is a great exercise to develop great balance of air and vocal fold tension. My favorite - The 'NG'. If you'd like to book a lesson, I am offering a '2020 Needs To Be Recalled Because It Sucks' special of $10 off the regular session price.

Quite phlegmy today. So I am using this gallop-like 'uh' syllable on a two octave arpeggio pattern. Helps to shake some of the gunk loose while working on cord closure and evenness of scale. 🎤🎼🎵 #earlharvillevox #trainingthevocalathlete #voiceteacher4life #ivtom #vocalgeek #mixsinging #mixtechnique #sing4yourlife #gayvocalcoach #vocaltraining #voicelessons https://www.instagram.com/p/B7j1e4ppIiO/?igshid=1p2u5jtc5s0ah

Reposted from @earlharvillemuzic (@get_regrann) - Get some semi-occluded vocal tract exercises done today, singers. The hum/tongue stretch combo is one of my favs. Watch the demonstration then explanation of its benefits as a warmup, cooldown, and refresher of the voice. 🎶🎤 #trainingthevocalathlete #voiceteacher4life #ivtom #vocalgeek #mixsinging #mixtechnique #sing4yourlife #singing #singers #voiceteacher4life #gayvocalcoach #bassbaritone #baritenor #countertenor - #regrann https://www.instagram.com/p/B5WG-HohiZ_/?igshid=iv49i9cqjw1d

My students know that I am a great fan of the 'NG' sound as a vocal warmup and stabilizer. It's another one of the semi-occluded vocal tract exercises, which I simply call 'Strechies' for my young students. Here, I demonstrate on the 2 octave scale. 🎤🎶🎼 #trainingthevocalathlete #voiceteacher4life #ivtom #vocalgeek #mixsinging #mixtechnique #voicelessons #vocaltraining #vocalcoach #gayvocalcoach #singers #earlharvillevox https://www.instagram.com/p/B4kzOGRhi5U/?igshid=1c5yhgxma2c5i
