    In my opinion it is not the online medium that is the limitation. If a teacher is able to listen right and identify the root problem, the medium is not a barrier. I have been teaching online for a decade and helped several students fix their vocal technique. A good understanding of technology as well can help improve the audio and video quality in online classes.

Unfortunately, I was not able to complete it till today, because of this issue. Recently, my teacher, whom I met after several years, taught me to use my head voice. Now, I have started to practise again. I hope that one day I will be able to sing excellently.

    I strained and struggled exactly the way you showed at the very beginning, Pratibha. Then came the European concept of singing 'falsetto'. Accepting that caused a real impediment. Without anyone ever saying I should, I stopped singing and listening to tuneful melodies. Music was a cherished hobby till then. Now I hope to correct my misconception, practice well and enjoy singing once again. Very grateful ❤, Pratibha. Thank you 🙏🏾. It is an answer to a prayer.

    In carnatic music, it's very unlikely that you would be able to sing in your head voice. I have taken carnatic music for years and I never used head voice singing carnatic music. Now in Hindustani music, you can try to mix your chest voice and your head voice. But you would need to know how to do this transition smoothly and with more subtlety and that is where a good guru is needed for guidance on how to do this. So that u can sound like one voice all the way through whatever you are singing. For example in a bhajan, an abhang, a ghazal, a rabindra sangeet composition, a film song etc.. You can probably try to mix chest voice with head voice in pure Hindustani classical also provided your guru shows the proper technique to do it and your guru allows it.. I know this because I have also taken Hindustani music for many years and in taar saptak, ( upper octave) there is a possibility to learn how to use your head voice instead of your chest voice as this avoids straining and your voice cracking. Western music definitely allows mixing of both chest voice and head voice. I have learnt western classical and western pop also.

    Could you explain the difference between the head voice and false voice a bit more ? For the longest time I also used to think that they are the same and have always felt guilty about using the head voice while singing hindustani classical, even though that meant cracking my voice completely just after 30 minutes of practising the high notes. I have always been discouraged to use that thin voice and use the more open chest voice instead. I used to think that it is the limitation of my vocal range that I can't reach those high notes with my chest voice with ease and that I need more practice to achieve that. It is reassuring to know that using the head voice in indian classical is not a sin.

    False voice (falsetto) is more of an airy and breathy sound which is used in a different context primarily in western music. Head voice on the other hand is more powerful with a richer timbre. However when you are initially trying to find your head voice, you may end up singing in this breathy tone which is why some people find it unnatural. But it's important to keep working through this until you find your complete head voice. Until then it's okay even if it sounds breathy for a while. But at any cost, don't let your voice get strained or cracked by forcing the chest voice on the full range. Remember, the biggest stalwarts of classical music actively use the head voice and the thin tone can be heard in their renditions. Infact it is that tone that helps achieve effortless singing and a pleasant sound. Try to observe and imbibe that along with the technique I have mentioned here.

    This is the biggest problem in both Hindustani music and carnatic music. I am a singer and I have been learning both styles for years together. Most gurus pick the wrong shruthi or wrong sur for a student to sing and this puts lot of strain on the voice which isn't good. And as a result, the student struggles. The student either ends up shouting and screaming to reach high notes or is struggling to reach high notes. This is exactly what happens. It doesn't matter how many alankaras, swaravali exercises is practiced in carnatic music or how many sargam exercises or alankars is practiced. Each one of us has a limited range in the voice and sometimes singing in thara sthayi in carnatic music or in taar saptak in Hindustani music in full chest voice is just not possible for prolonged periods of time. My Hindustani guru always recommends me to do my riyaz(sadhakam) in a comfortable sur ( comfortable shruthi)and to sing whatever raags I have learnt in my comfortable sur. (I usually sing in sur A for Hindustani music and shruthi G for carnatic music). My Hindustani guru, usually when she gets a new student, she will first test out their range and see how high and how low they can go. ( If it's a female student it's usually Khali chaar or Khali paanch) and if it's a male student it's usually Khali ek and Khali dho) ( So black 4, black 5, black 1, or black 2 on the harmonium) In carnatic music, females usually sing shruthi G, G sharp and very rarely A. Males, usually sing, C, C sharp, D or D sharp Here most gurus assume that the selected shruthi will work for the student. But that is not always the case. It's a good idea to first test out the range of the student first and see how high and how low the student can go and then decide on the shruthi. Of course, it can always be changed and modified.

    May be training would help but in the end,not every voice can be trained for singing.That is the reason why not every one is a singer.Beyond a point if things don't improve,stop training and enjoy others singing.Should not feel bad.
