Being a singer and currently studying vocal performance (opera) in college, I can tell you that open does not always mean relaxed. I STRUGGLED with soo much jaw tension and part of that was because I grew up watching singers sing like that. The biggest key about reducing jaw tension is the breath support and your core. They are directly related, so if your core isnt working, you have to compensate... which, for me, was my jaw

There is SO MUCH MISINFORMATION about opera/classical singers because it's in the spotlight now. I'm just so glad you're here! I'm a light lyric coloratura, and I absolutely love creating jaw tension by over extending especially on pure "ah" vowels. It is something I still have to consciously think about. I find more space in my dome and very slightly by opening my jaw a bit more (but the space is mostly above my shelf/cheeks) when I'm warming up from C6 - F6. I find it easier to not create as much space when I'm sing that high and just singing a pure rounded vowel like a laser beam as you said. I think of vowels like golden snitches.: )

You don't really need to "get good at opera" as you put it to play the part of Christine. That is, at the end of the day, musical theatre. So you need to work on your range if you are not already doing so but don't push your limits until your voice, and you, are ready.

PHAAAANNNNNTOMMMMM OFFFFFFF THEEEEE OPERAAAAAAAA i really like the point of no return

What you said is so very true! I couldn’t agree more 💗 I’ve just started Opera and Classical signing and I’m a high soprano. My voice is so similar to yours, it’s very light and bright and I feel like I can literally “fly” on very high notes. I love it! My previous teacher told me I should have darkened my voice, forcing my jaw to open in a very unnatural way and it felt horrible. I’m so happy my new teacher is encouraging me to express myself in the most safe and authentic way, letting my voice be just as it is. She told me exactly what you said in this video ☺️ Thank for sharing your precious experience 🌌🎶💗

Absolutely love your channel.😊🙏

I don’t know if you know him but my grandfather is Matteo Manuguerra which was an Opera singer ( he died before I was born ). My grandmother, which had a very powerful link with me through music, died a few months ago and I just feel the need to learn Opera so I will feel closer to my family and to my grandparents :). Again thank you so much for your videos !

Hi. First of all keep up the good work on the videos these are the only ones I've come across that help budding opera singers. I would like to know how much of your advice applies to Tenors especially the upper register tutorials? Thanks Steve

Im brazilian in love with ur videos! I also follow Natalia Aurea! Keep doing this amazing musical contribution for us!

This is vague misinformation, I’m an opera singer myself. No offense to this video, I’m saying this out of the love of singing. If any of you are serious about learning how to sing it’s simple. Anyone can do it with hard work and patience! 1) learn how to take a deep breathe on command (like how you do when you’re preparing to fall asleep). Then learn how to exhale (like you’ve taken a big yawn and you’re slowly breathing out. Naturally allow your ribs to relax). 2) You must develop the voice!! Like you develop your biceps. Simply learn to sing everything using the muscle groups you use for talking. First chest muscles (thyroid arytenoid). Then you will be able to learn to lighten that chest voice and sing with Head voice muscles (cricothyroid). Believe me, I’ve learned to sing with the placement technique and it was very harsh and stressful for my voice. Now I sing using these muscle groups and I sound free and in control. 3) Most importantly listen to the right singers, people who didn’t shy away from using their whole voice (dimitrova, Obrastova, del Monaco, ponsella, etc) to get an understanding of how those notes should sound. You should never sound like Kermit the frog, or feel like your have a big poop. Must be learned in this order for optimal results.

I'm a soprano, but I can't really hit notes above the bar. Or I can hit notes up to G#6 (or makes noise), but anything above G5 starts hurting my throat, and they have no vibrato but they're not breathy either. I know I have a lot of tension in my throat, but I just can't seem to get rid of it. And I have been taking voice lessons many years and thought that now is the time to start practicing high notes (I've always been afraid of them) but no matter what I do they sound and feel horrible. I lift my soft palate, I open my jaw, I (try to) relax and open the throat, I try to support more, I sing in the mask, but nothing really works, they're still awful. What's the problem? :((

it sounds like the main thing is when you’re trying to hit those notes, you’re clenching your throat because of the fact that you’re afraid of them and I actually had this same problem which is why I thought I was an alto my whole life (I’m actually a first soprano, go figure). something that worked for me was while singing those high notes, I would squat or shake my hand in front of my face or anything that took my mind off the notes so my vocal cords would relax on their own. just keep doing that until you’re comfortable with them and then to add vibrato you need more breath support and expansion in the diaphragm area. if you’re still taking voice lessons then ask your teacher for more tips because if they’ve been with you for a long time they may know what works best for you

Great voice. Would be great to hear more singing.
