The Vocal Bridge - A Rocky and Twisty Road

A discussion about taking your time trying to travel along the twisty road of the vocal bridge. It’s fraught with danger, is much much harder to navigate than the rest of the voice. Careful you don’t fall off, and don't drive too fast!
A fresh and detailed look at the trickiest part of your voice.

    I've said it before, and I'm going to say it again because I appreciate it. You are so considerate with helping us understand what's going on with the voice and great at thoroughly explaining it. I've watched a lot of music teachers online and they all say great stuff but they always seem to leave out nuances here and there. You seem to make sure you're explaining this and that and how this and that affect this and that. You come off as very relatable and bring up what you felt when you were learning to sing. Which helps understand the struggle and is comforting.

    Thanks so much ! Well, I just can’t help it. It’s how my brain works. I’m glad it helps ! And something drives me to find a way to break down what students need to grasp in detail. I don’t know! Thanks 🙏

    Definitely a rocky road... I am guilty of trying to drive too fast and going off the side, too. Great video as always :)

    Very few people can make this highly nuanced topic as clearly understandable as you can, it all just makes perfect sense and yet is presented in an informal, relaxed way. I’m now going to force myself to loiter on and around those pesky bridge notes, rather than just rapidly sirening through them as quickly as possible! 🤪

    Here's a question: I tend to have any easier time singing strong and on pitch towards the top of my range (say, C#4-G4), but as soon as it gets a little lower and less "intense" things tend to sound really "weak" and I have a much harder time with pitch. I tend to go flat slightly on those mid-rangy notes, and my higher notes are often closer to pitch. Any thoughts would be great!

    Good luck being heard over blaring instruments with this approach. Honestly, if you're doing rock or any high intensity genre, classical training is your friend.

    In ear monitors! And they must turn down. I didn’t mean to suggest I was dissing classical vocal training at all! It is indeed your friend .
