How To Sing High Notes

The question of how to sing high notes is one of the questions most asked by amateur and even professional singers. It is a skill that eludes many good singers. Many continually strain their voice as they try to push their chest voice harder and harder while in pursuit of those extra few notes. Is this you? What is not realized is that this technique or lack there of, is more likely to reduce their range than increase it. The key to signing high notes, thus expanding your range is in developing your mix.

The mix or mixture voice is the part of your range where you find the connecting notes of your chest voice and head voice. You know, that area of your voice where your vocal chords seem to just flap open into a breathy falsetto as if you were practicing your yodeling skills. Fortunately, through proper exercises and practice, you can strengthen the appropriate support muscles along with learning to relax your larynx into a perpetual neutral position. This will allow you to sing through your bridge, connecting your chest voice and head voice.

Unnecessary application of force on your throat, while trying to sing high notes is the reason for the fatigue and stress that you may have feel. You are incorporating the muscles around your larynx (voice box) that are designed to move your larynx out of the way when you swallow. If you put your hand on your larynx and swallow; you will notice that your larynx shoots up under your chin and thus cuts of the flow of air and sound. That is simply counter productive to a full and flowing vocal range. You will find it difficult if not impossible to reach your vocal range potential if you consistently sing with a high larynx position.

There are special vocal training exercises that train and even trick the voice into bridging the gap between the registers. Instead of keeping the pedal down as you ascend in your vocal register, you must learn to shift gears, making it all quite easy as you are able to relax your throat, jaw and of course, vocal chords. After you learn to incorporate this mix of chest and head, it is just a matter of thickening and giving presence to this bridged area of your vocal register.

Music is one of life's most beautiful things and being able to express yourself with your voice, without limitation, is a dream for many.
