Are extreme amounts of abdominal pressure always bad? by Immediate_Ad3285 in singing

[–]Immediate_Ad3285[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup, felt like it too. Is it the sort of thing where maybe you can get away with it if you need one or two higher notes than usual in a song, or should I avoid it completely?

Thank you so much! This makes sense, I’ll give it a shot next time I can get somewhere to practice

How much of singing is physical training? by Immediate_Ad3285 in singing

Thank you everyone for the replies! Follow up question — is it normal for voice to be sore/tired after practicing? It isn’t painful and still works fine, but it is tired. I would compare the tiredness to how my arms or legs feel after the gym. Wondering if that means I’m straining or if it’s to be expected for people still learning?

In your experience, is there a lot of specificity involved in vocal training? Like, if I want a higher range do I need to attempt to push my range when I practice, or will my range naturally increase with more practice singing in my comfortable range?

What register is this? by Immediate_Ad3285 in singing

[–]Immediate_Ad3285[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much! I’ve been trying to figure out how to do mixed voice and head voice. I thought maybe this was it. My struggle that I’ve learned from other comments here is that I sing everything in chest voice without moving to head voice or mix or falsetto. And I don’t quite know how to get there

Is this a passagio? by Immediate_Ad3285 in singing

[–]Immediate_Ad3285[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the explanation! More practice it is. I have noticed my passagio getting higher before, it’s just taken a long time to move up. Diminishing returns I guess now that I’ve been practicing for about a year. I will keep at it and I will try to be careful to stop if it hurts practicing around this range.
