Thanks for this video...I have 2 years studing vocal technique, but i feel that there are days that the boice souns really free and natural and can achieve the higer notes with not difficult, but maybe at the other day I can't sing..my voice is heavy and cannot achive higer notes...Is that normal??? It drives me crazy!

@tonato17 Have you solved this yet? In general, if your voice is so sporadic, there's something going on in the body. Never try to just jump into singing. Always stretch and breath, get yourself in your body, before trying to sing. It's possible you slept in a way that put tension where you don't want it and it's getting in the way. You also could be dehydrated, etc. And if it's not one of those, it's a confidence thing. If you sing and think "I'm having a bad voice day" then you'll have one.

I have a question. Are you sure that head voice for men start at F4? I notice when I sing it starts a lot sooner like an octive. Is it because my lack of chest voice in my voice or is it chest voice with more head "Resonance"? (I am a male.)

[JohnScott551]

There are some variations on where the bridge between chest and head voice occur, but generally it's within two half steps of F4. So if you're switching to head voice at F3, it's probably falsetto.

That's a great lesson!!!!!!!!!!

There are 3 types of male voices: bass, baritone, tenor. Dramatic tenors (or some rare types of baritone voice) will transition into the head at F4. All other baritone and bass voices will transit into head voice earlier (D4-E4). Lyric tenors will transition points at G4. You can refer to some of Richard Millers books (some of it has table of primo and secondo passaggio points - transition point from chest to mix and from mix to head voices)
