Hi Rob, I'm a male with a fairly low based voice.I'm having a problem with my transition point, I've been been doing lip rolls and now I can do a passagio but I'm changing register at Bflat4 which is way to low, but when I get up to an E4 I'm straining like hell so i can't change register near there. Also, even when I get into a middle/low head voice, If I put power on it, I get loads of vocal fry on it.

I live in england so I can't see your for lessons, so have you any advice?

Thanks

@MissusMetalFace You simply need to learn how to stop belting so high... thats the start. Then you need to rebuild the head voice with the TVS techniques. Once you learn the techniques and then get after your training, you will begin to bridge nicely beyond E4 and have no strain what so ever. Really, you can do it, it just takes training and practice. Purchase a copy of "The Four Pillars of Singing" 2.0 and train with me over the internet. I have a lot of internet students from the UK.

That was really good. Tomorrow when I can get loud I'll have to see if I'm really as good as I think I am on this song or if I'm in falsetto and I'm deluding myself!

Wait a minute! 425 area code! You are in the Seattle area? Oh wait, I'm unemployed and broke, so nevermind! :) Where are you guys located??

[roblunte]

@StratMatt777 Yes, we are located in Seattle, WA USA... go check out the web site.

If 'ryche ever decide to begin making good music again, they should fire Tate and hire this guy.

That kid rocked. In 35 years I have heard nothing that sounded like Geoff Tate, and he was close. Very cool

@RocktheStageNYC I disagree Kevin. Where men begin to bridge into the head voice is not subjective and should not be if the goal is to help people learn how to bridge consistently. It is true you can bridge at slightly different points, give or take a half or whole step, but the general rule at TVS is E4 for men and Bb4 for women.

The general pitch of someone's speaking voice has little to do with the rule of what note the voice begins to bridge on.
