lol i know people will disagree but...this is really NOT THE CORRECT way to achieve vibrato. By doing this you're just getting your diaphragm used to inconsistent rhythms. In any instrument whether voice, piano, violin etc. vibrato is the oscillation between two notes, it is produced by the pitch your vocal chords create NOT the diaphragm or lungs. Yes his technique works but it also has severe implications to your range and pitch, experienced singers will tell you this!

whoever has a better way to do it, just do your own video guys.This is not a place to through all your bad attitudes!!!You're here obviosuly to learn,not?If not, then you don't belong here!

whatever your "good motives" are (to protect us seekers-of-correct-vibrato), you're doing it with such a wrong heart

I've asked my college vocal teacher about vibrato, i struggle in that i don't have a natural vibrato yet. without realize it, i starting doing what he was saying to emulate the vibrato. this is not what you want to do! i now have to break my habit of it. my instructor said that this vibrato develops bad singing habits and real vibrato is when you have enough support for the larynx and the rest of the throat to vibrate freely through a note

Young boys, or trebles have little to no vibrato. A natural vibrato ususaly begins after the voice changes at puberty. The vibrato is something that just happens naturally. nobody ever taught me vibrato. It just happened. a forced or fake vibrato sounds just that..."Fake" very much like an untrained singer doing an impersonation of an opera singer. However, some people are able to turn off the vibrato to get certain effects, such as barbershop harmony.

@FarhadTv Vibrato can be caused by singing with an open throat and it can also be caused by a great support system using your abdominal mussels.

@coryizamayzing Can you teach me how it happens and what muscles are involved please?

[coryizamayzing]

@FarhadTv Lip trills everyday support and build a healthy vibrato. Also it just came to me naturally, I never learned it.

[FarhadTv]

@coryizamayzing How do you learn vibrato then?

[coryizamayzing]

@KurogetsuOokami But he never mentioned how much damage it does to your voice.

[KurogetsuOokami]

@coryizamayzing He said it's to let the body get used to it. He also said it's truly fake.

FAKE VIBRATO RUINS your voice. WHy the hell are you teaching this???? You're not a real vocal instructor.
