I love singing high notes and alto notes but i want to improve... i was wondering if anyone could just throw out a few tips about singing and voice control!
Thanks a million =) When you sing, always make sure your mouth is open the right amount. It should be open enough so that you can fit two fingers in your mouth (make sure your fingers are positioned vertically; one on top of the other, not side by side).
Check your alignment (or posture). Lift from your head, and stand with your hips slightly back and your chest slightly out, with feet shoulder width apart. Make sure that the only tension is in your waist, not in your head, neck, or shoulders.
And always, ALWAYS warm up before you sing. Try singing some scales on the pure vowels (Ah-Eh-ee-Oh-oo). Warm up for about fifteen minutes, singing about five minutes at a time, allowing for five minutes rest inbetween warmups.
Never sing for too long. If your voice feels tired or strained, stop immediately. Drink plenty of water, but don't flood your system all at once; continually drink water throughout your day.
And lastly, buy a voice recorder. They are invaluble for tracking your progress. Hey Doll :)
Well, first of all, there is no such thing as "alto notes" really. I mean, If you can sing high, go for it! All the power too you, Just watch out for going flat, it happens to the best of us... Alto and soprano kindof blend together, its just where you have more strength. If you can sing high better than low, you are probably a Soprano....
I think that if you really want to improve (Its hard to know your voice because i haven't heard you or anything) you should just really practice. Take some lessons if you can. Sing in the car, shower, wherever. For me, i learned to sing by never stopping... haha.
Get to know your voice, you know. Know your limits, know where your break is, know how low, how high... etc. Try doing scales, that always helps. Try holding notes for a sustained period. Try to center you head voice (Kindof hard to explain) kindof in front of your face. To practice this, place your hand in front of you face and try to sing into it. This really helps with your upper range and strenthening it.
Any more specific questions PLEASE feel free to message me or anything.
