Last time I talked about the vocal cord and the reasons why we flip when we reach higher pitch. Today I'm gonna talk about ways to ease you, help you reach higher pitch without flipping. Bear in mind that singing cannot be taught from reading. You need example and guidance from teachers. But here are the tips to help you especially if you took vocal technique course, this will remind you of what your lesson was about.
1 refrain from shouting and intentionally tucking your stomach in
2 Try decreasing volume and narrowing vowels for example from a to e
3 Encouraging air flow from your mouth when you sing ( you can easily feel air flow by feeling breathe coming out against your palm during sound producing or by hearing it when using a microphone.
4 drop your jaw when reaching higher notes that starts to make you feel uncomfortable
5 realizing that your voice will appear smaller when reaching higher notes (think of piano)
Vocal technique is the experience your teacher guiding you to have through vocal exercise (personally designed especially just for you and your problems) and ,later on, songs. You need to repeat the process that you succeeded during the process so that your body will ,eventually, memorize how to achieve this type of voice over and over again.
