Great Singing Exercise to Stop Strain

In this episode, master vocal coach Kevin Richards shows you a way to get compression without straining your voice. This simple use of a closed vowel gets great vocal cord closure with adding any tension to the larynx.

By using the consonant "W" with the closed vowel "O" and the open sound of "Ah", we can create a balanced onset of sound. This little exercise will increase range and show you how to get a strong connection without overloading the vocal folds.
