It takes some practice. First, you need to find the sound and tone where you voice is loudest, with little or no effort--a place where you can make a sound like looooooou and sustain it loudly. This is your natural voice. It is where sound is shaped only by your diaphragm pushing air across your vocal cords. At first, don't try to make the sound appealing, it actually helps to try all sorts of odd sounds and tones to see where your voice is at its best. You can then learn how to add the vibrato using the muscles in your throat and vocal cords. Warm up before singing by practicing this sound by running though the scales a few times, then run through adding vibrato.

One of the most diverse muscles in our bodies is the tongue. This amazing tool not only helps you talk, but also helps you properly sing. When you sing, it is important that your tongue rest in specific areas as certain notes or scales are attempted. Learn here how to sing https://tr.im/gazua

The tip of the tongue is the easiest to control, but is not what is used the most in singing. When you sing, the tip of your tongue should be lightly pressed against the back of the lower teeth. This will ensure that it doesn't get in the way, or hinder the middle, sides, or back of the tongue when attempting certain notes. The back of the tongue, probably one of the hardest areas to control, should be the section that is relaxed. Once you get used to keeping the tip of your tongue lightly pressed against the back of your teeth, this should be easier to do. You can even put the tip a little lower if you feel it's in the way or becomes irritated. So, the back of the tongue should be relaxed, yet ready for use. You should be able to control it a little bit at this point. As you practice singing a little more, try to notice what the back and middle section of your tongue are doing. On lower tones or notes, the tongue will lie flat. On higher tones, the contrary. When it comes to lower tones, the tongue doesn't have as much work to do because the lower sound that is emitted originates in the chest cavity and is formed through the throat. With higher tones, however, the higher the tone, the more 'active' this back section of the tongue must be. Now that the tongue has been covered in some detail, it should be noted that singing is difficult on the muscles and surrounding cavities and ligaments. However, difficult does not mean painful. If in hopes of reaching a certain tone or trying to hold a sound, you thereby cause stress to your neck or throat muscles, you are not going to last long. Controlling these muscles, as steadily as possible, and working them to a certain point each day, without strain, is one of the most important factors when it comes to practicing and learning how to sing. Remember, you should never feel pain nor strain.

Okay. Vibrato is not necessarily bad. Not even in a choir, if you can match at least the volume and overall tonal quality of your section (does your choir director work with the group for a uniform vowel sound for example?)



A lot of young singers don't have a natural vibrato either because they just have that sort of voice (you can hear a perfect example of this among unchanged boys), or they are actually singing incorrectly. If your vibrato only goes a bit wide when you hold a note (rather than when you sing in general), you need to work on your breath control As you run out of air, your note goes wobbly. Or you may be trying to show off that "strong opera voice" and end up being far louder than necessary. As one of the few voices that can actually hit the notes you're supposed to, you may actually feel pressured to sing out to cover the fact that the other girls are either NOT singing the note on pitch or not singing the note at all. The trouble with a lot of amateur or school choirs that don't require actual auditions to get in (and I don't know if yours do or not, or has low standards to get in), is that lots of girls will choose to sing in the soprano section because sopranos generally get the melody and they can't (or won't) sing a harmony part. Sometimes, rather than telling the singer to move to the correct section for their voice type, the director will ask the few true sopranos to be a "section leader". Ironically sometimes the "section leader" gets called on by the director for "sticking out" after most of the section dropped out because they couldn't sing a high G or A to save their lives! I mean the regular G5 or A5 you find in the soprano line--no crazy whistle notes!



If you want to get help with your singing, and you don't have money for singing lessons (which I wonder if you even bothered to price), you must FIND the time and the way to work after class with your music teacher. The internet is not going to help you because anyone helping you will have to be able to see and hear what you are doing when you sing and offer advice which you also have to be able to see and hear. That face-to-face feedback is crucial.



By the way, the more you try to force your voice to stay straight, the more it will wobble.,. You will end up tightening up your vocal cords and stressing out your voice one way or the other, and become self-conscious with every note you sing.



Please---find a way to stay after school. And see if it's a problem with breathing and volume control, okay?

Answer 5

Your voice is probably a lot stronger than most girls in your choir. Like people say, vibrato is most certainly not a bad thing. However, you can moderate it, and use it when it sounds right. Try singing a little softer than the other girls next time. It may help. If not, ask your choir teacher. Maybe she can give you a few pointers or tell you if it's actually hurting the sound of the soprano section.

Good vibrato - will never damage the vocal ligament and is created through oscillation of the air flow which in turn oscillates the vibration frequency.



Bad vibrato - is when the singer has been incorrectly singing and now the vocal ligament has lost it's natural elasticity and can not sing without dual vibration.



Bad Vibrato - is also when you tighten the laryngeal muscles and articulators to create a false sounding vibrato. This causes laryngeal damage.



If you are finding your frequency [note] is vibrating too much, contract your right pectoral muscle, the clavicular pectoralis is the air stabiliser in the human torso.

This is why singers with "attitude" can control their vibrato and projection so much more than a person who sings with their body slacking.



People who don't like themselves very much will have soft voices but people with attitude you will find their voices quite strong, it's all about the pec's



If you really want to be the best you can be with your voice then you really need a voice coach - one on one and face to face because it is technique and understanding the human voice that you are lacking .
