expand my vocal range

I just kept increasing my practice length, drank plenty of water to keep my throat in good shape, and sang along to some challenging vocalists and songs (especially Nine Inch Nails and Solitude Aeturnus). That did the trick.

Of course, if I take vocal lessons, I can expand my range even more—possibly much more!

I really want to be able to sing soprano … right now alto is where I am most comfortable. I enjoy alto very much, but I want to have the option to sing either. I’ve been working on increasing my range into higher notes, and I’ve made some progress, but it is still not a strong as I would like it to be.

Which is why I’m impressed with Callista down there. C7? Very impressive. Personally, I’ve only hit E6, and that was pushing it.
Being able to sing the the queen of the night song, would be something I’m shooting for, also.
Right now, without practice, I can hit A5 without too much strain. C6 if I’m warmed up good.

So I would realy like to sing a song by the Beatles called “Gt To Get You Into My LIfe” but, the range extends up to the stratisphere (high Bb). I can hit the note sitting down not thinking about it but, come to the chorus… a mess. im trying out some new things to help me out with it such as; John Henny Speech Level Singing CD’s and private vocal lesson by a student of his who mastered the program.

After quitting smoking and practicing for over a year, I was able to increase my range from about F3-F5 to D3-Eb6 (2 octaves to just over 3). My tone quality and control are also greatly improved. Right now I’m following Brett Manning’s Singing Success program to see if I can expand my range even more, and brush up on my technique.

Yeah. Basically I just, uh, sang more. It really helps to sing away from people, like in the car, and not be squeamish about sounding totally terrible for a long time. At first you’ll squeak and squawk and it will be gruelling, but after a while your larynx will get used to it or whatever and you’ll gain some more control. Which is pretty awesome.

I was singing in the car the other day and singing a song I hadn’t sung in a long time, and I realized that I could hit a high note I didn’t used to be able to. It was encouraging, because it’s hard to tell if I’m really making any progress sometimes.
