This vibrato voice lesson is the artistic element of vibrato. So we're gonna be delving a little bit deeper playing with air pressure to give a nice spinning very dramatic for Bravo. So if you like today's video please be sure to give it a thumbs up or click the subscription button below. I'd love to see you here more often. OK so first things first. What we absolutely have to do in playing with air pressure is to generate some. And we do so by really activating the diaphragm. Now it's important to remember that the way that we want to drive that diaphragm engage that diaphragm is reflexive. So we're going to be playing with sounds that really take care of that feeling for you. That way you don't have to resort to force to pushing too much air pressure through the through the body. We don't necessarily want that. We want a nice reflexive quicker twitch to the diaphragm. OK. So the best way to get this party started is to stand comfortably with your feet just a little wider than shoulder width. Now the first thing we want to do is we want to make sure that our body is relaxed enough to be able to register the influence of gravity. Now that's pretty relaxed when you can feel gravity pulling at you. So let's take a moment to discover what that feels like might also feel like your body is just like a wet rag. Just nice and heavy here here. Very good. You can also pretend that your body is like a sweater hanging on a hanger. You just want to feel that feeling of nice and relaxed. This is going to give you the discernment of being able to feel the difference between using the chest or the back muscles to try to pull at the diaphragm or try to shove too much of an exterior influence. We want to be able to isolate an interior quite legit quick twitch from the diaphragm so let's get back to discovering our relaxation feeling gravity good. So when you're ready we're going to just gently use the F consonant. Now this this concert here is fantastic because the diaphragm will lift quickly and reflexively just as a natural consequence of that consonant. So here we go. Relax the body. We're just going to f four times feel that good for you. And if you have to shake your body a little bit just to encourage that you don't go like that you'd be surprised how much the body wants to wiggle about just to generate some air pressure and some excitement. So now we're going to shift the consonant from F to V. Now they're essentially the same. It's just that F has no voice. V does but they're identical in their formation in their phonetic. So relax your body. Now we'll go to v four times I feel that we flux of quick twitch that quick lift again a dynamic vibrato is all about speed speed and air pressure. At least it is today in our in our lesson. So now that we've generated a little bit of that speed now we're going to use this in a sound. So this is a sneaky very sneaky exercise because it gives the illusion of being symbol and it is but it's not necessarily easy. So I'm going to guide you through it so we're gonna use the constant of B to generate some very legit air pressure behind the lips and we're gonna say boom just like that. So observe as you as you say boo that a little bit of air pressure arrives right behind the lips so that when you release it into the you it can spin a little bit. Now again we're not aiming for the spin we're not trying to force of a dynamic for broader to happen. We're just gonna put it in the best frame of reference that we can for it to thrive and for it to show itself naturally. So we're gonna say boo boo just like that feel that air pressure. Boo Boo. Yeah. Now we're going to feel that air pressure and then relax. So we're gonna push off of that B. And what you might notice is a sort of slinky effect. It may go do you hear that boo boo boo boo. Now that is just a result of me getting a little bit of air pressure behind behind the lips and then relaxing it but I'm keeping that air flow manageable now as we create drama we want to. We want to pair it with a vow which is why we're going to nice narrow vow. We want to create a dynamic sound be with who. Now this is going to default into head voice which is going to make the whole process a little bit more manageable for you. That we're not going to bow and flexing using the muscles underneath the chin.
