Question:

Projecting your voice? Help Please!!!!?

I have a singing audition soon and really need some help on how to project my voice, cause I'm a bit quiet at the minute, can anyone help me please, I'm really desperate for tips.

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: the diaphram is always a good idea, but I've got another one for you. Pretend you have an egg in your mouth but keep your lips together- so your tongue isn't touching the roof of your mouth at all- then start to hum. If you're doing it right, it should tickle your nose. Hum up and down the scale a few times really letting it tickle, then open your lips just a little- keep the inside of your mouth the same, and sing uuu- then open up some more to sing OOO, then sing AHHH. Get higher and louder as you change vowels.

This exercise helps your placement, it makes the sound come out of the top of your head (between the eyes)- and your placement is one of the keys to singing louder. Everybody else is right to say sing from the diaphram (they mean breath and support from the diaphram) - but you want to aim your voice through that space between your eyes and your nose.

Another fun trick is to experiment with your voice. sing like it is deep deep in your throut, then move it till it sounds like it's right in your nose- an ugly sound- then back to your throut, and keep playing till you can put your voice in any place in between the nose and the deep throat that you want- experiementing at home is alway good.
