THE VOICE CONNECTION
SOUND OFF

Welcome to The Voice Connection Sound Off; a forum for users of books like Raise Your Voice, Melody to Madness, The Ultimate Breathing Workout, and Unleash Your Creative Mindset, as well as a place for Vendera Vocal Academy members to interact.

This message board was created so that singers could come together and "sound off" to help support each other during vocal development and the creative process of unleashing the creative spark that occurs when writing and producing music. Currently, myself and vocal coaches Ben Valen, Ray West, and Ryan Wall are here to respond periodicially to your questions, with new vocal coaches coming soon. But, feel free to help each other too:)

This board is here for you to ask questions about my and my fellow coach's books, videos, and MP3 programs, as well as offer others help with our vocal techniques. You may also post videos of yourself and your band to share your music and ask for critiques.

Please refrain from negative comments, profanities, spamming, and inappropriate criticisms of vocal methodologies, vocal coaches, and singers. All negative posts will be deleted and subject to banning without question. I will not respond to negative posts, because, as Mark Twain once said, “Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience.” With that said, positive criticism is welcome because that is how you'll grow as a singer during the training process.

Itchy nose during lip roll warm up

my nose gets ridiculously itchy during the lip roll warm up. It's really annoying, I have to scratch it vigorously in between each pitch change in the online audio clip. Just thought I'd share.

Yeh that happens to me to lol
Its really annoying

Re: Itchy nose during lip roll warm up

This happens to me too, occassionally. It's not terribly uncommon. On a similar note, there are also people whose ears begin to itch when they perform the resonance hums.

Re: Itchy nose during lip roll warm up

It's just an indicator that you're doing your exercises properly! Good job

Re: Itchy nose during lip roll warm up

This is gonna sound incredibly stupid but when I do the resonance hums whilst sat on a chair, I can feel the sound resonating down to my bottom and crotch for the low chest notes... :P

Anyway, is it acceptable to flip to falsetto during the resonance hums? Even in falsetto, my nose itches one hell of a lot. Same with lip trills. I keep sneezing after a while.
