How to increase your chest voice range?

I have a high head voice, but a very low chest voice range, is there ANYTHING I can do to increase its range?

  • My head voice is high to the point I can reach the whistle range and sometimes above, but my chest voice is very weak, it either wavers or cracks when I try to sing. Seeing my friends hit Adele's "Rolling in the Deep" notes with their chest voice makes me want to try the best I can. Please give me advice on how to increase my chest voice. OTL.

  • Answer:

    Most people warm "up" but for you it seems like you should practice more warming "down." Intstead of starting at Middle C (for example) then vocalizing up the scale, vocalize down instead. Please be advised though that it is very difficult to sing very high, then slip down into a much lower octave. Perhaps your voice is not built to be low, as some would kill to have your ability to sing so high. You can try vocal exercises that will get your voice accustomed to lower notes, or you can just be very satisfied that you have a powerfully high range that most wish they could have. Your choice. Just don't let your friends' abilities dictate your own. Good Luck! - DJ

the best thing i learned in voice class is to expand your stomach when you sing, our bodies naturally contract it which is a big reason why our voices get shaky and we run out of breath. it feels kinda funny at first but youl see when you get used to it your voice will be stronger and it will produce a better sound :D check out my cover of "siberia" by LIGHTS? :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jLekqe31gsI&feature=g-upl&context=G2fc96d0AUAAAAAAAAAA thanks!! hope this helps!!

Sing scales in chest voice when you reach your highest note practice it over and over until its easy than try to sing the next note up and practice untill its easy. Do the same with head voice but going downwards. Good luck! Xoxoxoxo
