7 Vibrato Exercises for Perfecting & Mastering Vibrato
Updated: Jul 26, 2019
Straight tone is… used in almost every style of music, as is vibrato. A straight tone has no pulse or wave. It has sort of a “flat-line” sound. It’s often used to add intensity to a note.
Tremolo (wobble) is… when a singer holds out a tone and the pitch is wobbling up and down, actually singing back and forth between two pitches. A vocal wobble (unless specifically called for) sounds sloppy and uncontrolled.
The Perfect Vibrato™ training program takes you step-by-step, helping you master the use of vibrato, as well as the use of straight tone in your singing voice. Perfect Vibrato™ is recorded on 3 CDs, divided into two singing lessons, and further broken down into a total of four sections. Here’s the breakdown:
Lesson 1: Developing the Vibrato
Lesson 1 starts off with a vibrato assessment section. A typical professional sounding vibrato pulses at about 5-7 pulses per second. The vibrato assessment helps you determine where your vibrato speed is, and then how to best proceed with the program for your level.
The second section of this first lesson is developing the vibrato, taking you through 7 different methods to finding your best vibrato, helping you develop your optimal, natural vibrato speed, which is a little different for every person.
Lesson 2: Polishing the Vibrato The first section of lesson 2 is all about polishing the vibrato. It takes you through dozens of exercises to give a great, finished sound to your voice. This section works on continuing to master your best vibrato. At the same time, you’ll perfect a free, open and powerful straight tone. The final section pulls it all together! This is the application section. You’ll work on several song phrases, mixing up the use of your newly mastered vibrato and straight tone vocals. You’ll learn to easily move between vibrato and straight tone when stylizing.
Happy Singing!!
