KILLER! Absolutely loved this Marnell.
Gonna give a good hour or so session on this!
Love & respect bro!
I cannot say enough good things about this video. Great full bodied singing
too not just in terms of the sound, but that the whole body in involved in
the production.
Awesome video. Even your laughing and excited speaking is louder and more
energetic than 99% of people I know! Are you a dramatic voice? Also,
Victoria absolutely KILLED it, what a beautiful voice!!!
excellent video
Thanks, Marnell! You are a vocal mensch.
Thank you kindly, Marnell. This really is very cool.
Marnell is a VERY good teacher. We haven’t been working together for long,
maybe I took about 10 lessons. And I still have issues but I feel like I’m
literally growing with every lesson even untrained ear can hear it. 🙂 He
explains everything in a very clear and understandable way. So I can
practice on my own correctly and after every lesson he sends a recording of
our lesson with some notes which is very helpful. And I like that he has a
system it’s not like one lesson we learn one stuff another other ones
without engraving what we worked on till it’s really done. He’s very
attentive and passionate about what he does. So I strongly recommend him as
a coach. Before I met him I struggled to hit E above man high C now I can
hit A in full voice without even thinking. And I know it will even get
better. He also sends a lot of additional materials for better
understanding of the topic we’re working on.
Thank you, Marnell, for being a good teacher for me :)
Brilliant teacher. Clearly explained and demonstrated. Thanks!
Thanks Marnell, for taking so much effort into your singing videos! That
way you are making things really clear to us. I’ll definitely keep watching
your videos :)
Hello Mr Sample! I found this great song and I don’t know how the singer
sings it so well( Jackson Browne – Sky blue and black. It’s too low aaand
too high in places=D Could you tell me what I could do to sing it maybe not
exactly the way he does it, but at least not hidiously=D
Thank you for all the amazing content you’re producing on this channel! The
little breathing snippet here led me to try nose breathing while singing
and it totally changed my perspective of how much air I really need for
singing. 🙂
Stupid brain always tells me to take these huge gulps of air through the
mouth but it’s so much more exhausting to sing with all that excess air.
Never seen a teacher explain SO WELL as Marnell does.
World class teacher!
This is good, but I’m not sure if this approach is ideal for all genres of
singers.
Elliot Smith, Thom Yorke, and Curtis Mayfield are examples of many who
spend a lot of time in the quieter areas of their voice. Making those
areas sound good has taken as much effort as making loud sounds sound good..
I find it useful to practice medium quiet to quiet volumes as well as loud
volumes, although I agree focusing exclusively on this area would hinder
development. Some people like myself would instinctively would push for
volume without outside influence from a teacher or singing education,
others instinctively whisper.
Great instructional video! Keep up the inspiring work!
You are great Marnell 😛
And Victoria is so pretty :3 hahah :)
Hello Marnell! I’ve recently stumbled across this one singer and the amount
of dynamic control he seems to have over his voice is insane. I’m wondering
if one wanting to learn this sort of dynamics should still approach it
through the clear calling register or would falsetto be useful here?
Honestly to my ears I cant even tell if the singer is just using falsetto
with the mic proximity effect but it sounds pretty clear and awesome.
I’m so glad that I discovered your channel.
Nicely done! Thank you for your work.
But he must learn to hear very slowly and for a long time, until there is no failure of vibration in the tone and word, and it is all so impressed upon his memory that it can never be lost.
For instance, studying to sing songs from starting to finish improves your studying expertise and your motor skills, by developing the coordination between your brain and your physique.
