Here are my 5 Quick Tips to Sing Better High
Notes

1. BUILD YOUR VOCAL STRENGTH
In order to hit better high notes, you need to
strengthen your voice. A weak voice will have
trouble hitting high notes or sustaining them.
Build your vocal strength by practicing vocal
technique exercises 4-5x per week for a minimum
of 30 min, max of 60. You can start with our
Singers Gift Warmups that help to open,
strengthen, warm up your voice and expand your
range. Its the most important thing to do if
you want to hit better high notes first.

Most people dont realize that if you just open
your mouth more when you sing instead of
gripping your jaw or throat muscles so hard,
youll have more sound and it will flow out
easier. Its a quick trick that works well.
2. Open Your Mouth
More When You Sing

3. Point
Because high notes are placed higher in a
singers instrument, the mistake is often made
to reach up. While we want the soft palate in
the upper back of the mouth to arch up, we dont
want the tongue or especially the chin to lift.
Keeping your chin pointed down on high notes
will help you reach them with more ease and power.

4. Hold Your Jaw Open
Its common to close the jaw a bit to reach
higher notes, but be careful not to close
too much as you can cut off your tone, power and
volume. Holding your jaw open until the close of
the word (sing on the vowel not the consonant)
will give you more volume and power.

5. Press the Back of Your Tongue
Down

• Singers often complain about their high notes
  sounding too thin or harsh. This is because as
  you sing higher your throat tends to close, and
  your vocal muscles get pushed upward making for a
  thinner,
• harsher sound. One of several solutions is to
  press your tongue down in the back of your
  throat to anchor the note. First, practice the
  feeling of the tongue dropping in order to use it
  during singing.
