Raise the Soft Palate for Better Vocal Tone – Free Singing Tips A2Z

Creating a larger space inside your mouth by raising the soft palate, or fleshy part of the back of our throat, helps achieve a deeper more well rounded singing tone.

One way to achieve this is to think of biting into a large apple. At SingSmart™ we like to call this APPLE AH. To practice, pretend you are about to bite into an imaginary apple and sing AH.

A great way to practice this exercise is a vocal siren.

Remember, it takes repetition of this action to retrain those muscles to hold that position so do this on a regular basis for many weeks while you practice. Before you know it, this action will be moved into your subconscious and you will be singing with a lifted soft palate and creating a much warmer, rounder vocal tone..AND, singing will be easier.

Oh…one more thing, be sure you don’t create TENSION when you practice this motion.  It should be very relaxing.  Not convinced?  It is the same action that is performed when you yawn!
