Vibrato: A Singer’s Guide

Have you ever wondered:

• What causes vocal vibrato?

• If my vibrato is too fast, slow, wide, or uneven, what can I do about it?

• How can I sing “straight(er) tone” with balance and comfort?

• Is a slower, wider vibrato (a “wobble”) inevitable with age?

• How can I develop a vibrato if I don’t have one?

• Why does my jaw, tongue, neck, or larynx shake with my vibrato?

Vibrato: A Singer’s Guide is a 2-hour seminar and accompanying vocal exercise routine, delivered live, via Zoom, designed to help demystify the topic of vocal vibrancy, and give you the tools you need to work with your vibrato.

You will learn:

• The parameters of a healthy, normal vibrato

• The physiological causes of vibrato

• The connections between breath support, vocal folds, and vibrato

• Vocal exercises that can help you explore straight(er) tone singing in a healthy way

• How to encourage vibrato if it is absent or inconsistent

The seminar includes:

• 90 minutes of interactive presentation by Dr. Julia Nielsen, including opportunities for discussion among participants

• 30 minutes of singing vocal exercises related to understanding and monitoring vibrato (participants remain muted)

• Ample time for Q&A

• 30+-page seminar booklet, delivered electronically, including handouts and the notated vocal exercises

• Unlimited access to a video recording of the seminar for 30 days after the live event
