Dealing with nasality in singing and speaking

Our latest Vocal Process training DVD is now available.


The new training DVD, "Nasality and the Soft Palate", deals with the annoying issue of nasal singing and speaking. Nasality happens when air (and sound) leaks into and down the nose when it's not supposed to. The results of this can make your voice sound dull and muffled, you might lose control of your top notes, and your diction will be affected. In fact, slight nasality is quite common in a number of dialects.
We've set up a Nasality and the Soft Palate webpage about the problems of nasality, and the techniques that you can learn to overcome it. The Nasality and the Soft Palate DVD contains techniques, tips and practice sequences to overcome nasality, improve your high notes and get clearer diction.

We pre-released this new Vocal Process training DVD to the people on our free eZINE list, and the response was amazing.

"I would recommend it to anyone who is serious about developing his/her voice."
"The content of the DVD is super useful & I shall be using it with many of my private students."
And a few sentences from Anne in the US: "I am a Certified Master Teacher of Estill Voice Craft and I found the presentations on the DVD to be very helpful to me in learning an effective way to present the skills. I would absolutely recommend the DVD to the entire singing world. Thanks for all the wonderful products you have developed, they are all great!"

Incidentally, the Nasality webpage also contains a 10-second test to find out if you have slight nasality in your singing voice. Check it out!
The Vocal Process "opening your throat" techniques appear on the new sell-out Constriction and Release Training DVD
The Vocal Process website has 280+ pages, including a series of free articles on vocal technique and style, memorising and different musical genres.
