Where is my Whistle register or voice?

Arianna Grande has introduced a whole new generation of singers to the idea of singing in whistler register or whistle voice.  From a technical standpoint, whistle voice is an extension of your head voice that once you have mastered can allow you to sing in an extremely high registration.  In order to truly understand how to produce whistle voice you need to master many of the vocal techniques we have talked about earlier, however if you want to just play around with it and try to find it, there are 2 really easy ways to force your voice into whistle. The first one would be to hold your upper and lower lips in your fingers like we did earlier to relieve lip tension and sing a scale going up into your upper range.  You will feel your voice “crack” into another place.  It should not hurt at all and you should find it really easy.  You can also do the same mouth position by singing in a super closed (oo) vowel position with your lips.  Be sure you are taking in enough air, supporting your voice and have your tongue as relaxed as possible.  Once you get the sensation, you will be able to reproduce it.  Would you like help with your vocal technique and your whistle voice?  Why not try voice lesson in our studio?
