Your soft palate is doing a lot. In this fourth installment of the Vocal Tract Series, we dive into how the soft palate (velum) affects breath flow, resonance strategy, and vocal registration.

You’ll learn:

What the soft palate does in singing
How its movement changes acoustic space and pressure
How to use it to manage cracks, nasality, registration shifts, and yodels
Its connection to psychological identity and style/genre

This is a clear, hopefully playful look at how one often fraught part of vocal training/anatomy can create clarity, confidence, and versatility.
