How does improve vibrato?

[amk326]

I find that I sometimes struggle with vibrato when singing certain notes. Does anyone have any tips?

Vibrato is something I hardly ever achieve. And when I deliberately go for it I crack. Every once in a while I get the back end of a note vibrating but it's unconscious.

Its so frustrating, I feel like its difficult to make certain notes sound right without it. I had a recording where I hit this one note just the way I wanted to with vibrato but now I can't repeat it and I don't know how I even did it in the first place...

This is a good statement here. Vibrato singing has a lot to do with your involuntary muscles. If you are thinking about it and really trying to do it, it will be harder to achieve. If you remain calm and relaxed (and confident) while you are singing your voice will automatically pick it up at some points, and when you have built your singing muscles the right way, it will happen easier A few people have told me to over exaggerate it while practicing and eventually those muscles will remember the idea.

Just keep singing!! Practice as often as you can.

That's probably it! When i didn't try to get vibrato, i did and now that I'm trying I can't! Ill try relaxing more

Just get a double chin, if you don't already have one. Then you just shake your double chin on the notes you want to vibrato.

I'm dead serious.

Not joking.

Don't try. If you have natural vibrato, you can learn when to suppress and express it; however, trying to create vibrato when you have none sounds bad - just don't do it.

Find a note somewhere comfortable in middle voice. Then add a half-tone to it and practise very slowly at first changing from one note to the other. Increase speed gradually and NO, do not use your chin, it has to come purely from a vibration in your throat. This is the technical way to learn it. How you use it when singing though depends on your ability to transmit emotion in your singing.
