Singing high notes

[Italiansinger]

Hi, I would like to know how I have to open my mouth when I change the register of my voice? When I go up with the notes what is the right position of the throat, mouth and tongue? Thank you and sorry for my english.

Generally, singing high notes is the same as singing low notes, a matter of resonance. So, don't open your jaw just to be opening your jaw. Only open as much as you need to achieve good volume, which comes from resonance.

Noone can really tell you what are the proper position of the throat, mouth and tongue when singing.  But the answer is a neutral position, you have to sing and feel the tension in those places and then release the tension.  The excess tension in the throat, mouth and tongue will diminish with practice.

Ron Is right don't mess with your jaw unless your doing it to experiment with what happens when you open your jaw in various positions.  Sometime when you're singing you might want to move your jaw around just to see how it feels, you can do that from time to time, it'll give you a good feel for where the tension is.  As for your throat and tounge they're a little different, they're primary components to articulation as is the jaw but with the throat you want to shape it the way you want to sound, and with the tounge sometimes counter intuitive positioning can be necessary for a desired sound.  Start associating sounds with feelings and sort it out for yourself in your mind.  Don't spend too much focus on any one concept like tounge and throat position, those will come naturally and be imbedded in your subconscious as you keep singing.
