QuestionI can't get above A5, but I can get off the bottom of the piano... Any hope for me getting higher?Community AnswerThis is quite the vocal range!

So how do I find my true singing voice and how do I sing without feeling tension?Meg1118Community AnswerSomething that helps me is just closing my eyes and imagining I'm somewhere else while I sing.
