    I am a baritone and I want to sing "burn " on F#4 on the song "Burn for You" and I want to know what vowel mod I should work on to get a nice sounding tone on that pitch.Thankyou Wayne.

    Hi, Wayne! Most importantly, I'd drop the R sound for a while ("bu-n"). Always start with UH as in BUG, since the OU sound in BURN is very similar (just a slight rounding of the lips will take you from UH to OU). If UH doesn't work, try going slightly wider towards EH as in BED. Update with what worked, if you'd like!

    Hi Camille, your advice was great I found the "UH" sound worked best for me and sounded and felt much better.I found it easier to go even to a higher pitch.I will continue to work on it and practice and thank you very much Camille.
