Hola Pablo !
how about your tongue position, could it be too flat ?... Singing with a tongue in the "ng" position just like Flagstad recommended is healthier especially when around and above high A... Try the sound è or E (like in "bella") that will raise the base of your tongue and will allow for a necessary flip to occur. You will then be in another "voice area" around A or Bflat... If you are indeed a tenor, you will feel that this mechanism takes you up to the high C, C#...
Best of luck in your study

at 22 I just can't get to the bloody A4 without making it sound like I have a gerbil down my throat. I feel like a failure as a tenor. I've heard tenors two years younger than me hitting them without any problem, and my voice doesn't even have the character it should have. I've tried everything teachers have told me and i still can't get a bright , decent sound up there, this has been going on for some time and I just wish I had been born a computer programmer sometimes.
