What's the difference between vocal performance department and pop music department?

The vocal music department takes bel canto and folk singing as the main training courses, mainly to train stage actors and singers, so it has requirements for appearance and height. More importantly, you should know whether you want to make a living with this major. The study of pop singing belongs to the department of stream music, which is divided into performance major and management major. The former is to train singers to perform on stage, while the latter is to learn pop music theory.

The biggest key is that the way of vocalization is different. Bel canto pays attention to the technicality and standardization of vocalization, emphasizes the * * * ring and coverage of the voice, requires the throat to be fully opened downwards in physiology, and pursues the "mask concentration point" with strong penetration to obtain high-quality sound effects. National singing pays attention to the naturalness of singing, emphasizes the organic combination of singing and articulation, advocates the basic view that "word correction" can "tune" the circle, and pursues the traditional format of "word correction" and "rhyme correction". Popular singing methods pay more attention to "feeling", emphasize the importance of musical sense and imitation in singing, pursue the personality and characteristics of voice, and "colloquial" singing style. It can be seen that the differences between the three singing methods from singing to style performance are obvious.
