The correct way to vocalize the American voice for beginners

American voice generally refers to American vocal singing. American voice singing (Italian: Bel canto), refers to the larynx in the state of maintaining the inhalation position, the exhalation of airflow blowing the vocal folds, so that the open *** sounding cavity can be completely and evenly *** sound singing method. The following is the correct vocalization method I brought to the introduction of the American voice, I hope it will help you.

The Italian school of singing, commonly known as Bel Canto (directly translated as "beautiful singing"), was formed in Florence in the 17th century and spread to the other major musical centers of Italy during that century: Venice, Rome, Naples, and then to Milan. This development in the art of singing was made possible by the change from polyphonic music to monophonic melody. Whereas in polyphonic works the melodic line is sung by several different voices, forming a kind of composite musical weave, the new style made the melodic line of a particular monophonic voice dominant, played by an instrument or orchestra. Famous master singers of both sexes, opera protagonists became soloists, and their magnificent singing and vocal characteristics were called Americana.

With the growing development of the Italian school, contemporary American singing has evolved to a higher level, that of the marvelous mixed-voice singing of the Italian school of American singing. This correct singing style has been recognized by the vocal community and the world at large as the most desirable singing style. Human beings are born with a true voice and a false voice. The so-called true voice is the vibration of the whole vocal cords, i.e. the chest voice area; the so-called false voice is the vibration of the edge of the vocal cords, i.e. the head voice area. The chest voice and the head of the voice area of the true voice and false voice effective combination of the kind of wonderful sound is the mixed voice.

Vocalists in the process of learning, will encounter the phenomenon of real voice and falsetto singing chaos, or with pure real voice singing, or with pure falsetto singing, both of which are incorrect singing. Mixed voice singing is the most important feature of the pure true voice and pure falsetto singing in the mixed voice area, thus solving the problem of highlighting a voice area, to obtain a kind of high and low smooth unity, sweet and mellow, wonderful and harmonious singing effect. Mixed voice singing is the organic combination of chest voice area and head voice area mixed use. So that the proportion of these two sound areas is appropriate, balanced and stable vocal. Head voice area in the chest **** sound, chest voice area in the head **** sound. Only in this way can burst out smooth, even, bright, sweet sound. However, we seek the beauty of the sound "Bel Canto", that is, bright in the dark, dark in the light, with rich and varied colors, and the color of this sound is precisely the color of the mixed voice singing can be given, mixed voice singing is to avoid the sound of the bass in the pure voice, treble with a pure falsetto singing this kind of true falsetto disjointed unscientific singing, to do the falsetto to the true voice, the falsetto to the true voice. False voice to the true voice as the basis, the true voice to be mixed with the false voice, true and false rub together, resulting in a mixed **** singing effect. I think that when it comes to the issue of mixed voice area, the head voice area should be compared to water, the chest voice area compared to soil, water and soil mixed into mud to compare mixed voice singing, however, the superiority of mixed voice singing lies in: First, mixed voice singing to get a good high position of the voice, timbre on the unchanged, **** Ming rich, wide range, sweet and bright, breath support powerful; Second, mixed voice singing to make the voice produce focus. The focus of the voice is to use the least amount of power to achieve the best *** song; Third, mixed voice singing can liberate the voice singing. Mastering the key issues of mixed voice singing, through my years of study and practice, y appreciate the need to seize the following three main links: first of all, the state of breath, breath training is the first step in singing training, but also the most critical step. This step is good or bad decision of the mixed voice singing is good or bad, my vocal teacher, Jilin Conservatory of Music, Director of the Department of Vocal Music Professor Zhu Fuen, in the process of teaching me vocal often shoot the ball of this action is compared to the singing training in the breath action, "the ball" a shot from the ground to pop up, and then another shot, and then popped up, shoot a powerful, popped up! Powerful, singing breath control is the same as this reason, support singing breath muscles in the diaphragm below, so that the chest and waist feel very broad, like a ball to swell up, vocalization when the sound is like a shot of the ball with breath support, the sound outbreak, so that it is free to fluttering flow out. This free fluttering is by the power of the air flow and not by the power of any part of the muscles to help.

When you sing, you must have the imagination of the breath, imagine that the breath in the body is very wide, and keep rolling like a ball, so that you can get good support. Secondly, the state of the throat, with a good breath state, the throat will naturally open, the opening of the throat is actually the inhalation of the larynx followed by downward movement, the opening of the throat is very important, I clearly remember in my alma mater to open the voice of the Italian class, I met China's master of the voice of the Shenxiang's favorite disciple, Professor Yao Chung, he told me to open the throat, sucking to sing is a very good to enjoy the opening of the throat I think it is like the door of a room, and I think it is the same as the door of a room, and I think it is the same as the door of a room, but I don't know what to say. The opening of the throat is like the opening of the door of a room, the action of inhaling is like a key to open the door, the door is opened, so that the person can enter the room and move freely, if one foot has just stepped into the doorway and the other foot is still outside the door, when the door is suddenly closed, the person will be squeezed in the doorway, singing in this kind of voice, the voice can only be squeezed into the throat, and the larynx moves upward because of the pressure. Before a person enters a door, he first opens the door with a key; similarly, before singing, he must first inhale, and when he inhales, his throat can only be opened by the action of inhalation; the most important point is that the throat should be absolutely stable after being opened, and should remain motionless, and this must be supported by good inhalation, which must be done well, and must not be loosened and collapsed. If the support of the breath is abandoned, the opened throat will automatically close. Visible breath correct or not, on the opening and stabilization of the throat plays a very critical role, can also be so called the relationship between them, breath is the basis for opening the throat, the opening of the throat is the result of the role of the correct breath, complementary, indispensable. Once again is the unity of the vocal range, mastering the skill of voice change is to achieve the unity of the vocal range, the establishment of mixed voice singing is another key issue. I think the conversion of the vocal range should not be sudden, it is a prepared gradual process, is a series of small actions rather than a big action to complete. Pure true voice or pure falsetto singing is one big movement of sudden vocal change when the vocal range shifts. Pure falsetto singing is the vibration of the edge of the vocal folds, the sound emitted without chest *** sound, without the correct breath support, so that the volume is not enough to make the sound weak, no penetration, pure true voice singing due to the vibration of the whole vocal folds, the same does not have the correct breath support, resulting in the sound is easy to be white and hard, the position of the low. The purpose of mastering the skill of voice change is to make these two very different singing styles articulate and unify them by mixing the voices, as long as the breath is correct and the throat is fully open, after such practice, you can master the `skill' of voice change more quickly. In the training of the vocal range conversion of the real voice singing another way is to take the traditional training from the low vocal range in the approach to voice change, with this method of training, first of all, we should find out the second group of small words C (to sing the broken sound) is not the main core of the problem, and the real core of the problem is precisely in the small words of a group of e and f on the two sounds of the sound of the why is so obvious to produce a change of voice? Is the female voice position is too low, the head cavity **** Ming did not mix in the chest voice area due to, in addition to the two most obvious e and f, but in fact the sound from low to high, every few notes there is a small "can", but not as small as a group of e and f on the two sound of the broken obvious just. If we mix the sounds proportionally and in a balanced way on every tone from low to high, as if stringing beads on a string, the pure true sound and the pure false sound will be unified.

In the process of practicing, I think the first thing to know is that falsetto is not the same as mixing the voice, in order to make the pure falsetto voice mixed with the chest **** sound, you must be able to use the right breath, experience the correct state of the throat open to the vocal folds of the bubbles fall into the chest cavity and do not change this state, the bubbles of the sound from the chest cavity vibration out of the direct singing. Do not change your breath and sing the bubble sound from the chest vibration. If you do this, you can easily lose the position of the vocal folds in the chest, and if you use the method of dropping the vocal folds into the chest correctly, you will soon get a chest ****ing sound, and the true and false voices will be blended together. I would also like to emphasize that as long as the breath is correctly supported and the throat is fully open and immobile, the throat becomes a channel for the voice to pass through, there will be no dryness to worry about, only the breath rolling up and down with the voice. To sum up, I think the mastery of mixed voice singing is a combination of physical and mental training process, is from habit to habit and then to habit of the correct evolutionary process, for a just started accepting this training of vocal enthusiasts may be a little uncomfortable, and vocal training is precisely the original singing in the formation of long-term bad habits into a correct habit of the method. With this quantitative change to qualitative change process in order to obtain the wonderful mixed voice singing, and I also think that the mixed voice singing this correct Italian American school of singing method, in contemporary times has become the most excellent singing method recognized by the vocal world, I also sincerely hope that every vocal enthusiasts are able to master this singing method, the use of mixed voice singing to make their own level of vocals can be improved, sing the most beautiful voice, to the world!
