My coach doesn't distinguish head voice/chest voice, but stresses that each different note requires adjustments in placement and sculpting. I am not a...
Amen to that! ... From: Catherine Finn [mailto:catiefinn@...] Sent: Thursday, May 01, 2003 6:56 AM To: Tessitura@yahoogroups.com Subject: Re: Tessitura:...
What style of music do you sing? (e.g classical, jazz, pop, folk, rock, musical theatre). Do you write music/lyrics. I sing pop/folk/rock. Some originals...
I suppose I could also use the broad classification of pop, folk, rock and maybe add jazz as well. I have dabbled at writing my own songs but feel that...
Hi, I sing cabaret-style music ranging from standards to Broadway show tunes to jazz. At least I did when I was performing full time. I now teach more than I...
I sing a variety of styles. I'm curretly being trained in classical technique and am a member in my school's jazz group. My own personal interests are in show...
Nope, has nothing to do wtih range or sound. In speech level singing when they explain it, it has to do with the actual process going on with your voice. ... ...
I've been watching a lot of speech level singing seminars as you can see from my posts....and I noticed people keep talking about breath support and belting...
Well...you have a great point. In the abstract I'd like to think that music is my life and I know I truly want to make music my life but unfortunately the...
... I think the muscular actions used in support don't increase breath pressure but instead contribute to a "yawn" or "vomit" reflex, that allows you to keep...
I don't know about speech level singing, but one should NEVER use the larynx to "hold back" breath. That will put a terrific strain on the vocal folds. One...
Hi All, As the newbie here, I hope I am not chiming in on this subject too soon, but I have had much experience with this issue, both as a singer myself, and...
I could NOT agree more! Without diaphragmatic support, one's voice is gone in a few short years.--CP ... From: Catherine Finn To: Tessitura@yahoogroups.com ...
There will be notes out of every singers range. But support is essential in singing, especially notes in your top, and singing long phrases. You have to give...
what you describe about putting air pressure on the vocal folds is not breath support, but overblowing (shouting). This is the exact opposite and is harmful to...
If I might be just a little unscientific, perhaps I can suggest some helpful visualisations when going high: Your voice is being supported on a big bouncy...
Hi I totally agree. It really helps if you can paly a instrument. I myself play piano and use keyboard (a casio) although i don't like keyboard. I played piano...
Why don't you study at college or something... then once your debts are paid, you can branch out. I did 2 year's in college and although I gave it away, I'm...
I said the muscles INSIDE the larynx. The ones that control the vocal folds. Not the muscles that pull it up or down. ... the larynx to "hold back" breath....
I really meant to say that you make the vocal cords strong enough to hold back the air rather than having to control it with breath support. Seth Riggs says...

It depends on the type of music you sing. In a lot of contemporary genres of music you can get away without a mastery of support. In pop music, you have very...
I still believe that you should not regulate breath with your throat in any way. The shape of the throat (and soft pallet) is important for placement of the...
