What should I do if I use the wrong method to sing bel canto? The problem with bel canto singing

Practice breathing and start over!

Forget your jaws! When practicing, you may want to raise your head slightly to try to find a position, and when you sing correctly, it sounds like your voice is floating on it. Or on the top of the head, even like a person singing from the ceiling.

The mouth does not have to be too open, but the inside of the mouth must be open and there must be a cavity. Imagine that there are two points, one support point at the back of the head and the other support point at the waist (around the tail vertebrae), and pull apart at two points like a rubber band, and the sound will be very beautiful! It is recommended to strengthen your lower back, that is, to strengthen the use of breath.

Introduction: Vocal singing is obviously different from the way people speak naturally, what are the incorrect vocal methods in ordinary practice? The following is my collection of vocal problems and corrections about bel canto, welcome to refer to it!

Common vocal problems and how to correct them

In the process of vocal training, beginners will have many common problems, such as no timbre in the middle and low vocal areas, tongue sound, etc. In order to get a good vocal practice and build a solid foundation for bel canto, these problems must be addressed.

1.There is no timbre in the low-mid range. It can be repeated with a semitone raised vocalization exercise.

The range of the vocal range needs to be determined according to the individual's conditions and abilities. It can be trained with a vowel sound o that is conducive to the natural erection of the mouth. Such as:

o - o -

In view of the fact that there is no sound in the low vocal area, some physical assistance can be added to the process of vocal practice, the most common is "lifting the piano". At this time, we use our strength on our legs, and our waist will naturally be in a tense state, and it is easy to sing at this time. In addition, you can also sing while squatting, the principle is the same as "lifting the piano", but the presentation is different.

In addition to external help such as body and posture, our consciousness also has a great influence on singing, which means that we always think that the breath is deep in the waist, and the voice is through the chest cavity and comes out from the top of the head, and has nothing to do with the throat. These different training methods can all achieve the same goal, that is, to make the middle and low vocal areas have timbre.

2.Tongue root sound. To solve the root of the tongue, we must first understand what true bel canto is.

As mentioned above, bel canto singing requires lowering the position of the larynx. Its singing needs to open its mouth vertically and have a transparent pipe, coupled with a sufficiently stable breath to form a bright, mellow and plump timbre, rather than blindly blocking the base of the tongue in the throat, forming a seemingly thick voice, which is not only uncomfortable for the listener, but also uncomfortable in the throat. We can use consonant vocalizations to help him with this.

Such as: ya ya ya

3.White voice. For bel canto beginners, a white voice or too much voice is also a common problem.

The main reason for the white voice is that the breath is not enough, in the process of vocal practice, we only need to think about "open the cavity, lift the soft palate", after the voice, the mouth shape remains the same, the waist is forced, you can use a simple scale mi re do to pronounce the "o" sound, this method is simple and useful. Singing with a white voice is more common for beginners. Since beginners don't have a concept of cavity yet, it is no different from when they usually speak, so as long as they practice more and slowly develop a concept of bel canto.

That's right. It's just a difference in the way of teaching and the individual's understanding of the sound. It's really easy to make your singing methods "fight".

Bel canto singing has the same goal, nothing more than talking about the cavity, breath and position. Put the sound into the head cavity to get a high position for a brighter, high-pitched and more powerful sound. The latter is also emphasizing the high position, using the resonance of the chest cavity to put the point on the nasal bone and sing, I think it means opening the nasopharyngeal cavity and then connecting the head cavity with the chest cavity.

Using good head cavity resonance in terms of treble does make the sound brighter, high-pitched, and more effortless. But we talk about singing as the singing of the whole body, which is done by the cooperation of all cavities. For example, if you listen to Wang Chuanyue, the gold medal winner of today's Youth Song Competition, his treble is high-pitched and bright, penetrating, and has a metallic luster.

He doesn't just open the head cavity in the treble, but connects it to the chest cavity. Therefore, singing is the singing of the whole body, and it is still necessary to learn and experience it little by little!

And I suggest you'd better find a teacher. And beginners don't always look at those things that are theoretical, and they will be confused when they look at it. The simpler the singing, the better.

Hope it helps.

The way is the same, the sound should be close to the cavity of the head and come out like it comes out at a point above the eyes. When breathing, pay attention to holding back the sound, use the breath to drive the sound, don't let the sound affect the breathing, breathe correctly, the effect of the sound will be good.

This is really mainly to solve the problem of the vibration position of the treble. The vibrations of the vocal cords will not be talked about here. In bel canto singing, the two teachers speak the same, and the latter teacher speaks more specifically.

The so-called head cavity resonance, mainly refers to the use of the nasal cavity, the so-called head cavity resonance, its basic principle is that in addition to the use of vocal cord vibration, but also need to use the vibration of the position of the cartilage behind the nose, we generally call falsetto, in addition to the overtone of the vocal cord part of the vibration, also need the vibration of this position, plus the resonance and breath support of the whole cavity, so as to form a high-pitched and loud sound. This requires a lot of practice, and you can only experience it yourself, and it is useless for others to say more.
