Because I like singing very much, but sang for many years also never studied related theories, so yesterday borrowed from the library of a Liu Song teacher wrote book "With Me to learn singing", a thin book. After reading combined with their own experience to summarize.
First, the posture of singing
Singing is usually sung standing. If you want to sing well, you must breathe well, if you want to breathe well, you must stand well. Especially for beginners, it is not easy to control breathing in other postures or to choose a standing posture.
Second, the breath is the source of sound
The breath of singing is very important, whether it is talking or singing, is through the breath impact vocal cords, vocal cords vibrate and make sound.
Breath includes inhalation and exhalation.
1. Inhale
Inhale, the mouth to open, mouth, nose and inhale. When inhaling to notice, do not want to suck a lot of very deep, so have very obvious action, suck very fiercely, inhale after chest aquiline. Inspiratory is for the expiratory service, what we need is a very stretch of inspiratory, similar to the initial stage of yawning, this need to slowly experience.
2. Exhale
Singing when the pronunciation is in the breath, the pronunciation of the abdomen a little sinking, the breath upward rebound, slowly exhale out.
3. Air vocal Singing
Air-acoustic singing is one of the characteristics of the use of breath in popular singing, and it is a combination of air and sound. Normal sound rule, demand breath vibrating vocal cords, two pieces of vocal cords to be closed and audible, this sound is relatively strong and loud, generally suitable for the second half of the song, accompaniment to add drums, emotion completely released. The acoustic singing is deliberately not let the vocal cords completely closed, so that the air flow through the vocal cords are not fully vibrating, the sound contains a clear airflow. Suitable for the beginning of the song, emotional to be restrained some.
4. Breath of Practice
Watch the stopwatch "joyriding" out of breath, record the number of seconds that can be kept, the more the number of seconds indicates the stronger the ability to control gas.
Third, the resonance when singing
Singing to use the nasal cavity resonance, specifically how the matter is actually I do not know, can only slowly realized.
Iv. the location of Adam's Apple is crucial
The Adam's Apple plays a vital role in singing, when the Adam's apple remains stable or in a slightly declining position, the sound is strong, generous, rounded, and bright, when the throat is partially aspirated. Singing when the Adam's apple slightly down, when the voice of the state to keep breathing, you can make the Adam's Apple block a certain pressure, make a very good sound. The throat is an open state.
The way to make the Adam's Apple fall, the feeling of yawning is. Of course, in singing, especially high-pitched, the Adam's Apple will naturally mention, this need to practice, if you can sing in the time to maintain the stability of the Adam's Apple is the best. When the Adam's Apple dropped, singing needed a good breath to support, and the Adam's apple was not very demanding when it came to singing high notes. Anyway, look for the feeling slowly.
V. Nature-unnatural-return to nature
At first we sang in our own most natural voice. Then we will use some breath and sound skills, then the singing will become unnatural. But through this unnatural process, with the practice over and over again, after a conditioned reflex, we apply these techniques to the natural state, and this nature and the beginning of nature is different.
