Vocal music is an expression method and a form of music

Generally, music is learned by learning vocal music or instrumental music

But if you want to learn music comprehensively, you need to learn a harmonic instrument such as piano, guitar, etc.

You learn vocal music It is best to find a professional teacher

Even if you are studying popular music, you still need to find a teacher,

Because the singing method, breathing, and pronunciation all need to be systematically studied to be perfected

Find a teacher. Without a teacher, you don’t know whether you can sing well or not

If you have any questions, please come to my bar or leave me a message. My bar address is at the bottom

There is only one way to sing high notes, and that is to use the Dantian. Why can’t some people sing even after using their Dantian?

1. Everyone has a different vocal range. I have heard that people with shorter and fatter necks are mostly male and female sopranos, while people with longer and thinner necks are mostly male and female basses. This is because of the Adam's apple. Why can some people who sing male and female basses sing high notes? It can also be trained by practicing the day after tomorrow. Family inheritance seems to be involved. Your parents are male and female sopranos, so you are destined to sing high notes. This is what I heard from attending lectures. So you can research it.

2. Not enough energy and strength. It does not require you to exert all your strength, but to easily use the Dantian and the sound cavities on your body. There are four: chest cavity, nasal cavity, throat cavity and head cavity. Too tight and you won't be able to sing high notes because you've locked up your throat.

The transformation of true and false sounds requires long-term practice. Why do some people have a very low falsetto? It's because your voice hasn't opened yet, and it takes a long time of hard work to open it up, and the strength of your Dantian is also limited. Low

People with low pitches can sing higher notes with their true pitch, but they cannot sing higher notes with their false pitch. On the contrary, people with high pitches cannot sing very high notes with their true pitch, but they can sing higher notes with falsetto.

My music teacher said that in addition to bel canto singing, if you use your Dantian to sing pop songs, your voice will become hoarse over time. Zhang Huimei is an example. The most important thing when singing is to use the Dantian instead of yelling with the throat. Only singing with the Dantian is the best way to protect the throat. I found some information for your reference, but don’t use it if you haven’t followed the rhythm yet. I won’t harm you.

Singing in the Dantian is actually the use of sound and "qi"

When you use the Dantian to raise your energy, the sound you make will be "thick" and "full"!! This is because of the source of the sound Deeper factors

The Dantian is like an engine! You have to use it to send the power through the vocal cords to the singing point...

So when you sing, it's a bit like singing with your "abdominal muscles"! But it doesn't just use your real belly to exert force. Got it!

It is the "deep" part of the belly - the so-called Dantian

But feel the way of exerting force to become familiar with it and use it! You can listen to singing high-pitched things

You can tell whether it is useful for the Dantian! If used, the sound will be very solid...

1. ***Principles and classifications of singing

...

Beautiful singing* Sound is what singers pursue together. If you want to obtain it, you need to fully understand the interrelationship and function of the human body's vaginal sounds, and you must make arduous efforts and undergo hard training to obtain it.

The phenomenon of the object

vibrating is called buzzing.

Sound production requires a vibrating body, a medium and an eardrum to listen to the sound.

When an object is struck and vibrates, it causes the medium to produce ripples, called sound waves. This sound wave is transmitted through the medium into the human eardrum and becomes sound. When a pronunciation body vibrates to pronounce, in addition to a fundamental sound, it can also emit some tiny overtones at the same time. For example: the vibration rate of a string is 400. When its microwave reaches an object that vibrates 440 times per second, the object is affected by the vibration.

It will cause vaginal vibration and produce vaginal buzzing.

The process of formation of the human body's crotch is from singing to making use of many spaces in the human body that can produce crotch, causing the breath to impact

the vocal cords and the fundamental sound appears. . Although this fundamental tone is very weak, once it enters the inherent singing space of the human body, it produces different forms of sound wave vibrations, and beautiful and pleasant singing sounds appear. The use of ringing can amplify the sound effect

and at the same time beautify the sound. We should make full use of the vocal cavity of the human body structure, strive to control singing vocalizations

, and gradually train to form a spatial and three-dimensional sound. The singing effect of singing vocals is very important for singing.

<2> Classification of tinnitus

Classification of tinnitus: There are usually three classification methods: classification based on physiological structure; Classification is based on whether it can be adjusted

; classification is based on the nature of the use of ***.

From the physiological structure, it can be divided into cranial tinnitus, nasal tinnitus and oral tinnitus.

The physiological structure of the head cavity is above the nasal cavity. Each space in the sinus includes the frontal sinus, ethmoid sinus, etc. They belong to a fixed space, and the sound wave vibration is a breathless sound. Small in size and high in position, this color is bright, concentrated and soft.

When singing, you should pay attention to opening the jaw joint, reducing the weight of the lower jaw, and feeling a slight vibration in the bone chamber and between the eyebrows, so that the singing voice will be focused and bright.

The ringing in the head cavity relies on the strength of the pharyngeal wall of the nasopharyngeal cavity and the soft palate to control the direction of the sound entering the nasal cavity, so that the sound enters the head cavity,

forming the ringing. This kind of control must be carefully understood to achieve good results.

It should also be noted that when using the national singing method to sing lyrical high-pitched songs, the sound waves only vibrate at the nasal bones at the upper end of the bridge of the nose.

It is enough; if you use the bel canto singing method to sing loud When singing a dramatic song, the sound waves need to vibrate on the bridge of the nose and a large area of ??bone around it. In order to get the feeling of ringing in the head cavity, experienced singers are often good at sending the sound into the head cavity

, thinking that it is truly beautiful singing, and this kind of singing method, the sound No fatigue, always young.

If the supporting function of the head cavity is lost, the life of singing will not only be shortened, but the sound will be very unpleasant.

<2> Nasal tinnitus and its function

Nasal tinnitus is not a nasal sound. It is the snoring effect produced by controlling sound waves after entering the nasal cavity. From a physiological structure point of view, the upper part of the nasal

pharyngeal cavity is the skull, and the lower part is the soft palate. The nasal cavity and nasopharyngeal cavity form the snoring space, which is large in size and the squeaking vibration is in

It is produced in the nasal cavity and is caused by the fixed space without breath.

To obtain a good nasal cavity, you also need to pay attention to the following points:

The use of the soft palate: The soft palate is usually called the small tongue. The soft palate is the floor of the nasopharyngeal cavity, forming a dome shape that facilitates the use of the pharyngeal wall to push sounds forward. Through the use of the soft palate, the shape of the nasopharyngeal cavity and the timbre are changed. Humming exercises can make the middle part of the soft palate vibrate, expand the nasopharyngeal cavity, and also open the lower part of the nasopharyngeal cavity.

Open and control the jaw joints: The maxillary and mandibular joints should be opened a small half-inch, which is good for achieving perfect cries.

Move your lower jaw slightly

and it will feel as if there is no weight, and your voice will be relaxed and free. Also remember that the nasopharyngeal cavity can not only allow sound waves to enter the larger space of the nasal cavity

***, but also prevent breath from entering this space. It plays the role of sound separation and can

promote the color change of the song.

<3> Oral tinnitus and its function

Oral tinnitus is a variable tinnitus cavity. It is also the middle connecting area between treble and bass, which is the part where articulation is clear. Its vocal area

includes the mouth and throat cavity. Popular singing methods mostly use oral singing.

According to whether the ringing structure is adjustable or not, the ringing can also be divided into fixed ringing and variable ringing

Fixed ringing ***Singing cavity: It includes the nasal cavity and frontal sinus, chatteral sinus, ethmoid sinus, and pit sounds, etc. The nose includes the external nose and nasal cavity. The volume of the nasal cavity is larger than that of the external nose. Its upper wall is the ethmoid bone, and its lower wall is the hard palate. The back is connected to the nasopharyngeal cavity, and the nasal cavity leads to the surrounding bone roofs. The cavities include the ethmoid sinus, the sphenoidal sinus, and the sphenoid sinus.

These cavities have a stable fixed space, and their volume and shape cannot be adjusted.

Variable cavities: It includes the oral cavity, hypopharyngeal cavity, nasopharyngeal cavity and oropharyngeal cavity, laryngeal cavity, chest cavity, etc. The upper front part of the mouth is the hard palate, which is connected to the base of the tongue and the epiglottis pharyngeal cavity at the back. The upper part of the hypopharyngeal cavity opens to the pharynx, connects to the esophagus at the lower part, and connects the base of the tongue and the epiglottis at the upper part.

The laryngeal muscles can actively adjust. Location .

Nasopharyngeal cavity, its front wall is connected with the nasal cavity. The lower part is bounded by the soft palate and leads to the oropharynx.

The oropharyngeal cavity is bounded by the nasopharynx and connected with the oral cavity. Pass down into the larynx and pharynx.

The vocal tract, above the vocal cords, is connected to the mouth, nose, larynx, and pharyngeal cavity, forming a tubular oropharyngeal trumpet. Its exit

is in the nasal cavity and oral cavity. The trumpet mouth is the throat chamber. The vocal cords and vocal tract are one of the main vocal cavities.

The human body’s fixed vocal cavity and variable vocal cavity will all induce beautiful vocal responses after training. The pharyngeal cavity is connected to the oral cavity and chest cavity. It is an important vocal cavity. The chest also plays an indispensable role in ringing. In addition to all the cavities of the human body's singing vocal system playing a role in singing cries, cries also play a role in the bones of the human body. The human voice

The ringing is mainly the cavity ringing. The size and capacity of the human epipharyngeal tube can vary. Through the function of tinnitus, the volume can be increased

and the timbre can be changed. Make the sound emit overtones and beautify it, thereby producing a beautiful sound.

Due to the different nature of use, the ringing in the front of the head is divided into: upper ringing and lower ringing. Generally speaking, the area above the palate is called "upper vaginal tinnitus", and the area below the palate is called "lower vaginal tinnitus".

Upper vaginal sinus: including the nasal cavity, paranasal sinuses, mandibular sinus, frontal sinus, sphenoid sinus, and ethmoid sinus.

Lower vaginal ringing: including the oral cavity, pharyngeal cavity, upper larynx, etc.

As mentioned before, whining can occur anywhere the air is filled with air. However, the head cavity is not a cavity filled with air. Why

What can cause the sound to ring? It turns out that it does not use a cavity with air as a sound cavity for sound transmission, but uses the conduction effect of solid bone tissue to enhance the intensity of sound. The intensity of the sound is one of the important factors that constitute the loudness of the sound. The bone conduction effect is combined with the high pitch, and the sound naturally increases the loudness. Therefore, using the upper part of the body to chirp can help the sound.

expansion.

The principle of using upper vaginal ringing is to use the vaginal vibrations of the larynx, pharynx, and mouth, and conduct them through the skull to cause vaginal vibrations in several sinus bodies

Vibration, to enhance the sound of the sound, we call it "bone conduction" (not air conduction). Singing in the upper part of the body is mainly achieved with the help of "bone conduction". In daily life, although we are not aware of its tinnitus effect, when speaking loudly or pronouncing certain sounds, the tinnitus effect of "bone conduction" is also involved. Expand the audio lineup. The reason why singers emphasize the use of the upper tones

is because it has a strong vibrating effect. If combined with the lower tones, it will have a better effect on high and low notes

The sound quality and the emotional coordination in singing all have a positive effect.

To use the upper ring, you must first generate powerful sound waves from the lower ring. The sound waves reach the hard palate, and the vibration of the hard palate is used to cause the sinuses of the nasal cavity and head cavity to vibrate. This is the role of bone conduction. This not only increases the volume, but also increases the strength of the sound. It stands to reason that when the airflow reaches the mouth, it cannot be allowed to flow out through the nasal cavity. The airflow in the nasal cavity must be turned back to the mouth

and then sprayed out from the mouth. Only in this way can the sound of the upper chest ring be truly obtained. . However, the pharyngeal cavity is a three-way opening.

When the airflow reaches the pharyngeal cavity, part of it must rush to the nasal cavity and part of it rushes to the oral cavity. If you want to redirect the airflow in the nasal cavity

Oral is not easy. In this way, using the upper nasal sound will form a full semi-nasal sound. This situation is common among some singing actors. When they hope to get help from the upper vagina, they lower the base of the tongue, relax the soft palate, and sometimes widen the nostrils. In this way, when the airflow is introduced into the nasal cavity, large amounts of air are released from the nasal cavity. part.

Using the upper twang, it seems that a semi-nasal sound is inevitable. But in ethnic singing, there is obviously less nasal sound than in bel canto singing. This is caused by the different mouth opening and muscle tightness of the two pronunciations. `In singing sounds, almost every final is given a nasal tone, especially when the narrow final i.u.yu is encountered, this phenomenon is even more significant. However

If the listener does not distinguish it carefully, he will not be able to hear the color of the nasal sound, but will feel that the sound is full.

Because the pronunciation of finals is different in nature, its effect on "bone conduction" is also different. Generally speaking,

Narrow finals i/u/yu are obviously stronger than wide finals a/o/e, which can be fully proved by experiments. Why is there such a

phenomenon? This is because the mouth is narrower (the voice position is higher) when pronouncing narrow vowels. When the sound wave reaches the oral cavity, it does not flow smoothly

out of the mouth. It is sent slower than the airflow with a wide vowel. At this time, the force of the instigation of the palate is stronger, so

And the skull can be subject to strong vibrations. However, we should note that this type of finals is the easiest to direct sound waves to the nasal cavity, and is also the easiest to produce nasal sounds, and the oral muscles are relatively tense during pronunciation. In order to make it non-nasal or less nasal,

When pronouncing this kind of sound, you should pay more attention to the appropriate expansion of the mouth. The mouth opening of the wide finals a/o/e is larger than that of the narrow finals i/u/yu.

When the sound waves emitted from the throat reach the mouth, they are not as strong as the narrow finals and are very It is easy to radiate from the inside of the mouth

so the force that shakes the skull is weakened. Therefore, for head cries, narrow finals are more

significant than wide finals. This situation tells us that whether the upper chest can be caused to sing is closely related to the strength of the air flow pressure.

In terms of the level of the sound, high-pitched sounds can easily cause ringing in the head, while low-pitched sounds can easily cause ringing in the chest.

This is because the vocal cords are closed tightly when making high notes and the impact of the airflow is strong; when the vocal cords are closed tightly when making low notes, the impact of the airflow is weak. Bass singers often use the chest to sing, while soprano singers must also use the head to sing. We should note here that singing bass can only be said to be based on the lower tones, which does not mean that the upper tones are completely abandoned. When singing high notes, if you get the cooperation of the upper vagina, the sound will be pure, thick and clear. On the contrary, when singing high notes, it can only be said that the upper tones play a major role. If the upper tones are missing, the height of the sound will be affected; however, the lower tones should not be completely ignored. If the lower tones are missing, ***Ming, it is difficult to get the width of the treble. For our singing voice, whether it is high or low, we always want it to be round and beautiful. It is often heard that although some sopranos can sing up to C4, their voices sound dry and harsh, lacking full color. This is the result of the upper and lower cries not cooperating. Therefore, when singing high or low pitches, the use of cries should be prioritized and secondary. For high notes, the upper cries should be the main one, and the lower cries should be supplemented. For low notes, the lower cries should be the main one, and the upper cries should be the main ones. ***Ming is the assistant. The two must cooperate properly to produce a generous and powerful sound. We heard some soprano singers with beautiful singing voices. When he sings, if he touches the top of his head with his hand, he can feel a violent vibration. At the same time, he touches his chest with his hand, and he will also feel the bones of the chest vibrating. This shows that the treble not only uses the upper tones, but the lower tones also play a role. Some people emphasize the role of the upper tones but ignore the cooperative relationship of the lower tones and thus cannot achieve the ideal high pitch. Broadly speaking, the chest cavity, head cavity, and bone tissue all have the role of conducting sound, but their roles are not equal.

The bone tissue of the chest cavity plus the vibration of the chest wall itself will cause obvious tinnitus; the bone tissue of the head cavity will cause tinnitus due to different regions

The intensity and clarity of the vibrations vary. Generally speaking, the tinnitus in the frontal sinus is the strongest and clearest. This is because this tinnitus area is directly oscillated by all sound waves in the larynx, pharynx, oral cavity and nasal cavity. We require the singer

to raise the voice to the top of the head, that is, to the position of the frontal sinus, so that the bones in this part can produce a ringing effect

Secondly, the occipital bone has a greater effect on head ringing. It is the bone that forms the floor and back of the cranial cavity, directly below the back of the head. Because its position is also where the sound waves go straight, the vocalization of this part of the vocal cavity, in addition to using the forehead vocalization, also uses the occiput when singing high notes. The role of singing is what the Chinese opera circle calls "picking the muscles at the back of the head." So, how can we use this part of the *** ring? There is a theory that the occipital bone is connected to the cervical vertebrae below. When the powerful sound waves rush into the throat cavity, it will cause the cervical vertebrae to vibrate, and then from the cervical vertebrae to the cervical vertebrae. Through upward conduction, the occipital bone vibrates. In addition, when the sound wave reaches the oropharyngeal cavity, it causes a large conduction force.

It directly affects the vibration of the occipital bone from the back of the oropharynx, and this part is very close to the "sphenoid sinus", so its ** *The vibration effect is

even stronger. When using the occipital bone to sing, one thing should be noted. The neck must be straight when speaking.

This posture can expand the larynx and pharyngeal cavity, make the air flow smooth, and create a strong air flow column that rises directly to the back of the soft palate, causing vibration of the occipital bone and increasing the intensity of the sound. When we raise our voice, we will feel a vibration in the back of our head. At this time, the upper and lower cries are connected together.

Experiments have shown that the effect of vocalization in the throat cavity alone is not great, the sound is not very loud, and the change of timbre is not very clear

This is because the laryngeal cavity is basically composed of soft tissue. When sound is produced in the soft vocal body, part of the sound is first absorbed;

Because the laryngeal cavity is small, the vocalization effect is not strong; and because There is no significant change in the throat cavity, and the timbre does not change much.

The above situations show that the use of upper and lower vaginal airflow depends on strong airflow, and then in good

throat, pharynx, and mouth , nasal cavities can only occur on the basis of tinnitus. Therefore, we need to get all the cooperation of the body and mind, and we need to specially exercise the functions of exhalation and blocking.

How to obtain the first ring (2)

2. The first ring and the vocal area

According to the pitch changes of the sound and the position of the first ring Different uses of , formed three sound areas: high sound area, middle sound area and low sound area

High-pitched area

Voicing is more focused on the head cavity, which is conducive to the use of skills in the high-pitched area. When singing and vocalizing, I feel a vibration in my forehead and cheekbones.

The sound produced has the characteristics of falsetto. At the same time, it should be noted that when singing in the high-pitched area, the movements of the nasopharyngeal cavity, soft palate, and muscles should not be excessively contracted, so that there is no room for the sound waves to flow, which affects the overtone sound effect.

Middle voice zone

Vocal production focuses on uniform harmonious sound, which is conducive to the development of the skills and characteristics of the middle voice zone. The mid-range area is where the low-pitched area and the high-pitched area connect.

It is necessary to adjust and control the volume of the high-pitched area and the low-pitched area evenly while maintaining smooth and unified sound

1. This vocal area plays a major role in vocal training. The music in the mid-range is soft, relaxed and bright. It should be noted

that if the throat, tongue and other muscles contract excessively during singing, the sound flow will be blocked, which will not only separate the mouth***

Ming, and without the support of the chest cavity, wrong sounds will appear.

1 Low-pitched area

The vocalization focuses on the chest cavity, which is beneficial to the singing skills in the low-pitched area. When singing and vocalizing, I can obviously feel the vibration in the chest

Dynamic, free, deep and deep feeling in the voice. It must be noted that when singing bass, if the neck muscles and tongue muscles contract too much, the sound of the middle and high voices will be lost, resulting in a dull and hoarse sound. It has a greater impact on the singing effect

3. Voice Changing Zone and Solutions to Voice Changing

I think everyone has a voice changing zone. Some people say that as long as you sing to a high position, voice changing will disappear.

The basis for this statement is insufficient. We must admit that the phenomenon of voice changing exists objectively. We should not be afraid of the phenomenon of voice changing psychologically. We must find various ways to solve it and study it creatively.

<1> What is the voice changing area? When singing and singing, from bass to treble, or from treble to low, an uncontrollable "cracked and stuck" sound suddenly appears

I suddenly feel that the upper and lower sounds are not unified. This kind of Unpleasant sounds

are "voice changes".

There are many reasons for "voice change", the main reason of which should be analyzed from the physiological aspect. Because the two vocal cords are not balanced during vocal use, one of the vocal cords is not tightened, and the balancing effect of the arytenoid cartilage is lost, resulting in broken sounds.

Or, when the "real voice" is produced, the vocal cords are close together, and the vocal cords are "tightened" due to the force of the laryngeal muscles. When making a "false voice", the vocal cords are not close together

The laryngeal muscles are not too strong and the vocal cords are relatively relaxed. When singing, these two vocal forces need to be well connected in order to

unify the sound. If the connection is not good and the "blow volume" is not adjusted in time, a weak, tearing or interrupted sound will immediately appear.

Broken notes are generally prone to occur on high-pitched extreme notes and notes near timbre changes

. Treble is generally produced at E2, F2, #F2. The "voice changing area" generally includes an interval of three semitones.

The note with the greatest change is called the "voice changing point".

Because the physiological conditions of each person’s voice are different, the position of the voice change point has moved.

Soprano: Some sopranos have unclear voice changes, but it is difficult for dramatic sopranos to change their voices. The voice change is above and below #F;

Mezzo-soprano: This voice is more complex, with a wide range and great changes in timbre. There are generally two voice changing areas. One is above and below F2.

Second is within the range from #C to F2. Dramatic and low mezzo-soprano are in E2 and G2, lyrical ones are around E-flat;

Tenor: Most of the voice changing areas are in #F and F2, including some in G2 and A2-flat.

Baritone: The high baritone voice changes at E flat, E2, and F2, and the low baritone voice changes at D2 and #C2.

<2> Methods to solve the problem of voice change

<1> Use "closed singing method" to solve the problem of voice change

The Italian "Bel Canto Method" solves the problem of voice change The physiological phenomenon is based on the technique of vowel variation

. Add "o" and "OU" to the variation. For example: the word "mother" is , in the normal middle voice area, add the a sound, in the

voice change area, add the O sound to change , and after the voice change area, add sound becomes the vowel sound of . After such

changes, the false sound caused by the voice change gradually gave way to a bright sound. When solving the problem of voice change, be sure to master the preparations for voice change in advance. When you are about to switch from one sound area to the next, you need to immediately use the method of mixing the sound in different sound areas to avoid inconsistency in the sound areas. Causes undesirable phenomena such as larynx and nasal sounds.

For example: when a soprano changes from the mid-range to the high-range, the voice change point is usually at the F2 pitch. At this time, you need to move forward one second

on the E2 flat (other analogies), stabilize the larynx on the E flat, and correct the changes in the vocal cords. And use the technique of vowel variation

to control the singing with a weak tone, and use the head cavity to adjust the singing. When singing F2, the voice will naturally break through
