1. Breathing method and breath application

For popular singing, the decisive factor is not the amount of breathing, but the flexibility of the respiratory system, that is, to keep breathing The organs are excited and full of energy. For example: people laughing and crying, vendors shouting, drill commands, etc., these can all capture this feeling. In terms of breath use, popular singing methods are generally divided into slow inhalation and slow exhalation, fast inhalation and quick exhalation, and fast inhalation and slow exhalation. These three ventilation methods are used interchangeably according to different styles and rhythms of songs.

2. ***Voice tone

Generally, when singing popular songs, try to use natural sounds in the bass and alto ranges, which is what is known as the "white voice". At the same time, the combination of breath and sound is also essential. When singing high notes, since the pitch has exceeded the natural range, it is natural to use the resonance cavity when necessary. But the tinnitus used at this time is only the nasal cavity, frontal sinus and other front areas of the tinnitus in the head cavity. In this way, the singing voice will not sound too three-dimensional like Bel Canto or ethnic singing, but it will still be exciting.

3. Sound position

Popular singing methods emphasize "singing high and low", while bel canto and ethnic singing methods mostly use "singing low and high". When singing popular songs, we often use real voice-based singing methods to express the reality of the song content and be more relevant to the reality of our lives. The so-called "high pitch and low singing" means that the higher the note, the lower it is sung to combine with the breath. This kind of sound sounds more solid and has strong penetrating power. Bel canto and ethnic singing mostly use falsetto or mixed voice as the main singing technique to express the rich inner emotional changes. The so-called "bass singing" means that no matter the midrange or the bass, try to unify the sound position with the treble to achieve elegant harmony.

Edit this paragraph for development prospects

Now, popular music singing in European and American countries has developed to a very high level, and our country’s popular singing has also evolved from its initial stage in many years of singing practice. The imitation is gradually becoming mature, but there is still a certain gap compared with European and American countries. We must have a deeper understanding of the artistic characteristics of pop singing in order to make our country's pop singing develop faster and better and gradually integrate with international standards. As a part of Chinese music culture, popular singing, together with Bel Canto and National Music, promotes the vigorous development of my country's vocal art.
