Music Art Examination-Vocal Singing Skills Training Method

Vocal music is not only an art subject, but also an examination content of the Music Art Examination. As a singer, the first thing you must have is solid basic skills training. So what are the training methods for vocal music? Below I have compiled the vocal training methods for you, hoping to help you!

1. The use of breath

A good singer must first adjust his breath to start. Breathing is crucial to singing. Good breathing support is the motivation and foundation for singing. Therefore, strict breathing training should be done during practice. Inhalation and exhalation should be fully practiced to form a conditioned reflex, so that you can sing when you want to, just open your mouth and breathe. Be prepared and in control.

The sound and the breath must be harmonious and even and thin. It does not work if you have too much breath and too little sound or too little breath and make too much sound! When singing high notes, our breath should sink, which is called "qi sinking to the Dantian". When singing mid-bass, the breath should be slightly raised. If the sound is strong, the breath should be deep and even. If the sound is weak, the breath should be steady and soft. However, in different singing styles, different emotions, and different styles of works, we must combine breath techniques to create better singing effects.

Whether one’s own conditions are good or insufficient, using breath flexibly requires long-term practice. There are many ways to practice Qi, such as purring, blowing out candles, and rinsing the water with your breath while gargling. In short, when singing, you should pay attention to natural and moderate inhalation, neither too much nor too little. If you use the method of gargling your mouth to practice Qi, if the breath intensity is not properly controlled, you will immediately choke on the water. Therefore, the delicate use of breath is very important when the singer sings the song.

2. Vocal practice

In vocal music teaching, the voice practice process is the most important link in the overall teaching process. It is the most basic and simple exercise for training vocal skills. , which is to extract the most basic and simple motive or Shaoxing opera that constitutes the melody of the song, match it with simple vowels or syllables, and use it as accompaniment in the appropriate range to move upward or downward to practice singing.

1. Before practicing voice

Before practicing voice, you must first prepare yourself mentally and express your emotions with the help of melody. For example, the scale etude 543211 can guide you to use your imagination, add the understanding of "Rainbow" to this melody, and express it with your voice. In this way, the simple and boring vocalization will have fresh vitality, and you can listen to it in a happy mood. Accomplish vocal training goals.

2. Practice with words

Practice with words. Correct vocal exercises can help us form the correct position of the larynx, liberate the back of the head, make the vocal cords and breath work closely together, adjust appropriately, and achieve ideal sound effects when singing high, medium, low, and strong notes.

3. Perfect ringing

1. Chest ringing

Chest ringing is often performed in the lower part of the voice. Many, in fact, in all vocal areas of each of our voices, the chest cavity component is needed. It is just a question of the proportion. You must pay attention to relaxation when contacting, and you must not pursue the ringing too much and compress the larynx, mistaking the thick guttural sound for chest ringing.

2. Oral tinnitus

Oral tinnitus is the first tinnitus area after the sound comes from the throat. It is a very important part of singing. It is the basis of ringing in the chest and ringing in the head. When making sounds, the mouth naturally opens up and down, the smile muscles are slightly raised, and the lower jaw is naturally lowered for a while; pull, and the upper jaw feels like an upper body. It is necessary to naturally loosen the relevant parts of the oral cavity so that the pharynx, throat and cavity are unobstructed, so as to obtain a good sounding effect.

3. Ringing in the head cavity

Ringing in the head cavity is often called head voice. It is the most charismatic component of our voices. It makes the sound bright, brilliant and penetrating, especially in the treble, and almost determines the quality of the sound. It is best to use humming when communicating, that is, yawning with your mouth closed, your lips slightly closed, the emptyer the mouth, the better, the nose and pharyngeal cavity are opened, and the passage of breath is left as wide as possible. Feel The sound moves forward and upward, and the center of the eyebrows is vibrating, thus producing a brighter and more concentrated sound.

4. Language in Singing

Austin once said: Without good reading skills, any voice cannot be regarded as a truly good instrument. ?For a long time, the art of singing has been loved by people for its beautiful singing and distinctive and touching language. So some people say that singing is moving music. And its moving part lies in the perfect combination of sound and emotion, which is what we call "sound and emotion". To meet this requirement, one must master the pronunciation methods of articulating words, articulating words, and refining sounds to return rhymes.

Articulation in singing

Articulation in singing is different from articulation in speaking. First of all, it requires breathing support, strong tone quality and ringing; secondly, it requires attention to the articulation parts. The beginning of the sound is the initial consonant of the word, because the clear and powerful pronunciation of the initial consonant can better express the emotion of the song. When making contact, you can first use a separate vowel sound, such as "ah" instead of lyrics to make contact, focus on singing the vowel sound, and focus on the pronunciation accurately to help correct the phenomenon of inaccurate pronunciation.

Articulation in singing

There are strict requirements on how to open the mouth for articulation. Opening it small or wide will affect the timbre and timbre of the voice. Correct articulation is based on breath, opening the mouth wide according to the state of the vowel production, and using the vocal cavity to amplify the sound. The most important point is to maintain the stability of the mouth shape. No matter how the vocal melody changes or how to breathe in a long sentence, the mouth shape cannot change.

Ending of Chinese characters in singing

When singing, each word should have an ending, which not only prepares the sound for the next word, but also ensures the clarity and coherence between the two words. It plays the role of connecting the previous and the following. The ending of the word must be gently closed, not only to keep the shape of the mouth unchanged, but also to close the sound gently and cleanly. ;
