How to open your voice when singing, and what does it feel like when you open it? How to practice? I am a student and I love music. I think what you said is very good. But really no...

Singing and opening one's voice is the most important preparation before singing. Especially when an artist holds a concert, whether the voice is opened or not is related to the quality of the entire concert. Opening one's voice is just because of people. Some people are used to playing "du" and follow the pitch from high to low. Some people are used to pronouncing "ah" or pronouncing the "mother" sound with their mouth closed. This is entirely based on your own personal habits. The most important thing is that no matter which sound you pronounce, you should do it from high to low. Don't shout when you reach the high pitch, which will hurt your throat. Just reach a height that is comfortable for you. As long as the bass is as low as your normal speaking voice, no matter how low it is, it will hurt your throat

How to sing

1. Breath

When talking about this topic, I feel a little confused. , because this is the hardest thing to express in words. Before I started singing, I practiced bel canto for two years, which gave me a deep understanding. The basics of breath helped me a lot. Generally speaking, people who have never learned vocal music have a very flat voice, and they pronounce it in the position where they usually speak (throat). We call it "white" sound, without color or filter. Below I will describe the method of practicing bel canto.

The sound should originate from the lower abdomen. Imagine that the sound passes through the back of the spine, to the back of the head, and to the back of the mouth. The entire sound should be upright and backward. Please look for this feeling: you take a big bite of an apple, expose your upper teeth, and make a "hmm" sound while biting it down. Feel the sound at the back of the mouth and the upper part of the nasal cavity. This is one of the bel canto sounds. ***Ming point. Next, lower your breath, expand your lower abdomen, press your lower abdomen slightly, and speak at the same position. For male voices, press the Adam's apple. For female voices, focus on the position of the voice at the back of the head. You will find that the sound is louder than before. Regular practice against the wall will help your voice, because leaning against the wall can contact your back spine, making it easier for you to find the feeling, and the sound of the chest can vibrate with the wall, making it easier for you to find the chest** *Ming feeling. Start with the practice of "Mi~Ma" and gradually increase it, which will help you practice high-pitched breath; then practice from high to low, repeat this way, and one day you will find the feeling. Bel Canto pays attention to "transparency", and often imagines that one's voice is upright, not flat; another thing that pays attention to is "sound". After the sound passes through the chest or the chest above the chest, it will be very round and round. full. To experience the humming sound, you can do this: close your mouth and make a "hmm" sound with a slightly affectionate feeling. If the "hmm" is longer, you will feel your head and chest vibrating. If your breath is good, This kind of ringing sound will add a lot of color to your voice. If you listen carefully to the speeches of some tall Americans, you will know what chest ringing is (the chest structure of foreigners is more likely to produce chest ringing).

Another thing I want to mention is lung capacity. Singers need a large lung capacity to sing, such as some very long and breathless melodies. Don't end up with red faces and heavy breathing after singing. Lung capacity requires regular exercise to maintain. In addition, mastering certain skills can make up for some lack of lung capacity. First of all, you need to practice your breath. A good vocal method can control the flow of sound through the throat. For example, when singing the sentence "...I'm not afraid of you betraying me...", a singer with unstable breath may suddenly change "Afraid" "The sound of the word was sung in an explosive way, and the air that was originally insufficient in the lungs was released immediately. It would be strange if there was a long sentence that did not allow for breathing, and it would not suffocate him to death. Singers with good breath skills can control the flow of these pops, and there will be no flapping sound in the microphone when singing. So I suggest you put a candle in front of your mouth when practicing your voice, and try to keep the candle from shaking while practicing! This way your Qi will remain in your body for a longer period of time. Think about it, do you hold it in for a long time by exhaling all the time, or do you hold it in and hold it in for a long time? Of course, this also requires the singer to relax and not be nervous. When you are nervous, your heart beats faster and your breath becomes unsteady

I can only say so much here, and it all depends on perception. However, I would like to remind you that voice training is the basis for singing pop songs. Do not use voice training methods to perform pop songs directly. That will be too artificial, and you will be like Yan Weiwen singing "nothing".

As for the use of voice in popular songs, my point of view is that as long as it fits the artistic conception of the song, it is okay to shout or break, but these are absolutely prohibited in bel canto, so we have to learn from each other's strengths, because we are not for We practice bel canto to sing bel canto. We practice bel canto in order to sing popular songs well, just like martial arts requires practicing horse stance. Have you ever seen someone squatting on the horse stance during a fight?

Some friends said that this kind of expression is difficult to understand. If you want me to tell you who among the pop singers has a clear breath, it is easier to understand based on your feelings. This is also an effective method. Personally, I think that female singers should listen more to "Zhang Huimei", she has a naturally transparent breath; male singers should listen more to "Man Wenjun", he really relies on breath to sing. In addition, Jacky Cheung The breath is very good, but for teaching, Man Wenjun is more suitable

2. Treble

This is a question that friends like to ask the most. In their words, because the treble is "enough" "Pull", haha! Let me add again, good singing needs to take into account many aspects. It cannot be said that the higher the treble, the better the singing. Indeed, good treble can add power to the climax of the song, but I advise friends not to only know the value of treble and ignore the mid-bass. In fact, the full mid-bass is also very contagious

Sing high notes When speaking, the breath must be based on the lower abdomen and Dantian. The "Dantian Qi" that Beijing dialect pays attention to also refers to this vocal position.

Looking for Feelings 1: If you were a girl and suddenly there was a mouse on your shoes, what would you do? It is estimated that there will be a long "ah~" sound, and there will also be a "false voice" sound position. After you calm down, if you "Ah~" you look at it for a moment, most of the time you won't be able to "Ah" anymore. Why? Because the moment you receive a fright, your lower abdomen is tense (think about the feeling of being frightened, are your muscles all over the body tense?). Because of this foundation and a strong airflow (understandable) It smells like singing), it goes straight to the throat, it's strange that the voice is not high. Therefore, you can interpret the feeling of hitting a high note as "tension" and "invigoration". Remember, everything is based on the lower abdomen. To sing a high note, you don't have to raise your head and pull it up. It is a kind of rebound force that feels the center of gravity downward.

Feeling 2: Have you ever seen a rubber water pipe? What should I do if I want the water in the water pipe to surge further? Tighten the front end of the water pipe. If the gap is small, the pressure will increase and the water will rush farther. In fact, high notes do not necessarily have to be very loud. Some singers sing very loudly when they sing high notes. We say that they are singing with strength and lung capacity, not with breath and skills. If you imagine the faucet theory, you should be able to understand some truth.

Look for the feeling 3: There is a big stone on the ground. Move it up. You bend down and count in your mouth: "One, two, three, go..." I think you must have used your breath for the word "go". I won’t say more, just feel it, there is something heavy around you... Haha! These are just some methods I created to let you feel the breath. They are informal, but very effective.

I would also like to tell you that the ability to express high notes is related to the condition of your own voice. If you have a naturally high voice, it is a great advantage. For example, "Sun Nan" has a typical high voice, and the performance of high notes will not be so strenuous. . Singers with poor voice conditions must rely on a lot of breath and methods, but no matter whether the voice condition is good or not, the sound is sung through breath, just like a cigarette passing through a filter, and the sound will be more beautiful if it is filtered.

In addition, I also tell you a psychological method. When singing high notes, imagine that you are singing in front of the vast sea, and you can't see the sea and sky. Isn't this scenery worth shouting out?

3. Methods of exercising vital capacity

There are many reasons for the decline in vital capacity test values ??year after year. The main reasons are: lack of effective physical exercise methods and insufficient physical exercise. time. There are many ways to exercise lung capacity. Here are three briefly introduced.

Method 1: Regularly do some freehand exercises such as chest expansion and arm raising.

Method 2: When practicing endurance running, pay attention to regularity, coordination of running and breathing, appropriate distance, and moderate intensity.

Method 3: Practice diving or swimming. In the water, not only do you have to keep moving your arms, but you also have to overcome the resistance of the water and breathe. This is a good way to improve your lung capacity.

There are many other ways to exercise to increase lung capacity: playing football, basketball, running back and forth, etc. It should be noted that no matter which method you choose, you must practice it regularly to be effective.

The mechanism of the above exercises is to increase the strength of respiratory muscles, improve the elasticity of the lungs, increase and deepen the depth of breathing, improve and improve the efficiency and function of lung breathing, thereby improving the vital capacity test value. purpose.
