This chapter explains the natural ranges and registers of the typical singer. The ranges were explained as follows: for men, because they generally have a wider range, can go anywhere from about low a in base clef to high g in treble, and for women it is generally from about high g in base clef to high b in treble. Based upon a musical symposium that brought musicians and scientists together to clearly define each register of used by the voice. the first of the 4 registers agreed upon was the lowest, vocal fry. the second is the referred to as the chest voice, the second lowest register. register 3 is referred to as the head voice. The last register is the highest register, the whistle. there is a sub category to register 2, 2a, which is a mixture of 2 and 3.
Concepts:
There are 4 distinct registers with which a voice can occupy.
You must learn to carry one register through another to make and easy transition for the audience listening.
Words:
Vocal Fry
Chest
Head
Whistle
Connections: It isn't fair that guys can have such a large range. Also I need to work my cricothyroid muscle more so that it doesn't get bullied as much at school by the big meanie, my thyroarytenoid muscle.
