Week 92: Voice Qualities (Part 1)

I'm dealing with "Voice Qualities" for several weeks relating 'Sound to the Anatomy' when singing.

1. A "Voice Quality" refers to a type of sound we can produce, & which is directly related to movements of the component parts of the larynx.
2. A "Voice Quality" is determined by the position of the larynx in the throat & how the moving parts of the larynx relate to each other.
3. A learned component, such as the native spoken language & regional accent, can also determine a "Voice Quality".
4. Before naming the Voice Qualities I refer to when training a voice, it is important to state that I do not subscribe to any 'Method'!
5. Before embarking on Voice Quality usage next week I here state my singing influences: Bel Canto, Husler, Estill & my own extensive research!
