HOW TO SING WITH POWER!
How do you create a powerful singing voice no matter what register you are in? If done correctly, it’s all done through breath and diaphragm support. Understanding how it works and what it feels like are key. How would you naturally increase the power in your singing voice? It’s exactly the same as increasing power in your speaking voice.
As you inhale, your breath pressure comes under the vocal folds causing the vocal folds to vibrate. If there is a good amount of pressure coming from the muscles around the rib cage, diaphragm and stomach muscles, the vocal folds really thicken up and give you a solid powerful sound.
The diaphragm is a thin muscle that sits at the base of your chest and above your abdomen. The diaphragm is located in between your stomach and your lungs. The diaphragm contracts and flattens out when you breathe in and it relaxes as you exhale the air out of your lungs. The power comes when you control the exhale.
Since the power in your voice comes from diaphragm and breath support. You should feel tight muscles around your ribcage and torso, open throat, the sound coming from the chest with power and ease. You will feel all of this as your exhale while singing.
Here is an exercise: slowly breath in, you are flattening the diaphragm and you will feel the area below the rib cage expand, tightening your stomach muscles; now control your breath as you exhale in a slow steady stream. The combo of both moves together gives you the strength, power and control of your voice. This will help you control your voice and not waver in pitch.
MUSIC QUOTE FOR THE DAY:
Music was my refuge. I could crawl into the space between the notes and curl my back to loneliness.
