vocal projection
03/01/2010

On my Everyone Can Sing voice workshop, I teach the open-throated calling technique, used by most styles of professional singers. Anyone can learn this and benefit from singing more powerfully.

To project or ‘throw’ your voice using open-throated calling, you need to be relaxed, adopt the right posture and breathe correctly. Finally the shape of the mouth and the vowel you make complete the picture. I teach all of these things on my class in a fun and practical way.

Most people show significant improvement in projection and this helps with dynamics and to communicate the emotion of the song. Participants generally find the open-throated calling technique energising and the new power in their voice to be liberating.
