I will never forget the touching speech of a program host at a personal concert commemorating the first anniversary of Professor Shen Xiang's death. He is in his forties, thin and of medium build. Everyone thinks he is a famous conductor. He stood in the center of the stage excitedly and said in a trembling voice, "I am a student of Professor Shen Xiang. (A burst of well-meaning laughter) Don't laugh. Listen to my hoarse voice. How can I be a student of Professor Shen Xiang? " He looked dignified, but his voice became sonorous. He said loudly, word for word, "It's true. I have been singing under Professor Shen Xiang for many years. As we all know, Professor Shen Xiang is the greatest vocal educator in China. Professor Shen Xiang once asked me, "Do you want to learn to sing? "I said, I want to learn, but my voice is hoarse and I can't hear each other. How can I learn to sing? Professor Shen Xiang said seriously, "If you want to learn, you can learn". He said, "Have you ever seen a rooster crow? The cock is so small, but it can open its mouth and hold its head high, and it can be heard for miles. We have such a tall body that our mouths and heads are many times bigger than roosters. How can I not sing loudly? ..... "So I started learning vocal music ... (Applause)
This passage is very intriguing. Singing is not a singer's patent; Learning to sing is not something that only professional artists can do. As long as you are willing to learn, you can learn to sing regardless of the sound conditions. Because, whether singers or ordinary people, their singing organs are the same.
Generally speaking, the vocal organs of singing are composed of the following parts:
Respiratory organs, vocal organs, vocal organs, vocal organs and auditory organs.
(1) Respiratory organs: mouth, nose, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchus, lung, chest and diaphragm.
The lungs are connected to the chest, with ribs outside and diaphragm below. Due to the relaxation of ribs and the up-and-down movement of diaphragm, the chest cavity expands and contracts. When inhaling, the ribs open, the diaphragm extends downward and the chest expands; When exhaling, the ribs relax, that is, the diaphragm lifts and the chest narrows. The diaphragm is a large flat muscle. It exists at the boundary between the lower thoracic cavity and the abdominal cavity. Breath is the driving force of singing, which comes from the activity of respiratory organs.
(2) Vocal organs: vocal cords are located in the middle of the larynx, which is the pronunciation body of singing. Sound is produced by the vibration of the pronunciation body.
Is the vibration of vocal cords passive or automatic? There are two theories at present. Miller first put forward the aerodynamic theory, also known as muscle tension theory. He thinks that the vibration of vocal cords is passive, and the active aspect is that the breath from trachea vibrates vocal cords. The other theory is the neural timing theory proposed by Yu Song in 1950. Also known as myoclonic theory. He believes that the vibration of vocal cords is automatic and controlled by recurrent laryngeal nerve. The publication of this theory caused a sensation in the field of laryngology and explored a new way for the research field of vocal physiology.
The larynx is the main organ of singing pronunciation. People call it "Adam's apple" verbally. A man's Adam's apple is in his neck, which can be seen from his appearance. Learning to sing only requires a simple understanding that the larynx consists of four cartilages, namely thyroid, cricoid cartilage, arytenoid cartilage, epiglottic cartilage and various muscles. The larynx is located between the base of the tongue and the trachea. It is connected with the upper lingual tube and the lower trachea. Behind the larynx is the esophagus and behind the esophagus is the spine.
(3 )*** Vocal organs: * * Vocal organs include the cavities of all vocal systems. Such as: sinus, nasal cavity, sinus, oral cavity, pharyngeal cavity (laryngopharynx, oropharynx, nasopharynx), laryngeal cavity and thoracic cavity. The vocal cords produce tones. The vibration induced by asphalt in the cavity is called * * *. At present, vocal music usually divides * * into three situations. The first type is divided into head cavity * * *, oral cavity * * *, chest cavity * * *. The second is divided into upper * * * and lower * * *. The third is adjustability and irreconcilability. The singing function of * * singing cavity is to expand and beautify singing.
(4) Phonetic organs: Phonetic organs refer to lips, teeth, tongue, lower palate and palatal plugs (soft palate and hard palate), which are segmented pronunciation organs used for articulation, pronunciation and language formation.
(5) Auditory organ: refers to the auditory analyzer of the ear and inner ear.
The above five parts are the vocal organs of the human body, which are interrelated and mutually controlled organic whole.
Let me tell you a "little secret" first: Before I studied vocal music systematically, I often deliberately sang with my throat pinched. Although I sing very well, the volume is very low. The louder the voice, the more tense the throat muscles and chin are, and even the little C can't be sung. After learning the scientific vocal methods, the vocal range was expanded to three octaves, and a strong contralto was produced, and the volume could span the grand symphony orchestra.
If you haven't learned to sing before reading this book, please don't rush to learn more vocal methods. It is best to remember six words first: the sound channels are connected and the vocal cords are tense. After understanding the structure of human singing organs, you can open your mouth and throat as easily as yawning. Song, open your back as a door and sing with a smile. Then start with imitation, listen to new songs, teach you to sing karaoke, and you can sing. Listen to the sound, listen to the music, and you can learn well without being nervous. it wont hurt you to try it
We live in the era of reform and opening up. The fast-paced working life makes most friends sing every day, but they have no chance to learn to sing systematically. Many successful people in their careers, such as entrepreneurs, writers, administrative officials and generals with troops, have great musical talent, but they just have no time to develop it. Teenagers like music very much, but they have no choice but to study hard. It costs a lot of money to invite teachers to take vocal lessons. They can't let their parents give them too much burden. A very talented friend of mine once told me that I had nothing to do with singing. I was afraid to sing loudly when I was young. Now, as the father of the child, I am even more embarrassed to sing loudly. I said to him, look at this book I wrote. This book is specially written for those of you who want to sing, are embarrassed to sing, and have no time to learn singing from the teacher. This book mainly teaches you how to open your mind and learn singing skills. Learning to sing is different from studying medicine, architecture or other subjects. You must study theory and professional skills first, then get the qualification certificate, and then study practice. Learn to sing first, learn while singing, learn while singing.
Hearing organs are very important in learning to sing. To put it bluntly, you must be able to listen with your ears! Maybe you have realized that listening to OK tapes is a good way. OK belt is economical and convenient. Listening to OK tapes after study and work can not only relax tension and fatigue, but also give you pleasure, thus improving the efficiency of study and work. You can also cooperate with my little book as your vocal music teacher.
How to listen? Is to learn to recognize sounds with your ears. In the process of learning songs, listen to the melody first, that is, learn to sing new songs first. Secondly, listen to the sound and establish a correct sound concept and sound image. Listen to others sing, relax naturally, and gradually master scientific vocal methods and singing skills. Furthermore, we should pay attention to how others pronounce words, how to breathe, how to control their own voices and how to express their feelings. Learn to listen to the artistic expression and treatment of songs.
While listening to others, pay attention to yourself. You know, there are two ways for a singer to listen to his own voice: the first way is that after the voice is emitted, it spreads through the air outside the body and then sends it back to his ears. This way is the same as others' listening style; The second way is the sound emitted by the speed of sound, which immediately travels from the pharyngeal tube to the eardrum, and vibration occurs inside the eardrum. The sound of this second channel is inaudible to others. Because this sound is a shortcut, it is much louder than the sound returned from outside the body. The singer mainly listens to the sound effect of the second channel, which is completely different from what others hear. Therefore, it is often difficult for singers to tell whether their voices are correct or not. "Stakeholders lose, bystanders see clearly." This sentence is most suitable for use here. How to tell if your voice is correct? Record the songs you sing with a tape recorder. Listen repeatedly, ponder carefully, find out your beautiful timbre, and then gradually consolidate it. Imitate your good voice and get rid of your bad voice. In addition, you can also use the contrast method, the same song, the OK singing method and the recording of your own singing method, sentence by sentence. How did he sing this sentence? How do I sing this sentence? Which sound is better? Think about it. Sing a good song, three points are singing and seven points are thinking. Including many professional singers, most of the voice problems are due to the vague concept of singing skills. This "listening" and "thinking" is not difficult to do, is it?
3. Be sure to learn to read music.
Here I make a request, learn to sing must learn to read music! I understand that many friends who are learning to sing now can't listen to a song completely by listening to the score. We went to the army to teach singing and found that quite a few young soldiers could not compose music. This often creates a place where a song is easy to sing wrong, and everyone is equally wrong. This company sings wrong like this, and so does that company.
As mentioned earlier, listening to songs is an important means of learning, but it is by no means just listening to songs without looking at music scores. Listening without looking at the score can only be a rough listening. Even if you listen to a singer, he will not sing the soundtrack completely accurately. It's not that the singer made a mistake, but that the song he sang was created twice by himself, which is different from the composer's original song. Learning to sing, only when listening to songs and reading music scores, is a good way.
In addition, we should read more music and improve our listening ability. Perhaps, when you watch the soundtrack of the first new song, you won't taste any sweetness. After reading a few songs, you will feel that in the process of reading music, you can not only choose your favorite songs, but also broaden your horizons and enrich your mind. Keep at it, read a song every day, or read a song every Monday, and your musical accomplishment and artistic thinking will be improved.
It is not difficult to learn to read music. Just practice solfeggio for a quarter of an hour every day. Learn notation first. Most popular songs have music scores. Further study the staff. Many art songs or songs accompanied by piano are recorded by staff.
Learning to sing requires enthusiasm, patience and perseverance. Shakespeare said: Ignorance is the curse of God, and knowledge is the wing that flies to heaven.
Often learn to sing and write. Many professional singers have failed to do this. Write what? Write a conceptual understanding of sound; Analysis of writing and reading music works; Write an understanding of the musical image of the song; Write opinions on songs from content and other aspects; Write a desk analysis of the new score; Experience in writing old accounts ...
You will find that your understanding and imagination are different when you learn to sing. Practice more, read more and write more, and explore your potential, so that you will never sing, and you can sing as you please. At a certain stage, she will leap into sublimation and become a popular singer.
Let MTV and computer multimedia teach you to sing.
Broadening one's horizons by means of modern science and technology is another good way to learn vocal music.
In 1990s, a large number of MTV movies provided convenience for vocal music lovers to learn intuitively. The layman looks at the excitement, and the expert looks at the doorway. When watching MTV MTV, you should consciously pay attention to watching some award-winning musicals. For example, on the wings of singing, I love Wuzhishan, I love Wanquan River, I wish you peace, the song of 1234, soldiers, Mount Tai on the Yellow River, the length of the Great Wall and so on. You can record these award-winning works on a video recorder and watch them several times when you have time. First, we should learn from experts by watching MTV, improve our appreciation level and discrimination ability, and gradually get the correct sound concept. Second, it depends on how the experts perform and how to make the voice and emotion highly unified. Third, suppose, suppose it's me, suppose it's a different singing method, what will the effect be? Through MTV, you can learn more about some music works and enrich your music knowledge. You can also try to do some song singing analysis and song criticism, and correct yourself while commenting on others. If possible, if you can take photos of yourself and listen to your own videos while practicing singing, you will be a singer, an appreciator and a critic, and you will be greatly improved. There are also some science and technology workers and primary and secondary school students who have more opportunities to use computers. Then make full use of the computer multimedia CD-ROM and the functions of sound blaster and visual blaster to learn vocal music in all directions.
5. Feel it with your heart.
When China singers went to Italy to study vocal music, they were surprised to find that there were not so many vocal teaching materials in this country with more than 300 years of Bel Canto, but there, no matter teenagers or white-haired old people, they could deeply sing many arias in classical operas. Even the workers in charge of carrying luggage in the airport sang a few words casually, and the voice was so beautiful and moving. No wonder they can have a world-class singer like Pavarotti.
When singing, you should feel it with your heart and touch people with your feelings. When words can't express feelings, only singing can express them. The following chapters will tell you the skills and methods of singing respectively, but you must never forget that despite thousands of ingenious ideas, love always comes first.
I am most willing to listen to the songs of the soldiers, and I am also willing to listen to the songs shouted by the soldiers. They walk and sing, sit and sing, and watch movies and sing before eating every day. Even if there are three people left for a class meeting, they should carefully direct two people to sing loudly. Class to class, even to company, one by one, hold your breath, blush, straighten your throat, and those who don't play the devil's advocate won't give up, full of gunpowder. This kind of singing is an expression of the youthful vitality and enthusiasm of soldiers. I often stand still with a smile, listening to the soldiers shouting songs, but my eyes are full of tears. Shout out the song, shout out the fear, shout out the determination to go ahead, shout out the high will, shout out the pride of a generation of soldiers. Of course, I hope soldiers can sing better.
I hope that one day, ordinary people in our country can reach three or five people together and sing beautiful harmony with only one mouth; Teenagers generally sing beautifully in a scientific way; The old man still maintains the voice of youth; Other countries have learned China's scientific folk singing. ...
