Description:
What is chest voice? Very simply, it’s your speaking voice function! We refer to different sections of your voice as registers, meaning the vocal folds function in a specific way, and there’s an accompanying tone quality that results. In chest or speaking voice, your vocal folds are shorter and thicker, because that’s how they create low, strong sounds.
In part one of this three part lesson, we’ll use a few different sounds to find your chest voice function. In part one, I’ll teach you my favorite chest voice warm ups, which you can use daily, or a few times a week. And in part three, we’ll practice incorporating chest voice with other registers.
Let’s dive right in!
