(Anonymous) 2014-01-24 10:04 pm (UTC)(link)You can belt quietly, although it's associated with strength/power and strong emotion (just as singing in your upper register (i.e., singing classically) tends to be associated with stronger emotion), and it's not terribly easy. But yeah, singing loudly != belting, that just means you're you're pushing more. Belting vs. singing in your head voice has to do with where you're placing the voice. And it is kind of unnatural--I get why my teachers didn't like it because when you learn to sing properly (i.e., classically), you're not asking the voice to do something weird. Women and men are meant to sing upper notes in their head voices, it's less...wrenching, I guess, on the voice. (And also, a lot of voice teachers are huge snobs ;) Another more-natural vs. less-natural thing is vibrato (it's natural once you hit adolescence) vs. straight-tone. Pop music plays around all the time with vibrato (sometimes I'll straighten out a note and then sliiiide into the vibrato at the end--it develops the note emotionally. I picked that up from Barbra Streisand ;)but the typical aria is sung with full vibrato. But just because something is less natural doesn't mean it shouldn't be explored. It's all good :)
