HOME :: Arts-and-Entertainment / Music How to Sing With Resonance That is Pure Magic By Jane D Thomson

One of the qualities that truly sets famous singers apart from the wannabes is the ability to sing with a ringing, resonant tone throughout their vocal range. For a lucky few, it's a gift that comes naturally. But here's a little known fact for you: you can develop beautiful resonance and strength if you're willing to practice these singing tips.

First, you need to have a solid foundation with your vocal technique, especially when it comes to proper breathing and support. The worst mistake you can make is to blow too much air through your vocal chords when you're trying to sing.

Overblowing creates too much tension in your throat, and abdomen and can result in a thin, squeaky noise that's difficult to control.

Singing Exercises that will Develop Beautiful Resonance When You Sing

Hum 
Humming is perhaps the easiest way to help you sing with a beautiful resonance because it is easy and gentle on your voice. It makes it almost impossible to overblow your vocal chords. Keep focused on staying relaxed and keeping proper posture.

Vocal Mixing 
If you've got a decent foundation in singing technique, you can use your mixed voice to keep your sound warm and alive. Keep a slight hint of chest voice when singing high notes, and a hint of head voice when singing low notes. This results in a gorgeous, full sound in your high range, and a stronger, more resonant low register.

Plus, singing in a mixed voice completely eliminates vocal breaks, and allows you to move effortlessly and smoothly from high to low notes. A word of caution though: Never try to sing too loud as it will push your voice out of tune, and you can kiss that beautiful resonance goodbye.

Anchor Your Tone 
This is a little advanced, but you'll get it if you keep trying. Whether you're singing high in your head voice, deep in your chest voice, or with a mixed voice, always think of a very relaxed open space in the back of your mouth. It's this openness that allows your voice to echo and resonate through your entire body. The effect is almost like surround sound on your stereo. It's beautiful, powerful, hypnotic - and well worth the effort it takes to develop.

Singing with resonance is what creates your own unique vocal signature. It gives you the voice that amateurs will try - and fail - to imitate. It's a technique that takes some dedication and commitment to learn, but the reward is the look of awe you'll see in the face of anyone listening to you.
