Have you ever wondered how to sing like Christina Aguilera? These steps can take you to that level.
Steps
Step 1. Start with some warm-up exercises (such as solfeggi)
Warming up is very important, especially for that style of singing.
Step 2. Christina Aguilera uses the chest register:
to use it, do not widen your mouth when you sing. Keep your cheeks together, practice opening your mouth more vertically, keeping your cheeks close to your teeth, even in the higher notes.
Step 3. When we sing high notes, we have a tendency to produce the voice higher in the throat
To get a powerful voice even on the highest notes, open your mouth more vertically. For example: when you pull a horn, the sound gets louder and louder. Try to imagine your voice getting louder the more you open your mouth.
Step 4. Roaring (growling in technical terms) and scraping are two of the characteristics of Christina's style
These are dangerous techniques for the voice, but if you want to do them, clear your throat. Do you hear the noise you make? Apply that sound at the beginning of the words. Keep your tongue down.
Step 5. Belting is one of the most important techniques of his singing style
To practice, use this warm-up method: produce an ascending and descending "Aaa" sound, increasing in volume each time. Eventually you will be able to use this sound in normal singing at will as well.
Method 1 of 1: Alternative to Belting
Step 1. Try changing octaves or pitches within half a second, making an "Oooo" sound
Step 2. Keep practicing these methods and your sounds will begin to adjust to a new vocal range
Practice is very important, so warm up every morning and every night before going to sleep.
Advice
- Drink water before singing to make your voice clearer.
- Sing from the diaphragm, otherwise you won't be able to hold the notes for the required time.
- To avoid fatigue, keep your jaw back and not forward. This is a common mistake for many singers.
- Arch your back when you sing, keep your head back but your chin in the normal position when using belting and singing high notes. It will help you keep the pitch.
- The growl comes from the bottom of the throat. When using this technique, to avoid damage, contract your abdomen and lower back. Then take a deep breath and sing the note.
- Project and pronounce, because you'll be able to hold notes for longer and change pitch.
- Make sure your belting is smooth, otherwise practice more.
- As argued by many people, growls or loud notes can lead to damage to the vocal cords, so try not to abuse them.
Warnings
- Listen to Christina's songs to learn their tone, words and beats.
- Belting can cause damage to the vocal cords if used incorrectly, so check out some guides to learn.
