The Messa di Voce

Would you like to improve your breath support, registration mastery, and range of vocal dynamics?

Study the messa di voce!

This infamous vocal exercisethe singing of a gradual crescendo and diminuendo on a long sustained tone—has been considered for centuries to be one of the greatest tests of good singing technique.

This workout will focus exclusively on the execution of this important skill, and guide you through an exploration of the following factors:

  • Breath energy and body connection

  • Registration (i.e., how vocal folds thicken up and thin out as we change dynamic level on a single pitch)

  • Resonance, vowel, and embouchure (i.e., mouth/jaw opening)

  • Consistency of pitch, tone quality, and vibrato

Remember, practice makes permanent. To perfect your messa di voce, we invite you to repeat this workout often. Every Messa di Voce workout is different, while focusing on the same fundamental skill.
