Co-Vo Fundamentals > Vocal Color

Vocal Color

Have you ever been told that you should “brighten” your tone…but then not been instructed in how to do that? Or that your tone is “too dark”…but weren’t sure what you were actually doing to “darken” it, or how to fix it?

In this 45-minute vocal workout—delivered live, via Zoom—you will explore the specific acoustical factors that make a tone bright or dark, and the actual physical causes of those acoustical variations. Through vocal exercises, you will learn:

• What makes a tone “good” bright vs. “bad” bright

• What makes a tone “good” dark vs. “bad” dark

• How to combine these factors for the desirable chiaroscuro (bright/dark) resonance of the classical singer

• How intention and emotion affect vocal color

Remember, practice makes permanent. To improve your understanding of vocal color and your ability to adjust it, we invite you to repeat this workout often. Every Vocal Color workout is different, while focusing on the same set of fundamental skills.
