A good singer must be able to tell the difference between the listener’s sense of hearing and a singer’s sense of hearing. This is considered as an important requisite for a singer in traditional classical singing. This capability to distinguish between the two is particularly reflected in singing high notes. Singers almost always depend on their intuition to gauge the sense of hearing of the listener. The result is that if they feel that their singing is perfect then they automatically presume that the audiences too feel the same. Of course the same goes for volume too. When a singer feels that he is loud enough, he assumes that it is loud enough for the audience also. But they cannot be more wrong. The reason for this assumption is that while singing, the air inside the mouth will directly vibrate the tympanum. This vibration of the tympanum makes the voice seem louder to the singer. But by the time this sound wave travels to the listener’s tympanum its magnitude reduces, and what the audience actually hears will be a softer voice. The reality is just not the same as what a singer assumes.
Let's take learning how to sing high notes for an example. Many singers have the potential and capability of singing high notes, but due to their own preconceptions and prejudices they are concerned that their voice is not expressive, or that it is too loud or powerful and just not right. Some may be misguided in thinking that producing high notes is the result of inanition.
In a few cases a singer might just discover that what he or she feels as distasteful shouting instead singing actually feels good to the listener. The audience might not even think that you are shouting. Hence what you assume and what actually happens is entirely different where singing is concerned, especially while singing high notes. Let’s see how to differentiate accurately between the objective and subjective perception of voice by a singer. A voice recorder can help the singer to achieve this. This tool is very important for a singer and will make their progress in learning how to sing high notes easier and quicker.
Another example for wrong perceptions in singing is when a singer blindly or erroneously thinks that he or she is inferior or favored. Also, when a singer thinks that a falsetto is a real high note or mistakes a heavy tone for a loud tone, he has some serious perception problems.
Most often singers don’t realize that they have produced a good high note. This is a proven fact. On the contrary their vocal coaches usually reject their performance when they think that they have produced a pleasing and powerful high note. A sound recorder can help the students to identify their correct and incorrect high notes and also to differentiate and compare them. It becomes infinitely easier to grasp and maintain the correct method of high note recognition when you use the voice recorder to record your high note and checking with your voice coach for confirmation.
This error in hearing is predominantly found in vocal art. There is a legion of difference between the perception of the singer and that of the listener. A feeling of goodness and confidence in one’s self can happen only if you keep your mind calm and relaxed and by having a clear knowledge of your qualities and capabilities.
To validate your performance and to differentiate between the correct and incorrect high notes, you have to use a sound recorder. A sound recorder gives you the much needed confidence for your success in producing a powerful high note. It can be your magic mirror to reflect your voice and to help in your performance paving a smooth path to your success.
