Best Singing & Voice Lessons in Mansfield

Why does your voice sound different to you inside your head, versus hearing it back on a recording? Is THAT what everyone else hears? This topic is one that is discussed more or less every week in sessions. We do an exercise with a singer or work on a song, and the singer's perception is wildly out of kilter with how it actually sounds. Sometimes this is because they sang amazingly but the internal sensations seemed unusual. Other times they think they did a great job, and it really didn't sound as good as they perceived it to be out front. The voice is a tricky instrument to master, because it's the only instrument in the world where the musician IS the instrument. The sound actually comes from inside our bodies. We hear not just the final sound out front, but we experience it with all the internal sensations as well. It's like being sat inside a piano as it's being played. We are getting WAY more sound than the listeners. Some frequencies are accentuated more than the final sound, and some are diminished. It can be quite a difference compared to recording yourself and listening back. Continue learning more about the reasons behind this by clicking below.
