Vibrato


Recommended Posts

I don't think vibrato is a matter of projection of the voice. It is used, in combination with non vibrato parts, for expressive reasons. In the baroque era vibrato wasn't used the same way. Take a look to Bach cantatas, the soprano voice (particularly when children take the part) doesn't use vibrato.

Some pop singers have an incredible control over vibrato and can sing, for example, a note with no vibrato and turn it into vibrato (Streisand). It enhances the expression.

On the other hand, in opera theaters there are no microphones (except when it's being recorded).
