WHAT ARE BRIDGES?

Page 10: The Science of Vocal Bridges Part I

• A shift in resonance

WHAT ARE BRIDGES?

Page 11: The Science of Vocal Bridges Part I

• A shift in resonance

• Sympathetic vibrations = changing sensations

WHAT ARE BRIDGES?

Page 12: The Science of Vocal Bridges Part I

• A shift in resonance

• Sympathetic vibrations = changing sensations

• Commonly called Chest and Head Voice

WHAT ARE BRIDGES?

Page 13: The Science of Vocal Bridges Part I

• A shift in resonance

• Sympathetic vibrations = changing sensations

• Commonly called Chest and Head Voice

• The main Bridge connects Chest and Head registers

WHAT ARE BRIDGES?

Page 14: The Science of Vocal Bridges Part I

• A shift in resonance

• Sympathetic vibrations = changing sensations

• Commonly called Chest and Head Voice

• The main Bridge connects Chest and Head registers

• Typically where most vocal problems occur

WHY WE HAVE BRIDGES

Page 16: The Science of Vocal Bridges Part I

• Vocal sound waves are weak

WHY WE HAVE BRIDGES

Page 17: The Science of Vocal Bridges Part I

• Vocal sound waves are weak

•Must be amplified - sound waves energized

WHY WE HAVE BRIDGES

Page 18: The Science of Vocal Bridges Part I

• Vocal sound waves are weak

•Must be amplified - sound waves energized

• Power boosts occur in the throat and mouth

WHY WE HAVE BRIDGES

Page 19: The Science of Vocal Bridges Part I

• Vocal sound waves are weak

•Must be amplified - sound waves energized

• Power boosts occur in the throat and mouth

• Changes in these boosts create the sensation of bridges

SOUND

Page 21: The Science of Vocal Bridges Part I

•What is sound?

SOUND

Page 22: The Science of Vocal Bridges Part I

•What is sound?

• Vibrating Air

SOUND

Page 23: The Science of Vocal Bridges Part I

•What is sound?

• Vibrating Air

• Sound waves are created by the vocal cords resisting air

SOUND

Page 24: The Science of Vocal Bridges Part I
Page 25: The Science of Vocal Bridges Part I

•Complex versus simple sound waves

Page 26: The Science of Vocal Bridges Part I

•Complex versus simple sound waves

•A whistle is a simple sound wave

Page 27: The Science of Vocal Bridges Part I

•Complex versus simple sound waves

•A whistle is a simple sound wave

•Little information

Page 28: The Science of Vocal Bridges Part I
Page 29: The Science of Vocal Bridges Part I

•The human voice = complex sound wave

Page 30: The Science of Vocal Bridges Part I
Page 31: The Science of Vocal Bridges Part I

•Multiple pitches or frequencies at the same time

Page 32: The Science of Vocal Bridges Part I

•We need to break down the sounds we hear
