Where should the larynx be when singing?
The ideal position of the larynx during singing within lower and middle registers is relaxed and low. This position is achieved with every complete breath renewal. In other words, when a singer is preparing to sing (i.e., inhaling), the larynx naturally lowers. Gently place a hand on your larynx then inhale.
How does the larynx affect singing?
The secondary function of the larynx is to create sound.
Muscles in the larynx bring the vocal folds together which interrupts air escaping the lungs. The number of times they interrupt the airflow per second creates the pitch. ... They do not vibrate themselves to create the pitch.
Can u raise your larynx in singing?
The larynx in a neutral position is closer to what happens when you belt. Raising the larynx too high creates a tight or squeezed sound. Some teachers talk about a raised larynx for belting. If you drop the larynx low for classical singing, the position of the larynx is higher for belting.
