| From: "Trenymusic" To: vocalist Subject: My Chin Vibrato Send reply to: VOCALIST <vocalist>
Interesting topic. I have a degree in opera and my chin wobble has been one of discussion. I do it naturally - not forced and without any tension in my jaw or larynx. If I try to control the wobble, I find my sound is altered for the worse. My teacher and I discussed this in length and found I was hurting my voice more when I tried to control my natural wobble. It only happens occasionally and it did not seem to affect my voice. Does this mean my teacher is wrong and I am doing damage to my voice. I have not had any vocal problems. I will say that I am not a natural opera singer. I had to work much harder than my peers to get the classical sound. I naturally sing pop and gospel - without a wobble. Any advise?
