My brushes with the definition of head voice have left me wanting. According to the two teachers I have had so far....
Head voice....different from chest voice in that the sound resonates in the nasal passages. Produced by lifting palate and projecting sound upward/outward...through the nose, through the eyes, through the top of the head....apparently the sound is supposed to spin. I have been told that the sound vibrates the teeth, the nose etc. I have been told to try making a Kaw Kaw Kaw noise like a crow, to make a squeaky door noise, talk like Mickey Mouse and sustain it as a note.
I finally thought I had a grasp of it...and now...well who knows
But that's what head voice has meant to me. Feel free to critique all you want....I am a mere mezzo in training.
