Nasality Vs. Nasal Resonance


Nasality Vs. Nasal Resonance

鼻音與鼻腔共鳴


Many people are confused with “Nasality” and “Nasal Resonance”, even if singers. Most singers will fall on one of the extremes of either too nasal or not nasal enough.Let's talk about the differences between them. Nasal resonance tends to be a very good thing, and nasality tends to be not so good of a thing.

If you hear me speaking to you like this and I say “Hello my name is Justin I've got nasal resonance in my voice”. If I take the sound out of my nose, suddenly I start to sound kind of muddy. But it sounds kind of strange. If I put the sound back in my nose and then I sound like myself. So we know that it sounds normal to have a little nasal resonance in the voice. How this applies to sing? I just take a little exercise here and I have it in my nasal resonators. I sing “ma ma ma ma”. If I take it out of my nose, Sings “buh-buh-buh-buh-buh”. It starts to sound a little bit muddy. So again with resonance. Sings “ma-ma-ma-ma-ma”, and without “ma-ma-ma-ma-ma”.

So when we sing, we actually want to feel a nasal resonance, a little bit of vibration right up here. So then what's the bad nasal? That has actually more to do with the larynx than it does with the nose. If I speak to you and I say “Hello my name is Justin”. My larynx is staying pretty. If I drop my larynx down, I get a kind of muddy sound. “Hello, my name is Justin”. But then if I squeeze my larynx up and I say “Hello my name is Justin”. Then I start to get a bad nasal sound. Now it’s really interesting. If I squeeze my larynx up here and I cut off my nasal cavity, I can actually make a really nasal sound without any nasal resonance at all. So a really nasal sound doesn't actually even need to have a nose in it. So when you're singing, you want to make sure that it's not your larynx squeezing up, that's going to cause nasality. You also don’t want to jam your larynx down. But if you want to feel a little bit of nasal resonance, a vibration right in through here. So that's a nasal resonance, that's good. And squeezing the larynx up with neck muscles or with your upper body that's going to be bad and cause the nasal sound and nasality sound that you don't want.

如果你聽到我這樣對你說話,我說“你好我的名字就是Justin,我的聲音中有鼻腔共鳴”。如果我從鼻子裡發出聲音,我的聲音聽起來會有些渾濁,和有點奇怪。如果我把聲音放回我的鼻子,我的聲音聽起來便像我自己的原聲。所以我們知道在聲音中有一點"鼻腔共振是很正常的。這怎麼應用於唱歌中?在這裡有一點聲音的小練習,我的聲音中有鼻腔共鳴。我唱“ma ma ma ma”。如果我把它從鼻子裡拿出來,唱出“buh-buh-buh-buh-buh”。它聽起來便有點泥濘。再次於聲音中存有鼻腔共鳴,唱出“ma-ma-ma-ma-ma”,並沒有“ma-ma-ma-ma-ma”。


因此,當我們唱歌時,我們實際上想要感受到鼻腔共振,這裡有一點振動。那麼什麼是不好的鼻音?這實際上與喉嚨有關,多於與鼻子有關。如果我和你說話,我說“你好我的名字是Justin”。我的喉嚨保持清晰。如果我放下我的喉嚨,我會發出一種泥濘的聲音。 “你好,我的名字是Justin”。但是如果我把我的喉嚨擠起來,我說“你好我的名字是Justin”。然後我會聽到一個糟糕的鼻音。這是很有趣的。如果我把我的喉嚨擠在這裡,我會截斷了我的鼻音,我實際上可以發出一種真正的鼻音而沒有任何鼻腔共鳴。所以一個真正的鼻音,實際上甚至不需要鼻子。因此,當你在唱歌時,你想要確保它不是你的喉嚨擠壓,這會導致鼻音。你也不想讓你的喉嚨像堵塞了一樣。但如果你想感受一點鼻腔共振,那麼就會發生振動。這是一種鼻腔共鳴,這很好。並且用頸部肌肉或上半身擠壓喉嚨,這是不好的,並會導致您不想要的鼻音出現。
