Technical issues are inevitable if you are a singer. Even for opera singers with naturally beautiful voices.
Everyone has to learn how to build muscles, coordinate them efficiently, and do it in an artistic way. And once a voice is built, it doesn't just stay that way. It has to be maintained.
But then what? What happens when vocal issues arise? How often do we blame rep choices and forget the actual technique?

Has to be Netrrebko. And now that I listen to her early recordings and have watched the severe and swift decline of her voice, I can hear the foreboding technical problems in early performances that I once thought exceptional. But she also tackles repertoire (often to tragic effect) that someone with her voice type never, ever should. Turandot, really? I just hope she spares the world Isolde.

Evan, recently I did an opera project with the great opera conductor Donato Renzetti. He told me that all young singers who rush on to the stage without having fully developed the necessary technique are condemned to a very early demise. He didn’t say that young singers should not be singing at all. But he believes that singers should only sing what they can handle at any given point of their careers.

As an amateur who loves to sing, I took several years of lessons (while in a musical theater group) in my early thirties. My teacher was classically trained in the Bel Canto method; and I benefited from her understanding of the technical aspects of singing. Told I have a "pleasant voice" (ie not spectacular) satisfies me. At 76, I can still hit all my notes with ease; and have no dire consequences. Certainly the frequency of my vocalizing is rather minimal; yet it is very gratifying to still have the positioning and power to satisfy...myself!

I would like to point out as well that after 10-15 years the voice itself loses its freshness (this period is usually referred to as 'prime'). It happens to every singer, usually the first thing to lose are the high notes, and sooner than later the wobble starts to appear. Being by 20 years the ideal time to retire, and only getting up to 25+ years with good results (yet also some defects) those that did have perfect technique and that trained hard to keep the voice in pitch. Lilli Lehmann, Marcella Sembrich, Nellie Melba, Kristen Flagstad, Leyla Gencer, Franco Corelli, Giacomo Lauri-Volpi and Joan Sutherland to mention a few. Zinka Milanov also said it: "When you are young you sing on your youth, but when you reach 35 years old you have to depend on technique".
@evan-dunn
@evan-dunn 5 дней назад
Thanks for your comment! Unfortunately, this has become the narrative for singers who don't develop a strong technique from the beginning or don't continue to train their technique (as you mentioned). But there is no reason why a singer should start to struggle in their early thirties. That is WAY too young. The main reason a singer develops issues in their thirties is technical problems (unless it is health or something outside of their control). Voices can peak in the forties, but that doesn't mean that the singing gets bad after that!

Evan, you could not be more right. I live and work in singing in France, and there is a nonstop stream of French singers with pretty (not strong) voices that start promisingly, begin to show signs of wear in their 30s, and by their mid 40s they're singing jazz and show tunes because their technique sabotaged them. You have conductors telling singers to sing softer and softer, then other singers accuse orchestras of playing too loud. Keep posting these videos!

100% agree. Technique is everything. One needs to keep studying even if one is a successful professional. The crazy thing is that this happened to mythic singers of the past (Friedrich Shorr, Callas, Di Stefano, Ljuba Welitsch, Sills) but then they stopped singing. Today those singers with destroyed voices keep on torturing us! They become "dramatic" sopranos or "baritones" and butcher the greatest Opera roles out there. Greed...
@Shahrdad
@Shahrdad 6 дней назад
Sills definitely sang roles that were far too heavy for her delicate instrument. Welitsch, I read, sang several times while quite sick and developed nodules on her cords, but that could also be because of her unrestrained abandon when performing. Callas had learned to sing with a statuesque and strong physique, and that's how she mastered her technique. She then made the mistake of losing one third of her body mass in less than a year, and the results were immediately audible to the discerning ear. I think this led to greater tension in her neck and jaw, and immediately we heard a decrease in power and plushness, thinner and more strident top notes, slower vibrato, slower trills, and less ease on the highest notes, and of course the infamous wobble, which became really audible right after the weight loss. Renee Fleming believes that Callas's avoirdupois was integral to how she supported her voice, and when she lost all this weight, she no longer could support the voice the same way. Phyllis Curtin pointed to the sinking chest and forward slumping shoulders as proof of lack of proper breath support. Callas herself said that she lost strength in her diaphragm, which basically means she lost her support. This didn't go unnoticed by critics either, as one of them wrote in '58, "There were sounds fearfully uncontrolled, forced beyond the too-slim singer's present capacity to support or sustain."I think this led to greater tension in her neck and jaw, and immediately we heard a decrease in power and plushness, thinner and more strident top, slower vibrato, slower trills, and less ease on the highest notes.

@@evan-dunn singers of this caliber learn the basis of their technique in their formative years, often as teenagers. Once older and in the full throes of a career, it’s nearly impossible to relearn your technique. It’s just like how it’s impossible to lose your accent if you learn a new language after the age of 14. And as Renee Fleming said, had Callas been a soubrette, perhaps the weight loss wouldn’t have affected her much, but she was a dramatic voice singing the most difficult repertoire. And as Christa Ludwig said, a voice is like a raw egg: once it’s gone bad, there’s no fixing it. We saw the same change in Debbie Voigt after has gastric bypass.

Some names come to mind... Katia Ricciarelli, José Carreras (who were both mentored by Karajan who encouraged them to sing rep beyond their voices). Also Jerry Hadley comes to mind, who at one point said that opera houses wanted him to sing lighter - and who later on in his career moved into surprising, heavier repertoire with a voice that, from what I heard, for a variety of reasons had lost the quality and shine of his heydays. Listen to a recording of him in the 80's, mid 90's, late 90's and early 00's and the differences are very obvious. Unfortunately he wasn't able to cope, unlike someone like Villazon who's had tremendous vocal challenges as well, but seems to have a found a fulfilling second career.

Hello, did you ever heard of an Italian contralto Bernadette Manca de Nissa? Sadly, she is really underrated and was famous only in Italy. I really never heard anything like this before. What a VOICE! Not only she's a REAL contralto (while 90% others DON'T) but absolutely outstanding technique, timbre and musicality! This is how a real "dark" and "big" voice supposed to sound: not wobbly, muffled and tensed but very clear, ringing bell-like (head resonanse) and effortless! It's truly a miracle that she was able to sing music EQUALLY good from Moteverdi to Puccini (and her Belcanto is above perfect). She definately had an "old school" training (unlike 95% singers of her generation). I can only compare her Mozart's arias to Baltsa and no one else. I really recommend you to listed to one of her (there are very few) recordings and share your opinion

She never developed the chest voice (thyro aretenoid muscles that brace the thought open) and never weaved it up throughout her entire range. It takes time to learn that. Pavarotti did a demo one time and said it might take you 10 years to take a good belted sound and have it be deep enough to be a great sound. Because of microphones, singers have been allowed to cheat and to not have to develop their instruments properly. Most singers aren’t sending the sound out into the hall these days. They’re giving a private concert inside of their own skulls to themselves and ruining their voices at the same time. The sound is swallowed, muffled, strident, wobbly, and wrong. Their posture is completely wrong, too; they don’t establish the acoustic box underneath their voice and sing on that air. They’re singing collapsed all the time and grinding their cords because of it. If you watch Birgit Nilsson, Mario Del Monaco, and Ghena Dimitrova, you’ll see how they stand and breath. They breathe all the way up to their first ribs establishing the acoustic box, stay upright, not pointing their heads downwards, and even lean back a bit to get the pipe as long as possible for high notes.

I may or may not know something about vocal technique....I didn't know anything about "having a voice" until I was 28. Then I began lessons which I took very seriously ie practiced a lot. First, 5 teachers taught "mask singing"; the mask being the sinuses on either side of one's nose. After a long hiatus, I went back to lessons when I was 65 years old...a bit of diversion in retirement. A passing mention was made of "open throat" singing.....followed that lead to info on Web, and discovered over a period of 3 years and extended range, up and down, the includes in warmup a resonant 5 octaves ( I know...sounded like BS to me too, but teacher and I kept exploring it. Seems real enough) I have never heard myself. Could sound like a cat in a Cuisinart ( haven't heard that either), but I like to think that not the case as technique that allows for that range might allow at the same time a decent sound. What underscores all this, may be my fascination how so many serious singers appear to do NOTHING in terms of regular aerobic exercise or strength training. I think that would be my good luck in all this given that I began so late. It would seem to me that at every level of sound production, there is something that can be learned or applied from what constitutes "physical fitness".....
