Interpretation is an attempt singers, musicians to capture the intent and meaning of the composition of composer; either express or implied, by notation or expressed by the meaning of his words. The ability to analyze and understand a song will be reflected in the expressions and body language exhibited by the singer.
dynamics
Dynamics is a gentle song sung loudly. Dynamics create a composition that brought more lively. The signs of the dynamic statement there are three points:
Soft dynamics: piano, pianisimo, mezopiano, pianisisimo
Loud dynamics: forte, fortesimo, mezoforte, fortesisimo
Dynamics of moving: cressendo, decressendo, diminuendo, morendo
rhythm and agogik
# Rhythms is a soul or character contained in the motion melody. This rhythm is the holder of an important role in the music because it is a "pulse" heart music. So the rhythm is already implicit in the human pulse, too. This comes from the rhythm of what we call the tempo or bars.
# Tempo is the speed or the slowness of a song sung.
It is important to understand the tempo of the singer will sing to support the innate character of the song.
# Bar is a division of note values that are the realization of the rhythm or the rhythm itself is limited by what is called bar lines.
# Agogik are things related to the tempo in a song, whether slow or speed up in accordance with the emotions portrayed.
Phrasering or wording
Phrasering is beheading word in a sentence, verse or sentence sentence language songs. Sentences the song (musical sentences) that must be considered is to keep the feel of the melody line intact so take a breather when the sentence should take into account the existing music by writing marks in a coma scores and songs like the point.
Language sentences (sentences of text) to note is that the overall meaning of the poem in achieving unity in achieving the sentence so the sentence has always supported the unity of meaning implicit in the existing poem.
It should be noted that the essence of a known point phrasering or coma; a period or comma is the place to take breath. Thus may not take the breath out of the sign that was given to the integrity of the sentence and the song sung perfectly achievable.
Articulator or Pronunciation
Articulation is a term associated with the pronunciation of words that are driven by said instruments. Pronunciation of words in singing should be clear so that the message of the song can be understood audience. A good articulation is to try to make all the letters into vowels sounds.
Letter life should not turn on in projecting the voice, so that does not sound broken. But consonant (consonant) must be turned on.
General functions of articulation is as a transmitter of sound production and delivery of a variety of sounds, which is closely connected with the formation of language sentence consisting of a series of words.
# Produce Sound
There are 2 types of sounds, namely: voice to speak and voice to sing. Main differences are as follows:
a.sound speaking (speaking voice):
loud, rude, does not resonate, dirty (Noises), weight, spent a lot of breath.
b.sound singing (singing voices):
smooth, clean, clear, translucent, lightweight, resonate, all out of breath into sound.
To get the votes needed to sing the imagination and exercises as follows:
Imagine the sound is placed on top, in front of the forehead, so that the resulting sound impressive light and bright, clear and lucid.
Get the sound vibration (ringing) on the forehead of the ring "ng" or "n".
Can use the high tone of how to throw up and swirling with vocal "u" or other vocal sounds but do not shout!
The sound of a good vocal sound that sounded bright, clean, light and bright, warm, thick enough, without being compelled to, the words clearly.
Vowel sounds bad is the sound that sounded: rough, dirty, stiff, tense, dark, blurry, not contain, wheezing.
Resonator
Resonator is a sound that arises because of the space with hard walls that reflect sound back. Cavity resonance is 3 kinds, namely:
# Cavity resonance Top
Often called the resonant head (head voice). The sound produced by a brilliant singer and content of the head and face were full.
# Middle resonance cavity
Ie mouth cavity resonance and throat. The nature of this cavity bridge displacement registers, between the lower and upper registers, so do not fault the sound occurs.
# Cavity resonance Down
Is chest cavity resonance. Nature makes a loud voice and thick, especially in lower tones. Chest vibrate more dominant.
Function cavity resonance:
1. Increasing the loudness level due to encouragement from the motor
2. Distinguish types of voices (SATB)
3. Distinguish colors sound (timbre)
4. Distinguish the various vowel sounds and placements
5. The sound is placed in the correct space will result in:
5.1 echoing sound (ringing)
5.2 vibrates (vibrant)
5.3 thick (rich)
Forward projections 5.4 (forward direction)
5.5 full (full)
Imagination is needed to help put the sound in the correct position. Each singer must be thinking that the neck and throat relax in total and open wide to make way air from the lungs to the upper and finally reached the end of the head and then out in full. Resonance is placed at the top of the face: forehead, nose up or niche, the upper teeth, cheekbones, as if appointed to the top.
Vibrator or vibrator
What is meant by a vibrator is a source of noise occurs due to gusts or breathing a sigh that shook the vocal cords.
Pita Vote: human vocal cord is 2 pieces, namely the false vocal cords (thick) and the original sound tape (thin). The larynx is composed of 2 strong bands and woven elastic and yellowish color. Man's vocal cords was longer and thicker (20-35mm) compared with female vocal cord short and thin (15-20mm). Vocal cords are very flexible and sensitive. Therefore, its use must be maintained.
Motor or Drive
Which become the motor of singing is breathing. Breathing is vital and basic (primary) because the energy of the vocals though. There are 4 types of respiration:
# Claviculer Breathing (Respiratory shoulder)
At the time of air, breathing in through your nose pressed into his shoulders and upward. Catch one's breath is very shallow way, because it did not last long and posture become less beautiful.
# Costal Respiratory (chest breathing)
Decision breath using lungs as a reservoir of air that thrust the chest forward, because the breath fully accommodated by the lungs. The weakness of this tract are the lungs become quickly tired of holding air, so the sound becomes unstable because of breath control is weak.
# Respiratory abdominal (belly breathing)
Breathing activity using the abdominal muscles as a container of air so that the lower abdominal muscles expand into the fall.
# Respiratory diaphragm
The diaphragm is a term that shows midriff. Breath is the best to sing because it has air reservoir space that is wide enough. The lungs can fill up without a pinch because the room was enlarged by the strain diaphragm moving downward. And breathing is what should be used by each singer.
Body Attitude
Standing posture is the best attitude to sing:
# Body does not bend straight straight
# Shoulders do not rise to the top
# Head slightly thrown back, not down, do not be too tilted to the top
# Left leg slightly forward to maintain balance
# Body is not rigid and tense but sturdy strong but relaxed
Sitting posture is an alternative attitude to sing for a special interpretation:
# Body erect and the head position at the time standing
# Back straight
# Left foot forward slightly forward
# Straight and abdominal muscles strong
# Hand relaxed on the thighs
# View focus
