(1) "Opening the throat" means stabilizing the throat in the correct position. The tongue flap actively contracts upward into an arch shape, and the base of the tongue is relaxed. After being laid flat on the lower teeth, the jaw opens, the chin relaxes, naturally lowers, and pulls back. At this time, the throat is open.
Yawning can make the mouth open naturally, relax, lift the flap and increase the space in the mouth. Therefore, when singing, don't clog your throat, open it and let the breath come out freely. The state of yawning is really a good way to open the throat, and it also ensures the singer's good singing state. In normal practice, you can also yawn with your mouth closed. When yawning with your mouth closed, your inner state is also open and upward. If we can keep this state when singing, your voice will not be "white" and "flat", but "vertical" and "round".
(2) Open your throat with a smile. When we say "laugh", we don't just laugh, but lift the "laughing muscles". The "smiling muscles" are lifted to open the nasopharynx and the mandible, and the smiling muscles (cheekbones) on both sides of the face are smiling. This smiling state can open your throat and give you a high note. "The state of singing is yawning and laughing", which is very incisive.
Second, do exercises to get the fulcrum of breath, understand the coordination of sound absorption and sound production, and use scientific hum to understand and adjust your singing.
Learn to open your mouth and sing, your upper and lower teeth are loose, and your chin has a loose "falling feeling". The tip of the tongue touches your lower teeth loosely. When singing an octave, from low to high, the vowels are not broken, and the oropharyngeal cavity is opened from small to large at the same time. With the smooth cooperation of breath, it makes a mellow and smooth sound with accurate and clear pronunciation.
In the final analysis, the purpose of pronunciation practice is to sing songs more perfectly, so we must pay attention to the clarity of pronunciation and articulation, correctly grasp the echo of language, clarify the structural laws of Chinese, and practice with the combination of song tunes, pronunciation and articulation. When practicing singing, each word should be read several times according to the pronunciation method, and then combined with vocal music practice, with words with sounds, so that the words are clear and mellow.
Extended data
Explanation of throat opening: In the training process, no matter which throat opening method is adopted, it is necessary to start with opening the mandibular joint to drive the soft cover to lift up and the tongue base to move slightly forward and downward. In other words, throat opening mainly refers to the space between the soft palate of the mouth and the back of the tongue base after opening (the tongue base is moderately pressed down and the soft palate is lifted up accordingly).
This is enough to show that opening the throat is not to open your mouth desperately, but to lower your chin as you usually breathe with your mouth. Judging from the physiological function of vocalization, under normal circumstances, if the mouth is too wide, the pharyngeal cavity is easy to narrow or even be squeezed, which affects the correct formation of the singing dome and hinders the normal vibration of the voice. Of course, the physiological characteristics of each person's mouth are also different. For example, caruso and Geely are also world-famous vocal masters, but when they sing, one mouth is open and the other is not.
