False voice vs. Real voice

Let’s pick up where we left off yesterday with  “goofy opera singer voice.”  So, if it’s not real, what is “real” in the singing voice?  The voice you speak with is your real voice, and there’s no reason not to sing with the same vocal sound.  When you switch to “goofy opera singer voice,” you are artificially manipulating your sound and this is NOT good.  Any time you artificially manipulate the sound of your voice, you are working against the way you were designed, and this is very vocally unhealthy.  The fastest way to wreck a voice for good is mess around with how it naturally works and try to make it work in a way it was NOT designed to work.  BAD idea!  The point of voice training is to get the voice to work in the way it is designed by using the actual anatomy and physiology of the voice to be the most efficient and most relaxed.  When we train a voice, we learn how to undo “work” and make sound by NOT working or doing anything that’s unnatural and not relaxed.  It’s messing around with the voice and trying to make it do something it doesn’t do on it’s own that ruins singing.  No “goofy opera singer voice,” and I say that as a true opera-singing soprano!  I sing in my real voice no matter what I sing.
