I remember when I was younger I used to sing but my voice was tiny. So I joined the children choir and observed that their voices was louder. So I started singing with my talking voice and began pushing it so I can sing high key. But lately this singing technique strains my voice. At one time I almost had sore throat. I am currently thinking of going back to my tiny voice which is actually a soprano. The question is should I continue belting or should I go back to my tiny voice.

Try which ever makes u comfortable

I think I will just sing normal and apply the belt only when necessary, just as you suggested. This way I will sing safely. Beside, music is not all about being loud.

Now u talkin! All d best

You have a great advantage, cause you possess a tiny soprano and a modal (main) voice. Belting isn't always necessary, but it gives you an edge when singing ballads and solos. In order to belt, start with your lower registers, then climb the scale. It gives your lungs, diaphram and throat enough room to pitch and sustain your belted notes. Remember, belting has to do with the chestal vocal range, so ensure you put alot of strength into it. Sustaining your notes would help alot. You could as well use your higher range and soprano to make higher notes sound soft and easy, and if possible use your head voice and whistle register to create edge. Last and most important, always exercise your vocal structure and drink alot of water before endeavouring to belt, and if it hurts or strains while singing, stop immediately, cause vocal cord damage is real. With these tips, you're on the right path to vocal splendor!
