Definition Of Some Music And Singing Terms by Lilimax(f): 4:19pm On Jul 05, 2018
I just stumbled into these Musical terms and definitions while doing some research and feel like sharing.
I am not into MUSIC though... smiley

Runs
– When a singer starts off at a very high note and drops quickly through the scale down to a very low note in the space of a second or two. Like that thing Christina Aguilera does all the time. It can also be done from a low note to a high note. Just so you know.

Licks – This is a very short solo that is performed to a complicated and fast melody during a little break in the song. During the battle rounds, it was basically when one singer would break off from the song and do a proper fancy technical bit and then return to the normal song.

Tone – Danny’s always going on about this and it’s the overall effect of someone’s voice based on its quality, loudness, high or low pitch and intensity.

Pitch – The frequency of a note determining how high or low it sounds. Basically just the note.

Vibrato
– This is the effect of regularly and dramatically changing the pitch – or notes – of the music as you’re going along, to make the song sound really emotional and that.

A cappella
– singing without music. That’s it, really.

Falsetto – A style of male singing where the voice is able to reach the pitch of a female. Like Justin Timberlake.

Soprano – This is basically a female singer who can hit well high notes. Like Mariah Carey.

Head voice – when a coach says ‘use your head voice’, it basically means switch into an impossibly high voice in a second. So high that you have to dig the skills out of your brain. Like ol’ Leona Lewis.
