The Female Broadway Belt Voice: the Singer’S Perspective
The Female Broadway Belt Voice: The Singer’s Perspective Christianne Roll INTRODUCTION he female music theater belt voice was heard on the musical comedy stage at the beginning of the twentieth century as a way for the unamplified female voice to be heard in its middle, more speech-like range.1 Thus, the belt sound emerged as female music Ttheater singers reworked their vocal approach in the range of C4 to C5. This “traditional” belt production, in the range of C4-C5, can be described as full, bright, brassy, speech-like, and loud.2 Traditional female belt, demonstrated Christianne Roll by singers like Ethel Merman and Patti LuPone, is typically a chest voice dominant production.3 In rock/pop inspired music theater productions since 2000, such as Hamilton (2015) and Waitress (2016), females are now required to sound like rock/pop singers and produce the belt sound to the top of the staff and beyond.4 This higher extension of the female music theater belt voice in the range of D5–F5, demonstrated by singers like Jessie Mueller and Eden Espinosa, is a significant change. Female music theater singers have had to adjust their vocal strategies to sing these higher belt notes. This high belt is typically produced by a more mix-belt approach, which can be a more chest (dominant)-mix or head (dominant)-mix.5 Whereas traditional belt is produced on open vowels such as /a/ and /æ/ with vibrato, high belt sound is narrow, produced with more closed vowels, such as /e/, and very little use of vibrato.6 With the relatively recent establishment and evolution of the belt sound, its pedagogy remains unsettled.7 However, singers continue to model the style on Broadway and in the music theater industry, and currently belting is the dominant style of singing required for females pursuing a professional career in music theater.8 To meet these industry demands, female singers need current, effective strategies to produce the belt sound. -

Theatrical Outfit Digital Playbill
AND DIGITALPLAYBILL PRESENT FIRES IN CROWNTHE HEIGHTS, MIRROR: BROOKLYN AND OTHER IDENTITIES CONCEIVED, WRITTEN AND ORIGINALLY PERFORMED BY ANNA DEAVERE SMITH LIVE STREAMING • JUNE 11 – 27, 2021 SPONSORED BY 9 PERFORMANCES ONLY KEEP THE CONVERSATION GOING ONLINE WITH THE HASHTAG # toFIRES AND NOTE FROM MATT & GRETCHEN FRIENDS, Welcome to the final production of the 2020/2021 Season at Theatrical Outfit. To conclude our year, we are honored to present Anna Deavere Smith’s masterpiece of documentary theatre, Fires in the Mirror: Crown Heights, Brooklyn and Other Identities. This play was written as a direct response to the Crown Heights Riots that erupted after the deaths of an African American child and an Orthodox Jewish student in summer, 1991. The unexpected intensity of the violence revealed deep racial and class tension between two communities that had historically been successful neighbors. Anna Deavere Smith saw an opportunity for a theatre piece that could respond to the immediacy of these events and explore the deeper context behind the riots. She conducted interviews with an extraordinary range of subjects, digging into the political realities of the moment, asking questions about the way that oppressed groups are pitted against each other, battling systems that misunderstand and mistreat them, and even questioning the nature of identity itself. She spoke to members of Hasidic and Black communities on the front lines of the riots, and to political, academic, and cultural figures, and then distilled those interviews into 29 detailed monologues that explore the conflict from multiple perspectives. Rather than focusing on a binary opposition between two communities, Fires in the Mirror explores complex and nuanced networks of opinion and response, like fragments of a shattered mirror. -
