Slava Ave Maria

...








countertenors are ...

countertenors are almost always done through falsetto these days. very few adult males have this range in their modal voice

Mr. Slava, it you ...

Mr. Slava, it you are going to sing this Prayer, please learn the works correctly. I love your voice but get the words together.

There are two kinds ...

There are two kinds of Countertenor... Falsetto and natural countertenor

I am sorry, is that ...

I am sorry, is that really counter-tenor? Sounds more like falcetto...

This is so epic!!! ...

Beautifulllllllllllllllllllll. He is the envy of some sopranos.

Bravo.thank you ...

Bravo.thank you Slava.

素晴らしい。。。。 溜息が漏れるとはこのことだ。。。。 ポストしてくださってありがとう。

The vibralto effect ...

The vibralto effect is a bit over but I could live with it. What spoiled the song is the echo effect (which is common in all of Slava's recording). Above all, what really kills this song is the deafening hammerings of the tubular bells in the middle and at the end (and also the pre-mature hand clap). The tubular bells is just like an alarm clock waking you up whilst in the midst of a sweet dream. Where's the musical director?

I agree with Minimi ...

I agree with Minimi, they are both still in the falsetto function of the vocal cords. Just variations on cord closure, breath seepage, tension and tone.

He has such a ...

He has such a sparkling, beautiful voice. I love the vibralto effect!

The song itself ...

The song itself vanishes with so many technical comments. I liked the interpretation.

Why he thinks he's ...

Why he thinks he's a countertenor? He sucks much, his timbre is annoying.

who is this guy?

who is this guy?

You will listen the ...

You will listen the difference even though they are both still chest voice (or modal voice). You can also apply more air and not yawn to achieve another type of sound, you can apply tension to achieve another type of sound too. All of these are different techniques but all fall in the same voice classification.

No, please read ...

No, please read carefully. I said they are different techniques with the same human voice classification(falsetto in this case). Just like when you sing in your chest voice (or modal voice) you can achieve various different types of sounds by applying different techniques. You may try it yourself, I ignore if you are a singer, but try singing something in modal voice for example in the same way you speak, then sing the same thing but like when you are yawning.

your argument makes ...

your argument makes completely no sense. your saying that the same exact technique is used to produce two very different sounds. obviously there is a huge variences between the two.

hmmm i think its ...

hmmm i think its not the same sound because of the different techniques, but they´re both still falsettos... its not their modal voice, i can produce both types of sounds with my voice, but still they are falsettos... that is what i think.

sorry dude, they ...

sorry dude, they aren' t the same. infact, they are much different. dont tell me justin timberlakes falsetto is really the same thing as this countertenor.. not quite.

kinda of a falsetto ...

kinda of a falsetto.

could you please ...

could you please link me or show me those proofs please i would like to hear them, thank you.

Falsetto is a ...

Falsetto is a different mechanism, you are basically pulling the cords to make them tight and allow air to flow only over the edges. Granted some are able to sing in a strong falsetto but for someone like me I can sing in mezzo in full voice. No falsetto and I have seen proof of it.

Still you say it ...

Still you say it contributes, well then i still think its falsetto more strong... anatomically and phonetically they are different i understand that, but still its not our natural speaking voice, some call it chest voice, that said science doesnt classify voice as fry-chest-head voice... it is classified as fry-chest-falsetto. Pardon my spelling if it is incorrect.
