Characteristics of a good voice and a bad voice
How to know if you have a good or bad voice, either to sing or to speak in public? Sometimes it’s a bit difficult to classify our own voice, but it helps if we know what constitutes a good voice from a bad voice and take it from there. Knowing the differences between a good voice and a bad one, and its characteristics, can give you a clue on how to improve your voice.
A good voice has several characteristics, such as calm, pleasant, vibrant, well-modulated, reliable, low, manageable, warm, kind, affectionate, strong, powerful, full of intonation, full, expressive, abundant and friendly sounds. On the other hand, a bad voice has unpleasant characteristics, such as nasal, hoarse, high-pitched or grating, high, tearful, short of breath, disconnected, too high, too low, shy, colorless, sarcastic, hesitant, tense, weak. , monotonous and boring sounds.
But do you know what aggravates a bad voice? Bad speech. If you have a bad speech, chances are your audience will have a hard time appreciating your singing. To give you an idea of how to improve your singing voice and speech, here are telltale signs that could tell you if you have poor speech.
