What is a vocal register?

A vocal register is a series of notes that share a similar sound and texture in your voice.

The voice is usually divided in two registers:

Chest Voice and Head Voice.

head and chest voice with bridge between (the vocal registers)

There are several vocal registers.

From the lowest to the highest they are:

Vocal Fry

Chest Voice

Head Voice and…

Whistle Register.

But certainly the two most important registers are the chest voice and head voice.

Chest Voice refers to the notes at the bottom of your range.

They all share a similar strong, brassy sound.

When you hear the term Chest Voice, think Amy Winehouse or Johnny Cash.

They have so much bottom end on those low notes.

On the other end of the spectrum, Head Voice refers to the notes at the top of your range.

Head Voice notes all share a flutey, breathy and angelic sound.

Think Sam Smith or Mariah Carey when they sing in falsetto.
