voicing

voiced; voicing. transitive verb. 1. : to express in words : utter. voice a complaint.

What is a voicing in music? To put it simply, it's changing the structure of a chord. For example, if you have a C chord, the notes typically go C, E, and G. If you change the order of the notes to E, G, C, it's still a C chord, but a different voicing of the chord.

When you change the order that the notes of a chord appear in, or when you change what octaves the notes appear in, you produce different voicings of the chord tones. Embracing different chord voicing techniques can go a long way toward elevating the quality of your music.

Chord voicing refers to the order of the individual voices within a chord, the color tones added, which chord tones are doubled or omitted and the spacing and octave position of each note. Choosing good voicings is an important aspect of music arranging and composition.

Voicing is a term sometimes used by pianists to describe the dynamics (the different volume levels) of different voices in a musical texture. A Chord Voicing is the way that the notes of a chord are arranged or spelled.

An easy way to determine whether a consonant is voiced or not is to place a finger on your throat. As you pronounce a letter, feel the vibration of your vocal cords. If you feel a vibration the consonant is a voiced one.

Voicing can refer to the articulatory process in which the vocal folds vibrate, its primary use in phonetics to describe phones, which are particular speech sounds.

In phonetics and phonology, voice articulation or voicing identifies speech sounds (like consonants and vowels) produced by the vocal folds (or vocal cords). When we think of voice, we normally think of it in terms of social interactions. Our voice carries a message with a tone or accent.

The vocal cords vibrate to create sound. Air moving through the voice box causes the vocal cords to vibrate and brings them closer together. The vocal cords also help close the voice box during swallowing to stop you from breathing in food or liquid.

Voice modulation in spoken language The most important communicative, or phonetic, parameters are the voice pitch (determined by the vibratory frequency of the vocal folds) and the degree of separation of the vocal folds, referred to as vocal fold adduction (coming together) or abduction (separating).

A voicing is a particular expression of a given chord, based on the order in which the tones are stacked. For example, playing E major in the open position is one voicing. Playing E major using an A form barre chord at the 7th fret is another voicing of that same chord.

Voicing is the gentle manipulation of the felts surrounding the hammer heads to produce an even tone throughout the piano. Hammer felts may be softened, resulting in a darker tone, or hardened to produce a brighter sound. Discuss this with your piano technician for more detailed information specific to your piano.
