THE SPECIFICS OF THE FORMATION OF AN INDIVIDUAL SINGING STYLE IN THE PROCESS OF TEACHING VOCAL

Abstract

The article is dedicated to one of the most important aspects of teaching pop vocal, namely, the process of forming an individual singing style. The work explores mechanisms of searching for one’s own manner of singing, timbre and emotional coloring of the voice, a unique style of interpretation of the artistic image of a song. The hypothesis of the research is that the more varied and complex the auditory models that the student-vocalist is guided by and reproduces in the learning process, the more effectively the individual singing style is formed. To confirm the hypothesis, experimental work was carried out to train student vocalists; the results of this work are presented in the article. The theoretical value of the article is determined by the definition of the specifics of the formation of one of the most important qualities of a pop singer – an individual singing style; practical significance lies in identifying the features and conditions for the formation of this quality, which can be taken into account in the organization and implementation of the educational process of music colleges and universities.
