ÍNDICE DE DESVANTAGEM VOCAL DO CANTO MODERNO EM CANTORES COM E SEM ACOMPANHAMENTO DE PEDAGOGOS VOCAIS

Abstract

The voice has characteristics specific to each human being, with very varied possibilities of vocal adjustments for singers of mass popular music (MPM). In general, singing seems like a simple and easy artistic activity, but singing, as it is not a materialized instrument, is more difficult to control, the language used in teaching-learning is imaginative, which makes it subjective (Dinville,1993) However, for quality vocal delivery, sound stability is an essential factor, both for the spoken voice and the singing voice. In the singing voice we hear, simply put, 10% corresponds to the singer's natural voice, the other 90% corresponds to the worked voice. Therefore, a good voice is the result of good vocal care and adequate training. (Fucci-amato, 2010). Objective: to identify and compare the rates of vocal handicap of singers with and without the support of a vocal pedagogue. Methodology: The study was approved by the Research Ethics Committee of the Pontifical Catholic University of Goiás (CAAE 78514224.5.0000.0037/Opinion no. 6.807.053) All participants signed the informed consent form and accessed the link to the questionnaire and IDCM protocol made available to complete the survey.90 singers participated in this research, 62 of whom were not accompanied by vocal pedagogues, which we call Group 1 – G1 and 28 were accompanied by vocal pedagogues, Group 2 - G2. The study was conducted using the IDCM protocol, adapted into Portuguese by Moretti et al. (2011). Results: the average total score obtained in the IDCM of G1 was 32.1 points and G2 26.5, with the defect being the domain that presented the highest rate in both groups.
