1. Before discussing low, mid, and high notes, many music lovers have likely pondered this question: Is my voice low, mid, or high? This question seems simple, and it even appears that a simple vocal range test could provide the answer: how high can I sing…

1. Introduction Actually, I've wanted to write an article about iptables for a long time. Although I don't use it regularly, every time I do need to use it, I find that I've completely forgotten the relevant knowledge and have to go through it all again. This is because I've learned a certain knowledge point without reinforcing it through writing…

1. From Pitch Names to Solfège: Why Singing Requires a Different Perspective In a previous article (see: The Awakening of the Voice - Basics (Part 1): Pitch Structure and Auditory Stability), I introduced a fundamental fact of the modern vocal system: sound does not exist randomly. Starting with overtone structure, a certain…

1. Why did I write this article? The purpose of this article is not to create a vocal tutorial, nor is it a complete overview of music theory. It's more like a record of my own reflections—an attempt to answer a simple yet complex question: What am I actually listening to? And why are these sounds perceived by me in this way…

1. Why do we find a song pleasant to listen to? Sometimes I ponder a very simple question: why does a song sound "pleasant"? This "pleasantness" is mysterious—it's not as clear-cut as music theory, nor does it have standardized techniques; you can't measure a melody like you would measure CPU performance…

1. When we get used to "the original singer is the standard," we forget whose voice it is. Most people, when they start singing, implicitly have an "invisible standard" in their minds—whatever key the original singer sings in, we should sing in the same key. It seems that only by completely copying the original can we be recognized…

1. Introduction Having recently achieved initial success in "larynx control," I've been reflecting on the detours I've taken over the past two years in researching "singing"—it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say it was a winding, circuitous road. The fundamental reason for these many detours was that I was initially misled by the teachings of various online "vocal teachers"...

1. Entering the 'High Position': A Mythologized Concept of High Notes Many people who have studied singing and watched countless instructional videos are familiar with the term "high position." A quick search on Bilibili (a Chinese video-sharing website) for "high position" yields a screen full of tutorials, each titled "Unlocking the Secrets to High Notes," "Singing High Notes Easily..."

1. Introduction In the past two years of dedicated study of singing, I encountered a very thorny problem: my ear's ability to distinguish sounds couldn't keep up with my body's vocal production. Professional vocalists, upon listening to an original recording, can often immediately determine exactly how high a high note is and whether a low note is truly that deep; but for someone like me…

1. Introduction In previous articles (see: Spiritual Nourishment Series: A Systematic Review of Buddhist Theory (Part 1): From Interest to Rational Understanding of Buddhism), we discussed the compatibility of Buddhism and science—although their paths differ, both use observation as a method and awareness as their ultimate goal. Science explores the laws of the world outward, while Buddhism…
