Abstract

An essay discusses the position of the larynx during belting. The most compelling explanation for a slightly raised larynx in belt voice is that, acoustically, there is an advantage to having the first formant frequency rise with pitch. The first formant needs to be higher than the strong second harmonic found in belting.
