Vocal Type: Lyric Soprano
Vocal Range: 3 Octaves 2 notes and a semitone (E3-G#6)
Whistle Register: Yes
Vocal Pluses: The midrange is smooth and slightly smoky. Depending on the placement of the voice, the chest voice can be bright and smooth- when mixed- or edgy and coarse-when it's pulled up into the throat. The lower half of the belting range- up to a C5- is where the voice finds its strongest sound; being resonate and controlled. The vibrato is stable and pleasant and smooths out any harshness in tone that poor technique may induce. Has the strength and stamina to hold notes for impressive lengths of time throughout the belting range without wavering in pitch. The head voice is heavy with a piercing quality and fullness to it.
Vocal Negatives: Poor technique; the belting voice is often placed in the throat, making the sound produced sound like shouting in the higher extremes, and the control over the voice can be inconsistent.
Spot on, I'd say. She definitely has a nicer voice than her sister, bless her. BTW, I watched a Kylie concert the other day and was pleasantly surprised, she can sing pretty well live!
ReplyDeleteHer nasal tone is a little off putting at times put there is no question that she knows the ins and outs of her voice, and is always able to deliver consistent live vocals from the performances I've seen. Her last concert keeps playing on sky, but I keep missing it...I should really just sky plus it.
ReplyDeletethat G#6 a FAIL IN HEAD VOICE NOT WHISTLE.
ReplyDeletePeople forget that Jessica was known for her vocal ability when she first came out. She and Christina were the ones who could "sing their butts off" and Britney, Mandy, etc, were known more for their dancing and lip syncing. Jessica never had great technique but I was still wowed by the power and range of her voice. Too bad she pretty much stopped marketing herself as a singer and became more of a "product." I think that, with more training, she could have achieved great things as a vocalist. Oh well.
