Vocal technique, exercises, tips and relevant resources
Cabaret is a musical film celebrated for its iconic performances and distinct vocal style. In this article, we will explain how you can learn to sing like the legendary performers in Cabaret, specifically Liza Minnelli, Joel Grey, and Judi Dench.
Liza Minnelli is known for her powerful voice and emotional depth. Her performance of the classic song "Cabaret" is a perfect example of her unique style. To develop a strong voice like Minnelli, you need to focus on breath control and vocal strength. Our vocal range test and pitch accuracy test can help you identify your strengths and weaknesses. Additionally, the pitch training and educational singing course can help you develop your voice step by step. Practicing the breathing exercises found in the breath support article and mastering vocal registers, as explained in the voice registers and vocal break article, can help you develop the strength and control necessary to sing like Liza Minnelli.
Joel Grey's performance of "Wilkommen" in Cabaret demands both a great vocal range and the ability to emotionally connect with the audience. To achieve this, you must practice your diaphragmatic breathing with Farinelli Breathing exercise video and improve your posture with the Good Singing Posture video. Additionally, understanding the different voice registers through articles such as Open mouth & throat and Chest Voice/Voice Registers can help you achieve the necessary range. And to improve your articulation skills, take time to explore the Finger Bite exercise video.
Judi Dench, though not a singer by trade, delivered a stunning performance of "Lose Me Tomorrow" that showcases her clear and beautiful voice. To achieve a similar clarity and range, you must focus on supporting your breath and relaxing your throat. In order to achieve this, we recommend thoroughly understanding and practicing the breathing exercises outlined in the Breath support article, as well as learning how resonance works through the Resonance in Singing article. Additionally, the Singing with Intuition, Skills, Emotion, and Thinking article would be helpful in training your emotional connection during singing.
