PANGARAP KO ANG IBIGIN KA – A female student, belting out the song popularized by Regine Velasquez, has gone viral, garnering admiration from netizens.
Whistling in singing, often termed vocal or falsetto whistle, is a specialized technique where a singer produces exceptionally high-pitched, flute-like sounds. It’s characterized by its ethereal and piercing quality, typically performed in the uppermost vocal registers. This technique primarily resides in the soprano range, the highest in classical music, involving the whistle register above the conventional chest, head, and mixed registers.
To achieve the whistle register, precise vocal cord control is crucial, with minimal vocal cord mass creating these high-pitched tones. Maintaining steady and controlled airflow through breath control ensures consistent and clear whistle tones. Pitch accuracy is paramount due to the clarity of whistle tones, necessitating extensive ear and vocal cord training.
Whistling often expands beyond a singer’s usual range, demanding extensive practice to master. It offers artistic expression, adding unique elements to performances, and evoking emotions from whimsy to ethereality. Although not tied to a specific genre, whistling is commonly linked to classical and contemporary pop music, with artists like Mariah Carey and Minnie Riperton known for its use.
Developing this skill typically involves formal vocal training, as coaches aid singers in safely accessing and controlling the whistle register. However, not all singers can achieve this technique comfortably, and attempting it without proper training can strain the vocal cords.
Speaking of which, Anielyn Guibone, a student from the University of Science and Technology of Southern Philippines in Cagayan De Oro, casually belted out “Pangarap Ko Ang Ibigin Ka,” popularized by Regine Velasquez, and her performance has gone viral on social media.
