I hope you don’t get queasy. I’m going to show you live video of a singer’s vocal cords as she sings.


You may want to sit down.


Hi! I’m Chuck Gilmore with Power To Sing


Many students feel singing is a great mystery. They don’t understand how their voice works, why it works the way it does, and what’s involved with singing.


Vocal Cords


It all begins with the vocal cords. Specialists look at your vocal cords with a flexible or rigid scope. The flexible scope is a small cord with a camera at the end of it. It’s inserted through the nose and extended down the throat to see the vocal cords.


The rigid scope is like a large pen with a camera at the end. It’s used looking into the mouth and throat.


Both images look like this. This can be confusing because the vocal cords are horizontal in the throat like this. They are not vertical like this. When the scope sees the cords and projects it on the monitor, they look like they’re vertical (or up and down).


Vocal cords...sometimes called vocal folds, are located in the mid-portion of your neck...about halfway between the top and bottom of your neck. There are two vocal cords and they’re connected in the front of your neck and open and close from the back of your neck.


They’re located inside the “voice box”, or larynx. The cords sit at the top of your windpipe or trachea.  Men can feel the top of their “voice box” often called the “Adam’s Apple”. Women have the same thing but it’s smaller and harder to feel with your finger.


Your vocal cords are just behind the Adam’s Apple. Now women can sometimes feel their Adam’s Apple by placing their finger here and gently pushing in on their neck, and about the first lump that you feel is the top of the larynx. About halfway down your neck you can feel that small bump. That’s your Adam’s Apple, ladies, and your vocal cords are just behind it. I can feel a small “v” right in the center of the top of my Adams Apple. That’s cartilage.


At birth, our vocal cords are the same length, approximately 2mm. By age 20, women’s cords are about 10 mm and men’s 16mm in length. The change for men is much greater and this causes a deepening of the voice and can make singing during the vocal change much harder.


Vocal cords are tissue and are 3 dimensional. That means that they have length, width and depth. Just like other tissue in your body there are different layers of tissue. Vocal cords have 3 primary layers, muscle, ligament, and mucosa. That’s the slick outer layer of the vocal cord.


The vocal cords open when we breath, and come together when we make noise with our voices, and are covered up when we swallow.  A type of lid, called the epiglottis, closes over the vocal cords when we swallow. Sometimes fluid gets through and we cough to clear it out...


Watch and listen as these vocal cords create the vibrations that become our voices. [Demo]


Do you know your vocal type? I’m not talking about whether you’re a soprano, alto, tenor or bass. Your vocal type helps you understand what your vocal cords tend to do when you sing.


For example, if you are a light chest/no chest vocal type, that means your vocal cords are not closing as firmly as is needed.


With each vocal type, your vocal cords tend to do specific things as you sing.


Once you know your vocal type you can begin eliminating weaknesses in your voice and get the singing voice you want.
