| | Vocal music - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | A short piece of vocal music with lyrics is broadly termed a song. | | | Vocal music is music performed by one or more singers, with or without instrumental accompaniment, in which singing provides the main focus of the piece. | | | The interest in vocal music is typically carried by the use of lyrics, although there are some notable examples of vocal music that are performed (in part or completely) using non-linguistic syllables or noises, either in imitation of other sounds or in the abstract. |

| | Vocal percussion - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | The term "Beatboxing" is often used as a synonym for vocal percussion, but in fact is just one type of percussion, often used to accompany hip-hop music. | | | The vocal percussion used by most college and professional a cappella groups attempts a more complete facsimile of the pop music that these groups primarily perform. | | | Vocal percussion is also an integral part of many world music traditions, most notably in the traditions of North India (bols) and South India (solkattu). |

| | Percussion instrument - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | They are perhaps the oldest form of musical instruments, rivaled only by vocal. | | | Because percussion covers such a diverse range of musical styles, rhythms, melodies and harmonies, percussion virtuosi are often some of the most widely skilled and accomplished musicians in the music industry. | | | Percussion instruments play not only rhythm, but also melody and harmony, and percussion could also be the only category of instruments that has musical notation in all three of the traditional clefs (treble, bass and rhythm- though sometimes bass clef is simply substituted for rhythm clef). |

| | Vocal range - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Vocal range for women is only slightly more freely determined: The same criteria broadly apply, but women of the highest voice type (soprano) can on occasion deploy their flageolet register to reach very high notes despite a typically noticeable difference in timbre. | | | In opera, two considerations are paramount in determining vocal range: consistency of timbre across the vocal range, and ability to project the pitches (that is, to be heard clearly over an orchestra without amplification). | | | The importance of vocal range varies in popular music. |

| | Vocal crack - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Vocal cracking is an obvious switch in vocal registration caused by the singer's vocal cords' inability to handle maintaining a particular vocal pitch while simultaneously changing its vocal dynamic, or by a singer attempting to reach a pitch beyond the capabilities of a particular vocal register. | | | Vocal cracking is nearly absent in professional singing and thus is a sign of lack of proper vocal training. | | | Vocal cracking also occurs during puberty, when teenagers' vocal cords catch up to their developing larynges, as the vocal adductor muscles struggle to regain their strength at this new speaking voice pitch. |
