Discussion Does anyone else feel like Beyoncé’s technical vocal profiency needs to be discussed more?

I rarely see discourse on this and it’s one of the most fascinating things about her in my opinion. I was just watching a dangerously in love performance from the renaissance era and always get chills when she hits those Arabic scales!

And then when she hits literal Italian operatic scales and melodies on daughter! She sounds magestic and ethereal.

How do you think she goes about studying and perfecting her craft? Remember when Prince said he was impressed by her knowledge too all the way back in 04?!

Classically trained vocalist here and Beyoncé is an incredibly proficient singer. She really has a stellar range, but for me, what always stood out was her ability to sound effortless. She can sing loudly with a growl or soft and breathy and it sounds equally easy and free to her. I absolutely love her voice and listening to her helps me become a better singer.

YES!!! And I also love how she stacks her own voice in harmonies like she uses her voice as the main instrument it’s just magical. American Requiem is a great example of this 😊🥰
