Belting in musical theatre

Belting in musical theatre is a singing technique that involves singing with a powerful, resonant voice in the higher vocal range, often at a loud volume. It requires controlled breath support, proper vocal placement, and advanced technique to produce a rich, intense sound without straining the voice. Belting allows performers to express strong emotions and connect with the audience, making songs sound both vibrant and dramatic. It is a staple in musical theatre but must be learned carefully to avoid vocal damage.
