This is the approved revision of this page, as well as being the most recent.
An extension of beltlike timbre higher than the typical first resonance tracking of 2fo characteristic of lower belt; somewhat analogous to close timbre (voce chiusa, in which 2fo has surpassed the first resonance), but brighter and shallower in timbre than its classical counterpart, and typically coupled with more speech-like articulation. Usually accessed using bright, open vowels such as /æ/ or /e/ and a high tongue dorsum.[1]
