A sound that includes velopharyngeal opening, allowing some degree of airflow and sound through the nares. Opening the velopharyngeal port can actually dampen a singer’s voice;the larger the VPO, the more muffled the resultant sound. However, a small VPO increases intensity of high frequency content radiated from the mouth and decreases the intensity of low frequency content by broadening the bandwidth of the first formant.[1]
