Je voulais aujourd'hui vous faire partager un petit article plutôt sympa mais pas non plus pittoresque sur les capacités vocales de Matthew Bellamy. On peut tous s'accorder à dire que sa voix reste à elle seule tout un phénomène. Voici donc une petite révision générale de son talent à travers un article. J'ai laissé ce dernier en anglais ne trouvant pas sa difficulté fulgurante, je demande pardon à l'avance pour tous les anglophobes mais n'oubliez pas que vous pouvez toujours poser des questions et qu'il ne faut pas hésiter ! Enjoy !

Matt Bellamy

Vocal Classification: Full-Lyric Tenor (possibly Spinto)

Vocal Range: A2 - G#5 - D6 (3 octaves, 3 notes)

Best Vocal Performances: Starlight, Plug In Baby, Knights of Cydonia, Madness, Spiral Static

Lower Register (A2 - F3): Matt’s lower register, although he barely goes below C#3, is dark, and is of a heavy, steely character (Spiral Static), and has great projection down Bb2, which these days, is a great bottom note for a tenor. Due to the darkness, ease, and steeliness present, he could be mistaken for a Spinto or Dramatic Tenor, however his voice is of a earthier, brighter nature than a large voice like that. As a whole, it’s an easy, effortless and dark register for him, and it could be useful if he uses this part of his range. 

Middle Register (F#3 - E4): The mid-range is of a dark, yet lighter tone than the lower register, and has a full timbre within. It’s used for intricate and dexterous phrasing, or paced, musical phrasing if needed (Explorers), and can use many different types of emotions to convey to the listener within this part of his voice.

Mixed Voice/Upper Chest (F4 - G#5): The mid-belts, from F4 to B4, are bright and resonant, and can use a gravelly vocal texture (Falling Down), but can also have a tone that is clear and perfect enunciation (Starlight, Sing for Absolution). The mixed voice is elastic, paper-thin, but has incredible sustaining abilities and can apply a slight huskiness as well (Plug In Baby). Even at the top his full voice, Matt’s sustaining powers are easily in the upper echelon of the male voice (Showbiz).

Falsetto/Head Register (B4 - D6): The falsetto from somewhere in the 4th octave to D5 is light and airy, but can have a creamier tone if needed (Map of the Problematique). However, above that is full, bright head voice that can have a wide, piercing vibrato (Micro Cuts, Survival). It’s underutilized, vocally, however.

Vocal Ability: Matt’s best ability is to change his vocal shaping, from being a small, light tone (Madness), to being a full, bigger tone (Suppermassive Black Hole). His phrasing is light and intricate, and he has the ability to use a raspy, husky texture whenever needed within his range. With a spot on enunciation, he’s very well off when it comes to pronounciation.

Natural Qualities: Matt’s tone is unique and full, with a slightly bright, yet fuller timbre and a wide, ringing vibrato with some great natural dexterity and a great vocal usage of phrasing and producing many different tones.

Overall: A-
