Deanna says! Yes!!! I have discovered this as well with (hiding behind
my desk) my teen students who I’ve been teaching to belt as well as

the coordination needed to belt without the accompanying neck tension

students to achieve the clarity (or “ping”) in that mid-upper register
and then go to the songs that need belting.
