Husky voice

Japanese: ハスキー・ボイス(英語表記)husky voice
Husky voice
A hoarse or rough voice. Jazz vocals do not use vocal techniques used in classical singing, and it is believed that a more shaded voice, closer to the way black people speak in everyday conversation, is better suited to expressing nuances than a clear, resonant voice. The husky voice is an extreme example of this. The popularity of the husky voice is due to the fact that white people have begun to adopt the singing style used by blacks in blues and other genres, and that the development of microphones and recording technology has made it possible for any voice to reach the ears of the audience.

Japanese:
しわがれ声もしくはざらざらした声。ジャズ・ボーカルではクラシック声楽のような発声法は用いられず,明瞭でよく響く声よりも,日常会話の発声に近くて陰影のある声のほうが,ニュアンスの表現に適すると考えられている。それを極端にしたのがハスキー・ボイスだといっていいだろう。ブルースなどで行われてきた黒人の歌い方を白人も取り入れるようになったこと,マイクロホンや録音技術の発達でどんな声でも聴衆の耳に届くようになったことが,ハスキー・ボイス流行の背景となっている。
