The presentation of Mariah Carey node The Townin São Paulodivided opinions. More than music, however, another aspect caught the eye: the low movement of the singer during the show.

“It was very serious and I minimized the severity of the situation. I unleated my shoulder and my ribs. There was damage to my nerves.”

The artist’s talent

Unlike other divas, Mariah Carey naturally moves and dances little on stage to prioritize singing. It is considered one of the most striking voices of world pop music.

Mariah is mainly known for being able to reach five octaves, that is, repeat a note at five different levels of height, from the most severe to the most sharp easily.

When he wants to explore his acute vocal, Mariah makes use of the call Whistle Registeror “whistle record” in Portuguese. The technique represents the sharper record that the human voice can achieve and can even be imperceptible to the human ear in some cases.

Why show at The Town was “strange”

In text for Rolling Stone Brazilthe chief editor Felipe Grutter evaluated:

“What was seen on stage was an out -of -pace singer and seemingly uncomfortable, diverting looks and frequently resorting to Teleprompter – even to talk about the new album. […] Harmed by the low volume of the sound, to its strong point, the music was committed. The long costume exchanges – which left the band trying, unsuccessfully, to entertain the audience – and the constant stage exits further cooled the audience, which was slowly dispersed. […] A show that had everything to be memorable became a cold and disappointing experience. ”
