Effects can be measured visually [17] (e.g. by the same methods typically used to confirm the presence of vocal fold nodules: video endoscopy and video stroboscopy [17]), aerodynamically [17] (e.g. by measuring parameters such as transglottal pressure and the glottal airflow waveform [19]), perceptually [17] (e.g. by rating the voice in terms ...
The vocal folds are commonly referred to as vocal cords, and less commonly as vocal flaps or vocal bands. The term vocal cords was coined by the French anatomist Antoine Ferrein in 1741.

The intermediate and deep layers of lipopolysaccharides compose the vocal ligaments which are enclosed within the vocal folds and are responsible for strain in phonation. Within the extracellular matrix community of vocal ligament, fibrous proteins such as elastin and collagen are pivotal in maintaining the proper elastic biomechanical property ...
The music video aired on 29 July 2009. [140] [141] O'Riordan said of No Baggage "I probably haven't worn my heart on my sleeve like this since the second album No Need to Argue".

Adult male voices are usually lower-pitched and have larger folds. The male vocal folds (which would be measured vertically in the opposite diagram), are between 17 mm and 25 mm in length. [10] The female vocal folds are between 12.5 mm and 17.5 mm in length. The folds are within the larynx.
The album was also nominated for a 2007 Shortlist Music Prize. [33] As of 2010, Ys had sold 250,000 copies. [5] In 2009, she appeared in the music video for the song "Kids" by the group MGMT. [34] Also in 2009, Newsom appeared as a guest harpist on the Moore Brothers' album Aptos and played piano on Golden Shoulders' Get Reasonable. [35]
Successful non-classical baritones display a wide range of vocal qualities and effects that lend a unique character to their voices, many of which are considered undesirable in the operatic or classical baritone singer, such as "breathy" , [3] "distinguished…crooner" , [4] "growling" (Neil Diamond), [5] and even "ragged" (Bruce Springsteen).
