The article deals with one of the important problems of studying the role and function of the torso in the process of vocalization and related singing breathing and the formation of correct posture during singing. This will make it possible to scientifically substantiate the physiological patterns of the human body and make the process of singing activity as a whole more understandable and transparent. The issue is revealed in the relationship of such components as: the work of the autonomic nervous system, which signals motor tasks to muscle fibers in the human body, and the general functioning of the respiratory system, which performs a full respiratory cycle. In this context, the process of breathing during vocalization is analyzed in detail and the role of each torso organ is determined separately. It is noted that physiological singing breathing is regulated by motor tasks of various types, including: slow set, fast set, medium set in the muscle fibers of the diaphragm during exhalation, and so on. Attention is focused on the fact that physiological breathing includes the entire plane of the lower torso, so that the lower ribs, diaphragm, back muscles, and chest participate in the vocalization process, which can work simultaneously. At the same time, the amplitude of a person’s respiratory movements will depend on the physiological and psychological and emotional state of the person. The methodology of this study is to change its angle, which will allow us to identify the essential components of the torso and analyze their role in the process of vocalization. Scientific novelty consists in identifying the mechanisms of interaction between various components of the human torso and their influence on the process of sound extraction. The practical significance of the study lies in the focus on safe approaches in the formation of singing breathing skills during the vocalization process. The results of the study can be used for further research and development of vocal techniques.
