For many people, getting to the belt the national anthem in front of a crowd seems to be a dream come true. You sing a classic tuning in front of a captive audience, and you can all guarantee a thunder applause when the performance ends. (Perhaps with a military jet displacement!) However, ask most interpreters if they enjoy the thought of delivering a reintegration of "star banner" and you will hear the same answer: definitely not.

The question is: why?

"[It's] a delicate song," says the actress andvocal coachKate Vander Linden, who played like Jovie in the first national tour of Broadway ofElf the musical comedy. "If you start too high of the key, it is inevitable that you had to completely modify the keys halfway, or the high rating at the end is inaccessible (Unless you areBeyonce) You will appear as asqueaky Unless the key is right right. "

That's why you are all sources to hear the craft artists of the song at Sporting Events starting the song on a very weak note ("Oooooooo say say ....?") -Illt are preparing on the rise of the Russian mountains of Octave later.

And while the range of songs of one and a half octave is not necessarily a stretch for elite interpreters (Mariah Carey has aFive octave rangeFor example), sudden jumps between weak and high tickets and height changes make it a very difficult song to sing.

This is not the only reason the singers fear the national anthem.

With most songs, it is unlikely that the entire public know each word and note. Not if with "the starred banner." Remember that the performances of the song are usually done in front of thousands of people who have heard and sung thousands of times before. (While the musicians say, you can hit 99 out of 100 notes. It's this missed note that the audience will notice.)

"It's the framework that raises the stakes. Typically, there are a lot of things on horseback," says SingerMella Barnes, which notes that, despite the large groups, generally present for the performance of the song, the hearing of the national anthem is rarely the main public of events and impatient can be a difficult crowd.

"There are also a lot of examples of great hymns (Whitney Houston comes to mind) or terrible examples (Fergie) Many singers can fend for themselves, "says Barnes". It is also the only song that a singer will do that night, so they have only one chance to do a good job as opposed to a whole show or even a couple of songs. It's nervous-drop for even the best of us! "
