Having listened to his music for a long time there are some characteristics that have become clear.
- Warbling When holding a note your voice should should “warble”, this is done by expelling just a bit of extra air every second, to create a high-low-high-low pattern that is very slight.
- High pitched voice While Sinatra was clearly male he had a range extending above that which most can reach, even attempting to emulate the voice is painful for most men. This is why when you try to sing one of his songs you can cover some lines easily but on others you have to go down an octave, and ruin the song.
- Accent The words must be clear
