After hundreds years of flourish in the westren world, the bel canto which comes from the western europe classical vocal science came into China in the early 20century by western churchman and international students. But after nearly hundred years developing and transmiting in china the bel canto still not make a big influence on Chinese people. The reason is that there are a lot of misunderstandings of the vocal conceptions grow up on the process of transmiting of the bel canto. These misunderstandings come from the sing technics, the attitudes of admire and some misunderstandings are beyond vocal element. All the misunderstandings lead Chinese men' s prejudices on bel canto.The impressions of "stress" , "tremble" and "strong" of bel canto for Chinese people are derived from early Eastern Europe bel canto. This kind of voice is disliked by Chinese people and make people far from it. So, there are only few professional people to make the bel canto survive but none sufficient colony to make the bel canto blooming.Because of cultural obturated and unitary teaching, many professionals also possess misunderstandings on bel canto. These misunderstandings are the portamento, the tremoloand overtone, the quavery, the colorature, the lyric, the tempo and the attitudes of special voice etc. These misunderstandings have being baffling the developing of the bel canto seriously. It is necessary to correcting these misunderstandings.We should keep a sane attitude to improve the bel canto. The melting of two different cultures need a long time combining and to find a proper point which make them filter into each other but no conflict. At present, there is no man has the ability to find the point in China. And even though one of the most successful vocalist in China miss BixiaWu only can sing the bel canto and the Chinese traditional singing style separately. So we need a long time to wait and reconsider that is there any necessary to improve the bel canto.For the mistakes out of singing elements: the mistakes of singers' figure, the mistakes of the singing specialism, the mistakes of the audiences, etc, all of these are the obstacles of the transmiting of the bel canto. Only to solve these obstacles can help the bel canto singers to get rid of the embarrassed complexion.
