The second factor is insufficient singing appearance accumulation. The singing appearance is the sourse and base of imagination. Without the accumulation of singing appearance, one is difficult to imagine. Then the author puts forward that the training of vocal art imagination should start from the following four aspects:the accumulation of singing appearance, the accumulation of vocal works, direct life accumulation and indirect social experience. The accumulation of musical representation includes the accumulation of musical language and musical works.The musical language’s learning and accumulation is the premise of singing and the accumulation of singing appearance. The accumulation of vocal music works includes appreciating and singing many vocal works. Appreciating and singingas as many vocal works as possible also can virtually increase the accumulation of singing appearance. The accumulation of these is the necessary knowledge and skills store for vocal learners before they learn to sing. Each person will have direct life accumulation and indirect social experience. The accumulation of these life appearance is in subtle affecting the individuals. So in our daily life, we must cultivate a good habit to observe more, read more books and love to learn. These accumulated life experiences can promote the learning capability.Imagination can visualize the vocal learning theoretical knowledge, crystallize abstract knowledge, and improve the efficiency and effectiveness of vocal learning. Therefore, in the process of vocal training, performance and vocal teaching, both teachers and vocal learners should pay attention to and make good use of the imagination.
