“…Darkness is associated acoustically with lowered formant frequencies ( Sundberg, 1970 ; Sundberg, 1973 ) and may stem from specific vocal tract shaping, including a lowered larynx and widening of the pharynx ( Bloothooft and Plomp, 1986 ; Hertegård, 1990 ). Evidence further suggests that vocal tract shaping counter to that associated with darkness (i.e., larynx raising, pharynx widening) results in bright tone quality commonly described as “twang” ( Titze et al , 2003 ; Perta et al , 2020 ), which is possibly also accompanied by a wider lip opening and a constricted oral cavity ( Story et al , 2001 ). Darkness is considered complementary, and not opposed, to brightness (despite terminological implication), as one of the two components of chiarascuro.…”
