To Anitta Soliz Nielsen may ‘growle’ by the viewers of the X Factor. Growling is a singing technique, there is known from dødsmetalgenren, where one sings with a dark, raw and roaring voice.
But Anitta Soliz Nielsen can also be something completely different. She is a trained chorister and works among other things in Søndersø Church, where she sings for both weddings and funerals.
– When I sing in church with my classical singing, I am to help the people in the church. On Sunday is of course church service, but the primary work is funeral services, babysalmesang and weddings. So I’m with to be the people’s voice, where they may not even have any. Either because they can’t sing, or because they are too bored of it to a funeral. So I can be their words and their voice, and it makes me happy that I can help them with it, she says.

on Thursday morning song Anitta Soliz Nielsen for both the babies and residents of the Vesterbo nursing home in Galway, where it again is the classic voice, she makes use of.
A diametrically opposed to it, she performs in the X Factor.
– Yes, it is very different than what I’m doing with my bands and in the X Factor, but for me it’s music the whole. Here I have one group of people, I can help, and with metalmusikken is it a different type of people, I help, says Anitta Soliz Nielsen.
Anitta Soliz Nielsen trained to sing classical, and she fell over death metal and death-song at an event, when she clicked on a You Tube video.
I heard a band called Arch Enemy, who are the greatest right now with a female singer. At the time I sang only classic and had never heard metal music. I stumbled across the video and heard it, and turned off with the same. I thought, this is not something for me. But then I was curious. How could she do it here (growle, red.) in a whole concert without losing his voice. And so, I was just goose bumps, and I just had to learn it here.

Now the growler she is in two bands, Blindheart and the North, and she hopes that she also gets to growle on in prime time.
– It could of course be really cool if we were allowed to get ahead of the X Factor, because X Factor is characterized by being main stream, only will have it is completely normal, so it would be nice if there come some slightly quirky types into also, says Anitta Soliz Jensen.
To the untrained ear can can growlvokalen sounds as if one just stands and doing some animal sounds, but Anitta Soliz Nielsen stresses that it requires technique to growle.
– If the common people would try to do it, perhaps they’d be able to get one sound out of two times, and then they would lose the voice. You use the same techniques as in the classical song with the same support (from the diaphragm, red.) so there’s much exercise in it, and it’s not for everyone.
Anitta Soliz Nielsen does not know whether it is the classic beautiful song or the devilish growl that set her heart almost.
– Oh, I can’t choose. It is the same as choosing which child you like best, so it I can not. In this way, where I work in the church and in the metalscenen, I get used all the parts of my personality, and it’s just nice, she says.
