Questions & Answers about kouon wa uragoe, teion wa futsuu no koe de utau.

How do you read this sentence?

A natural reading is:

こうおん は うらごえ、ていおん は ふつう の こえ で うたう。

Word readings:

• 高音 = こうおん = high notes / high pitch
• 裏声 = うらごえ = falsetto
• 低音 = ていおん = low notes / low pitch
• 普通 = ふつう = normal / ordinary
• 声 = こえ = voice
• 歌う = うたう = to sing

Why are there two は particles?

The two は mark two contrasting topics:

• 高音は = as for the high notes
• 低音は = as for the low notes

So the sentence sets up a contrast:

• for high notes, use falsetto
• for low notes, use a normal voice

This is a very common use of は in Japanese: not just topic-marking, but also contrast.

Why is there no particle after 裏声?
