  
There are two great videos on Youtube that show you the results of combining the most important vocal techniques: a free voice with a lot of 'ring' (resonance).
The videos start with breath support, and then add the open throat, the position of the larynx, a relaxed jaw, position of the tongue and the soft palate.
The result of these combined techniques is a beautiful tone and freedom. Both the great classical and pop singers use these techniques.
The training of classical singers is based on this sum of vocal techniques. The goal of their training is to master their instrument to the fullest.
Training the classical voice started hundreds of years ago.
A tradition has been built to teach singers how to use their voice in the best way possible.
Sadly enough many pop singers do not even care about training their voices. People like Barbara Streisand, Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey, Aretha Franklin, Beyonce and others developed their vocal technique. That is why their voices sound so good!
