Everything resonates at a certain frequency, from Tuning Forks to buildings to the Earth itself. When a resonant frequency of a particular object is hit, that object with vibrate in sympathy with that frequency. If the frequency is of a high enough amplitude, the vibrations will cause an object to eventually disintegrate.
So the answer is YES, if a singer (well trained) directs all of the sound energy through their vocal chords at a piece of crystal and they are singing at the PRECISE frequency that the crystal resonates at, the glass will indeed break. I've seen it with my own eyes.
Hope this helps,
