A New Handbook for Singers and Teachers - 9780190920456

This book is an instruction/reference manual for young singers, advanced performers, and singing teachers. Several facets of this book are unique and set it aside from other vocal pedagogy books. It is presented in two coordinated parts. Part One contains specific instruction in how to sing. Part Two offers details in how to teach singing: a wealth of information that is applicable throughout a singing life. Part One offers detailed, illustrated descriptions of the vocal mechanism and its function, as well as related exercises and vocalises. It also incorporates diction rules, information related to aspects of the young voice, the aging voice, audition strategies, and more. Part Two includes specific, practical advice on how to train singers to perform effectively, set up a teaching studio, and create lesson plans. Finally, this book provides an internet bibliography that lists pertinent websites. The continued lifelong relevance of the book is a major aspect. It is a book to be referred to over and again--
