Description

Staging Voice explores the aesthetics of voice and its staging in performance, considering what it would mean to base opera's decisive attribute - voice - as the foundation of its staged performance.

This nuanced study brings together scholarly and directorial interpretations, examining less frequently performed works by influential 20th-century artists, such as Erik Satie, Bertolt Brecht, and Kurt Weill. It also introduces readers to an innovative experimental work by Evelyn Ficarra and Valerie Whittington.

The book is accompanied by the author's staging of accessible online works, making it a valuable resource for students and scholars in voice studies, opera, music theatre, directing, performance studies, practice-based research, theatre, visual art, stage design, and cultural studies.
