Description

The voice is one of the fundamental modes of self-expression, a key touchstone of identity and sense of self. Many people are looking to change their voices for various reasons, whether it's to overcome a speaking challenge or cultivate a professional skill. Voice Work offers a wide-ranging introduction to the repair, improvement, development, and exploration of the spoken and sung voice. The book draws from all major vocal professions and paths within voice work, providing guidance for developing the voice alongside detailed insights into the work of voice instruction. It also covers new topics such as the history of voice work, public speaking, and the applications of technology. With its balance of rigorous scholarship and practical insights, Voice Work is a valuable resource for spoken voice teachers, singing teachers, and speech and language therapists and pathologists.
