Excerpt from Resonance in Singing and Speaking
When a youth it was my lot to be surrounded by examples of faulty vocalism, such as prevailed in a country town, and to be subjected to the errors then in vogue, having at the same time small Opportunity for training in the application of principles, even as then imperfectly taught. At middle life I had given up all attempt at singing and had difficulty in speaking so as to be heard at any considerable distance or for any considerable length of time. Professional Obligations to my patients, however, compelled me later to take up the subject of vocal physiology. This I did, guided by the ideas current on the subject.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book, a study and guide to the art of vocal performance, offers a systematized approach to developing one's singing or speaking voice. The author, after examining the theories and techniques of past vocal instructors and examining the physiology of vocal production, presents a holistic method that incorporates aspects of breathing, tone focus, and resonance to enhance vocal ability. This book emphasizes the importance of nasal and head resonance in the production of a full, rich sound. Among the prevailing theories on vocal development, it advocates for a unified approach to singing and speaking, rather than focusing on distinct 'registers', and explores the psychological obstacles preventing many from achieving their full vocal potential. The author provides accessible instruction on vocal practices, and encourages singers and speakers to maintain an easy, relaxed posture during performance to maximize their effectiveness and avoid discomfort. The concepts in this book will prove of value to anyone looking to improve their voice, whether for singing or speaking. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
