Each two-day course
introduced the moveable structures of the vocal tract and explored
several basic vocal sets. All the participants had the chance to
experiment within the group, and either performed or observed the
Masterclasses that followed each days teaching. |
The first course was
attended by the students of the Academy, many of whom were both
singers and instrumentalists. This course contained more explanation
of the physiological properties of the vocal tract, together with
the development of vocal skills and performance choices.
The second course
was attended by performers, SLTs (logopedics), a laryngologist, and
a large number of teachers, including many of the Academys singing
tutors. This course was tailored to the needs of this diverse group
of participants, with more information about voice research and
specific references to application in teaching, performance and
clinical voice work. Healthy and efficient voice use was of
particular interest to this group – identifying habitual voice
patterns that might be unhealthy and understanding how to address
them.
