Effective Studio Application Strategies

Thursday 19th January 2023, 5:00 PM - 7:00 PM (London Time)

This class will be focused on practical pedagogic applications by exploring effective studio strategies for respiration, pre-phonatory tuning, onset mode, phonation mode, articulation, resonance tuning and balance, range and passaggio negotiation, passive vowel migration, active vowel modification, and the necessary migrations of somatosense and timbre across range.

It will be grounded in the deeply programmed, innate, expressive source of voicing and will assume previous exposure to the principles of acoustic pedagogy as routinely presented by Bozeman.

Exploring the roots of the tongue: Ideas for performance

Walt Fritz

As a relative outsider looking into the voice and performance world, I witness the bell curve of thoughts and actions on how the tongue contributes to voice problems and how best to tame that tension. Traditional ways of taming tongue tension seem adequate (or would seem so, based on feedback), so what is different and new? In this short course for the Voice Study Centre, Walt Fritz will introduce the learner to variations on self-applied tongue stretches and exercises.

Emotion and Performing Accents and Dialects: why does Emotion Get in the Way?

Emotion and Performing Accents and Dialects: why does Emotion Get in the Way?

Louisa Morgan

At points of heightened emotion, it is common for actors working in an accent to default to their natural speech. How do we help performers to avoid this issue and provide them and their directors with the confidence they need regardless of the emotional demands of the piece? What can we learn from research in vocal expression of emotion to help actors to embody the emotion and keep control of their voice and accent? Our very own Louisa Morgan will guide participants through the latest research and offer practical suggestions for working with performers needing to navigate this challenge.
