This free-to-attend lecture was organised in celebration of World Voice Day, which is acknowledged across the globe, the main goal being to increase awareness of voice and voice issues.
During the lecture, experimental output and the timbron theory of human voice production were presented in an easy-to-understand graphical format. Dr. Chen then went on answer questions from course attendees.
We are pleased that over 300 voice professionals signed up for the event!
