2-Part Course: An Introduction To Endoscopic Interpretation
Thursday 13th October 2022, 7:30 PM - Tuesday 18th October 2022 7:30 PM (London Time)
Part 1
Voice Teachers and singers are invited to this course to learn about the voice through the lens of the endoscopic examination.
Learn about the diagnostic process from the entrance to the nasal passage to the vocal folds.
Discover how the endoscopic process informs the physician, the vocalist, and the singing teacher.
Learn why the rush to see the vocal folds often bypasses some of the most useful information in the higher pharynx.
Part 2
Voice teachers and singers who have attended An Introduction to Endoscopic Interpretation Part One are invited to join this course to learn about stroboscopic evaluation.
In this class participants will learn about mucosal waves and how the amplitude of these is directly related to the strength of the harmonics and overall spectral envelope.
Learn how to rate these discrete features and understand how they relate to the diagnostic process.
Sorry, this is an archived short course...

Low Male Voices (LMVs): Development, Technique, and Repertoire
Dr Dann Mitton
Join Dr Dann Mitton for this two hour workshop where he explores the Development, Techniques, and Repertoire favoured for Low Male Voices (LMVs). Typically labelled as 'Bass' and 'Baritone', these classifications are used in classical music, choral settings, and vocal pedagogy to help determine suitable repertoire and vocal roles. In contemporary music, the distinctions are less rigid but still useful for understanding vocal range and timbre.

Picking Up Good Vibrations: Pedagogical and Clinical Voice Analysis!
Dr Calvin Baker
Voice teachers and clinicians strongly rely on auditory perceptual modes of voice evaluation. These are considered the gold standard for assessing voice quality and training effects (e.g., a singer’s progress from lesson to lesson or across voice therapy). Join Dr Calvin Baker as he explores techniques for instrumentally analysing the singing voice. Specific considerations for the challenges of obtaining reliable, robust, and comparable data will be presented, and practical recommendations for recording and analysing the singing voice in pedagogical and clinical contexts will be made.

The Pedagogy of Vibrato: Integrating Science and Studio Practice
Dr Justin John Moniz
Vibrato is more than just a shimmer in the sound—it’s one of the voice’s most powerful tools for artistry and expression. In this dynamic course, Justin John Moniz—Associate Director of Vocal Performance and Coordinator of Vocal Pedagogy at NYU Steinhardt, and Associate Editor of the Journal of Singing—pulls back the curtain on vibrato, blending history, science, and studio know-how into an engaging exploration for singers and teachers alike.
