An Exploration of Belting
Tuesday 29th August 2023, 5:00 PM - 7:00 PM (London Time)
In this workshop, we will deepen our understanding of belting by looking at the historical context of belting and by discussing the multiple ways to define a belt. We will explore common problems belters run into in the studio, in addition to looking at the differences between working with beginning belters and more advanced belters.
You will hear real life examples from actual lessons so you can begin to understand how different stages of belt development sound on singers of various skills. Vocal health and repertoire concerns for beginners will also be discussed. Bring your questions and curiosities about belting! We will have time for questions and discussion.

Water Resistance Therapy and Semioccluded Devices for Voice Training
Dr Marco Guzmán
Several voice devices to perform water resistance therapy (WRT) and some oscillatory positive expiratory pressure devices (OPEP) (e.g. Acapella Choice, Shaker Medic Plus, New Shaker) are now commonly used for both voice training and voice therapy. Are these devices truly good for voice training? Are these devices the treatment by themselves? and how much evidence currently supports the use of these devices?
