Getting The House In Order: Training Functional Register For CCM
Thursday 10th November 2022, 5:00 PM - 7:00 PM (London Time)
In a functional approach to voice, transitioning seamlessly between the bottom and the top often requires isolation work to be done on the basic registers (a.k.a chest and falsetto).
When teachers can assess how functional the basic registers are, they can create plans to strengthen their coordination before they try to connect them.
In this workshop, Chris will share how he assesses and trains the basic registers to benefit the voice as a whole.
The added benefit is that the passaggio is also much easier to fathom when all registers are functional and contributing!

The Vocal Tract and Singing: A Research Overview!
Dr Brad Story
Fine control of the vocal tract shape is important for producing acoustic characteristics that may be targeted in singing. Join Dr Brad Story as he focuses on how the vocal tract shape can be tuned (i.e. modified) in both large and subtle ways to enhance the signal radiated from a singer to an audience. The session will include the vocal tract shape contributions to the ‘singing formant’, enhancement of vibrato, and harmonic/formant alignment.
