The Developing Voice

Thursday 2nd September 2021, 5:00 PM - 7:00 PM (London Time)

At every age vocal function is dependent on how the body progressively and constantly changes.

This presentation will outline those changes alongside the consequential expectations for the coordinated effort and interplay of respiration, vibration, and resonance when singing. 

What changes impact expectations at different times during the life span?  Hormones? Breath? Vibration? Resonance?
