Training the Passaggi of Classical Genre Voices
Thursday 29th June 2023, 5:00 PM - 7:00 PM (London Time)
This class will be focused on practical pedagogic strategies for training voices in smooth negotiation of range.
Special attention will be given to those transitions, both laryngeal and acoustic, that challenge efficient function.
While we will be primarily attending to the aesthetic targets of the classical genre, the strategies included are relatively genre neutral and can be adapted to any styles seeking a smooth, even traversing of the range.
Basic elements of acoustic vocal pedagogy will be referenced, but previous exposure to the principles of acoustic pedagogy as routinely presented by Bozeman will be assumed.

Music Theory Fundamentals for Voice Pedagogues
Dr David Cane
Voice pedagogy has advanced significantly in the last decades in relation to knowledge of the vocal apparatus (anatomy and mechanics), acoustics, and performance psychology (to name just a few subfields) – this is a wonderful thing! Nonetheless, musicianship and the foundations of music theory are still relevant to the teaching and coaching of singers and this course aims to empower voice teachers and coaches with skills to support the fundamental musicianship development of their students.

Embodied voice research: negotiating the ‘inner’ and outer’
Marth Munro
The central thrust of the session will be around the employment of Donald Schön’s concept of ‘reflection-in-action’ and ‘reflection-on-action’ to contextualise the potential interface between the inner and the outer in embodied voice research.
