Vibrato and Non-Vibrato Singing

Thursday 22nd June 2023, 7:00 PM - 9:00 PM (London Time)

Vibrato is a periodic variation in some aspect of vocal output.  Although frequency vibrato is the most commonly recognized type of vibrato, many other facets of singing production vary, especially the amplitude and the timbre. 

This course will relate what we currently know about vibrato and non-vibrato singing, demonstrate how we measure and describe vibrato, discuss means to address vibrato and vibrato related issues in studio teaching, and demonstrate methods for training better listening to vibrato in teaching.

Various studies the author has led will be discussed as they relate to course topics.
