Book Description

0393979938 978-0393979930 February 1, 2006

Designed for people who use their voices every day—from singers and actors to lawyers and radio announcers—The Performer’s Voice offers a complete guide to effective and healthy vocal production.

It takes the reader through a concise introduction to vocal mechanics, vocal color, expression, and personal presence, combined with the mental, physical, and imagination skills required for achieving dynamic performance. Through simple exercises, drawings, and clear explanations, the text takes a balanced, accessible pedagogical approach that emphasizes the infinite potential of the human voice.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Read, November 11, 2006
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I purchased this book for my voice studio class, but the information is helpful to anyone who uses his or her voice for a living. The author includes simple exercises (breathing, visualizing, posture, etc) that benefit greatly. It has helped me learn more about my voice, and I recommend it to all who want to take care of their voice.
