Excerpt from Style in Singing
This last tone was delivered with the full force and brilliance of her magnificent voice, and was prolonged until the thrill produced in the listener became almost painful in its intensity. Again I ask, why did this world-famous singer perform this passage always in the same way? Unrefiecting people may reply vaguely that it was because the artist sang with expression. But what constitutes expression in singing? No great artist - no matter what the vehicle or medium through which his art finds manifestation - does anything at random. The wind bloweth where it listeth only in appearance; in reality, it is governed by immutable law. Similarly, the outward form of an art is only apparently dictated by caprice and freedom from rule. The effective presentation of every art is based on well defined and accepted principles. And it is with the earnest desire to throw light on this most important phase of vocal art, that I present the principles of Style in Singmg.
