Excerpt from Resonance in Singing and Speaking
When a youth it was my lot to be surrounded by examples of faulty vocalism, such as prevailed in a country town, and to be subjected to the errors then in vogue, having at the same time small Opportunity for training in the application of principles, even as then imperfectly taught. At middle life I had given up all attempt at singing and had difficulty in speaking so as to be heard at any considerable distance or for any considerable length of time. Professional Obligations to my patients, however, compelled me later to take up the subject of vocal physiology. This I did, guided by the ideas current on the subject.

Excerpt from Resonance in Singing and Speaking
Efforts to develop my own voice, and the voices of my patients after operations for cleft palate, aided by anatomical study, resulted in a plan for the focusing and development of the human voice quite different from any other yet published, or, so far as I know, yet proposed. This plan has proved so successful in my later life that I feel emboldened to offer it for the consideration of speakers and singers.
While twenty-five years ago few of the principles here described were acknowledged or even recognized, within the last decade almost all have been advocated separately by different teachers or writers. At the present time, therefore, originality consists only in the classification of the principles into a systematic, progressive whole, and in arranging a simpler and more practical method of applying them, thus making the desired results much more quickly attainable.
It is attempted in this volume only to describe the value of each element in the production of the perfect tone and to demonstrate the principles which, if properly and faithfully applied, will develop the best that is possible in each individual voice and prepare the pupil to enter upon the more advanced arts of speaking and singing.
In 1903 I prepared a series of papers on The Art of Vocalism, which were published in The Étude in May, June, and July of that year. These articles are incorporated in this work. In connection with different organs and conditions, important principles are stated and restated. This repetition is thought desirable in order that the fundamentals may be kept prominently before the mind and impressed upon the attention.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book, a study and guide to the art of vocal performance, offers a systematized approach to developing one's singing or speaking voice. The author, after examining the theories and techniques of past vocal instructors and examining the physiology of vocal production, presents a holistic method that incorporates aspects of breathing, tone focus, and resonance to enhance vocal ability. This book emphasizes the importance of nasal and head resonance in the production of a full, rich sound. Among the prevailing theories on vocal development, it advocates for a unified approach to singing and speaking, rather than focusing on distinct 'registers', and explores the psychological obstacles preventing many from achieving their full vocal potential. The author provides accessible instruction on vocal practices, and encourages singers and speakers to maintain an easy, relaxed posture during performance to maximize their effectiveness and avoid discomfort. The concepts in this book will prove of value to anyone looking to improve their voice, whether for singing or speaking. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 9781330250150_0
