Product Description
Now in Paperback! Teaching voice and vocal performance is by nature a subjective pursuit. This is the first book in the field of vocal pedagogy that draws on the brilliance and combined experience represented by an elite group of exemplary voice teachers. This research study and resulting book does not promote one teacher's perspective, nor does it promote one particular approach, but instead distills the best from the best, presenting nearly 30 quoted interviews from teachers of note.

A terrific survey of America's Master Teachers July 11, 2003
4 out of 5 found this review helpful
This collection of interviews is formatted well, offering specific concepts of vocal training in a concise and easily accessible way. It is wonderful to see the many approaches taken by some of these legendary teachers. The teachers represent themselves with humor and wit, and offer insightful and compassionate glimpses into their own pedagogies as well as the world of professional singing. Most of the teachers in this book are Master Teachers who have had many students go on to international performing careers. Among them are some legends of the teaching field, including Helen Hodam, Shirlee Emmons and Richard Miller. Some have published on their own, including Emmons and Miller, and most of them are still active teachers, either in the University setting, or of professional singers. i'd recommend this to any voice teacher as an invaluable book of ideas and new approaches, and to intermediate and advanced students for the professional advice, practical glimpse at what sort of teachers they should be looking for, and for the sometimes serious, sometimes hilarious anecdotes the teachers tell.
