"There were already many excellent books on different aspects of voice work in singing, speaking and voice therapy, but I was interested in exploring what is core to all those practices, whilst still acknowledging the differences. For those of us who work in voice, there is fascination and deep enjoyment in so many aspects of the everyday psychophysiological miracle that enables us to share our common humanity as we chat, persuade, whisper, scream, sing, confess, act, enquire, celebrate, mourn, request, pray, argue, complain, caress, energize, soothe - and so much more. I wanted to write a book in a style that would be easily accessible and not confined to the pages of a specialist journal. which would explore and express the artistic, and even mysterious aspects of voice, along with relevant science-based theory, and a multitude of practical ideas. Voice work involves choosing from a rich repertoire of options for action, from disciplined craft and |

repeated physical work, to emotional exploration and imaginative improvisation. Good voice practice involves thoughtful choices that are bespoke for each individual or group, delivered with clarity, sensitivity and adaptability; it is not about gurus, nor about the idea that one 'method' fits everyone"-- |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
Many graduate students continue to be regarded as 'apprentices' despite the fact that they are expected to design and teach their own classes, serve on university committees, and conference and publish regularly. The Chronicle of Higher Education reports that the attrition rate for American Ph.D. programmes is at an all-time high, between 40% and 50% (higher for women and minorities). Of those who finish, only one in three will secure tenure-track jobs. These statistics highlight waste: of millions of dollars by universities and of time and energy by students. Rather than teaching graduate students how to be graduate students, then, the guide prepares them for what they really seek: a successful academic career. |
