Important advice for teachers of voice, with emphasis on the importance of registration as the bedrock of vocal training.

BIBLIOGRAPHY


“The ability to use the full power of the upper voice when occasion demands is necessary and right, but merely to be able to sing high and loud means nothing. All that is required for that is a strong physique and determination. Such voice building requires but little time and no musical sense whatsoever; but to be able to sing the upper register with power, emotional intensity, musical quality and ease, is the result of long and careful work under the ear of a teacher whose sense of tone quality is so refined that it will detect instantly the slightest degree of resistance and not allow it to continue.”


““It is the mentality of the individual, not the body that is musical or unmusical”
