Riassunto:

Breathing and support are considered cornerstones of a secure vocal technique for classical singing.  No area of vocal pedagogy has been more controversial and, despite recent advances in the understanding of how the respiratory system functions, both in speech and song, some breath management strategies for singing continue to be at odds with scientific fact.  Furthermore, many singers find the development of these skills a challenge. 

In this practical, and concise book, Ron Morris, speech pathologist and singer, and Linda Hutchison, singer and singing teacher,  introduce Accent Method breathing – a technique that is well grounded in science, as it is based on the structure and function of the respiratory system – and demonstrate with exercises, how it helps develop effective breathing and support in singers. The science and theory is presented in a language that singers and their teachers will easily understand, and the book is written in a style that is both engaging and entertaining.

Recensione: 'I thoroughly recommend this valuable addition to Vocal Pedagogy'. From the foreword by Janice L. Chapman, OAM, FGS, Guildhall School of Music and Drama, London[to follow] '... will invaluable for those already working as singing teachers, those who are developing their skills to become singing teachers and to singers who want a better understanding of how their breathing works. It will also be immensely helpful to speech and language therapists working in the area of voice disorder...' From the Foreword by Sara Harris, FRCSLT, Past-President, The British Voice Association
