The Empty Voice

This book offers opera singers a method and the tools that will assist them in developing their roles and the dramatic action of a scene.  When singers study a libretto for acting clues and the score for musical clues they gain greater insight into their roles and have a better understanding of the music and a finer perception of the dramatic shape of their scenes.  The techniques offered will give the singer means to examine characters in depth, plot, and the conflicts in any scene.  Singers who have that foundation are more relaxed, confident, focused - and able to sing better.  Paperback book, 224 p.
