Implementing VoceVista in the Pedagogy Classroom!
Thursday 31st July 2025, 5:00 PM - 7:00 PM (London Time)
We will explore integrating VoceVista, a leading spectrograph software, into the vocal pedagogy classroom. Designed for voice teachers, vocal coaches, and pedagogy students, this course explores how real-time visual feedback can enhance traditional methods of voice instruction. By incorporating VoceVista into your teaching toolkit, you will be empowered to provide objective, evidence-based analysis of vocal production alongside your perceptual and experiential expertise.
VoceVista enables users to visualize sound through spectrograms, pitch traces, and formant overlays, allowing both teacher and student to "see" aspects of the voice that are otherwise intangible—such as resonance strategies, onset clarity, vibrato stability, and register transitions.
This course emphasizes practical application. We will explore how VoceVista can inform healthy vocal technique and demystify complex vocal concepts for singers at all levels. Whether teaching in private studios, academic settings, or group classes, you'll discover ways to tailor the software to fit your teaching style and student needs.
By the end of the course, you’ll hopefully feel more familiar with how VoceVista works and consider ways it might fit into your teaching—not as a replacement for the ear, but as a possible tool to help support student learning, spark engagement, and offer a visual bridge between the technical and artistic sides of singing.
Are you ready to bring the power of visualization into your voice teaching?
