Vocal Rehabilitation with a Multi-Disciplinary Team: The Strength of Collaboration in the Successful Remediation of Voice
Thursday 10th August 2023, 5:00 PM - 7:00 PM (London Time)
As we move into the 21st century, the model of an interdisciplinary voice team has become the standard of care in the treatment of voice problems.
In this session, we will review the history of this concept, the history of the singing voice specialist and current training challenges, the members of a voice team and how they collaborate in the treatment of each voice patient.
Special attention will be given to the relationship between the speech language pathologist and the singing voice specialist in the remediation of problems related to the speaking as well as the singing voice.
Typical exercise strategies will be explained and demonstrated.

Music Theory Fundamentals for Voice Pedagogues
Dr David Cane
Voice pedagogy has advanced significantly in the last decades in relation to knowledge of the vocal apparatus (anatomy and mechanics), acoustics, and performance psychology (to name just a few subfields) – this is a wonderful thing! Nonetheless, musicianship and the foundations of music theory are still relevant to the teaching and coaching of singers and this course aims to empower voice teachers and coaches with skills to support the fundamental musicianship development of their students.

Since we are not always aware of the source of tension or discoordination, it is difficult to make the necessary adjustments to ensure optimal use of the voice!
