   Number 1: An Ideal Curriculum for Singers?

   What would the ideal non-academic vocal curriculum look like? Brian and Justin explore just such an idea in this episode. Based on the work of British pedagogue Peter T. Harrison, a vocal training program would include much that remains outside the scope of the present academic model. Taken from Harrison's 2013 book, "Singing: Personal and performance values in training" another way of considering voice training is discussed for the modern voice student and independent voice trainer. Harrison's books: Singing: Personal and performance values in training The Human Nature of the Singing Voice. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

   Number 2: Voice in higher education?

   Both Brian and Justin have prepared a lot of students for college and conservatory auditions. But what are these young people getting into? Is a performing arts degree a vocational program? Does it prepare students for professional performance? Should it? What are the differences between a BM in vocal performance and a BFA in Musical Theatre? We have also had many students who are in these programs, or recently graduated, who are still trying to figure out their voices. How does a young singer get a degree in voice but still have major gaps in their ability to get work in the field? Getting post-secondary voice programs to both fit into a university degree and thoroughly train young singers is a huge task that often falls short. How can it be improved? Hosted on Acast.

   Number 3: Dogma in the Voice Teaching Profession

   Justin and Brian begin their discussion with the rise of dogmatic thinking in voice teaching in the 19th century, how it became various "methods", and how it can hinder learning and innovation. The "Old Italian School" was not based on a method, although many current teachers advertise that they teach old Italian methods. How does the rise of science and the Information Age allow dogmatic thinking to continue? What does teaching and learning look like with more open attitudes to how to teach principles and actions of good singing? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
