Description

Rock lsquo;nrsquo; roll is a style that was born out of the great American melting pot. An outgrowth of the blues; rock n roll music combines driving rhythms; powerful chords; and lyrics that communicate the human experience to audiences around the world. Although rock singing was once seen as a vulgar use of the human voice and was largely ignored by the academic community; voice teachers and singers around the world have recently taken a professional interest in learning specialized techniques for singing rock n roll.So You Want to Sing Rock n Roll gives readers a comprehensive guide to rock history; voice science; vocal health; audio technology; technical approaches to singing rock; and stylistic parameters for various rock subgenres. Matthew Edwards; assistant professor of voice at Shenandoah Conservatory; provides easy-to-understand explanations of technical concepts; with tips for practical application; and suggestions for listening and further reading.So You Want to Sing Rock lsquo;nrsquo; Roll includes guest-authored chapters by singing voice researchers Dr. Scott McCoy and Dr. Wendy LeBorgne; as well as audio and visual examples available from the website of the National Association of Teachers of Singing. This work is not only the ideal guide to singing professionals; but the perfect reference work for voice teachers and their students; lead and back-up singers; record producers and studio engineers.
