The Singer's Guide to German Diction is the essential foundation
for a complete course in German diction for singers, vocal coaches,
choral conductors, and anyone wishing to learn to learn the proper
pronunciation of High German. Written by Valentin Lanzrein and
Richard Cross, who each have years of experience on stage, in the
voice studio, and in the diction classroom, it provides an
all-encompassing and versatile reference for the rules of German
diction and their exceptions. Featuring an easily navigable format
that uses tables and charts to support a visual understanding of
the text, this guide allows the reader to find information on
diction rules and quick help with the formation of each sound. It
also places an emphasis on exceptions to the rules, which are
crucial in learning the proper pronunciation of any language.
Exceptions are not only provided with the diction rules, but are
also gathered in a specific section for ease of reference. A
glossary of difficult words, names, and exceptions is provided in
the appendix, along with a section on Latin pronounced in the
German manner. Extensive pronunciation exercises, as well as IPA
transcription worksheets and short examples from the vocal
literature, are used for practical application of the diction
rules, and feature musical exercises drawn from art song, opera,
and oratorio. The book's companion website supplements these
musical exercises with high-quality audio clips recorded by leading
professional singers, providing an invaluable resource for
independent study. A comprehensive companion for teachers,
students, and singers alike, The Singer's Guide to German Diction
brings German diction to life through its well-structured system of
practice and reference materials.
From the organization of a speech to knowing your audience, your
vocals, and the delivery, this essential guide covers an entire
course on public speaking yet is handy enough to reference
throughout your speech preparation. With more preparation comes
more confidence and with added inspiration throughout this guide
you will stand to deliver.
