Singing has been a characteristic behaviour of humanity across
several millennia. Chorus America (2009) estimated that 42.6
million adults and children regularly sing in one of 270,000
choruses in the US, representing more than 1:5 households.
Similarly, recent European-based data suggest that more than 37
million adults take part in group singing. The Oxford Handbook of
Singing is a landmark text on this topic. It is a comprehensive
resource for anyone who wishes to know more about the pluralistic
nature of singing. In part, the narrative adopts a lifespan
approach, pre-cradle to senescence, to illustrate that singing is a
commonplace behaviour which is an essential characteristic of our
humanity. In the overall design of the Handbook, the chapter
contents have been clustered into eight main sections, embracing
fifty-three chapters by seventy-two authors, drawn from across the
world, with each chapter illustrating and illuminating a particular
aspect of singing. Offering a multi-disciplinary perspective
embracing the arts and humanities, physical, social and clinical
sciences, the book will be valuable for a broad audience within
those fields.
