Embodying Voice: Singing Verdi, Singing Wagner articulates the
process of developing an operatic voice, explaining how and why the
training of such a voice is as complex and sophisticated as it is
mysterious. This book illustrates how putting together a voice,
embodying a sound, and creating a character are vital to an
audience's emotional involvement and enjoyment. Moreover, it
addresses an imbalance of power between the opera director and the
orchestra conductor - ultimately, it is the communicative power of
the singer's voice that brings life to an opera, a fact well known
by Verdi and Wagner. Embodying Voice highlights the singer's
creative agency to be co-creator of the composer's music. It
explores the ways in which vocal performance is constructed and
controlled, connecting layers of mind and bodily engagement that
allow operatic singers to achieve expression beyond the text
itself. Further reading, listening, and performance lists are
provided at the end of each chapter, complemented by musical
examples throughout.
