Rock 'n' 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 'n' 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. The So You Want to Sing series is produced in
partnership with the National Association of Teachers of Singing.
Like all books in the series, So You Want to Sing Rock 'n' Roll
features online supplemental material on the NATS website. Please

video files, and additional resources.
