"Singing like Callas and Caruso - Belcanto Voice & Body Training" is not an academic code for Opera singers, even if it introduces you into all secrets of your authentic voice. Dr. Karin Wettig started as a pilgrim to the Rome of Singers after her divorce: not her heart, but her voice broke. The irony of fate sent her to a radio station to become a speaker. Whatever she tried with her voice, nothing really worked. Instead of taking the highway, she felt like creeping on her knees to Rome, where she arrived as a secret pupil of the Papal chapel in Renaissance, staring through a Judas hole to observe how the young castratos studied singing. Fascinated with Belcanto since 1600, her personal vocal studies ended constantly in disasters: she fell asleep in classes of an empathetic lady; a Japanese piano professor shouted encouragement and pushed her through old Italian arias until her voice had broken into two: a rough alto and a squeaking soprano and nearly nothing but a throaty flow of air in between. The next teacher, a tenor offered her a male shoulder when she broke into tears trying to sing Mozart arias for 4 months. Finally when she got it "waterlessly," he left for a better career. Another tenor put her into a zoo of animals voices, forbidding her to sing for two years. Musically starving, she ran away to secret classes with a conductor who helped her study a repertoire. Night for night, she sat in spooky dimlight churches training arias. Then Ann Reynolds Italian method fascinated her in a masterclass. The result was her first inspired book about Italian Singing. Exploring the theory behind her practice then became a pleasure for her musicological brain. But suddenly she stopped to use only awareness she had trained in years of body therapy with Alexandertechniqe, Rolfing, Feldenkrais, Linklater, Cantieni, Hatha Yoga and various spiritual breathing methods. Analizing videos from the best divas of all times - Maria Callas, Joan Sutherland, Luisa Tetrazzini and others - followed. Observing minuscule body and throat movements brought her a breakthrough. After two decades she discovered her authentic Coloratura Soprano and finally became the boss of her rigid tongue. "Behind every weakness hides a talent " is her motto now. For her own voice training she developed amusing exercises, easy to do for the cure of all typical singers' faults around passaggio, Avanti, front positioning, messa di voce, vowel balance, the attack of the tone and legato. That was the moment the Book and Method "Singing like Callas and Caruso" were born, when she finally reached not only to find her authentic Belcanto voice, but to change singers' voices during her classes within ten minutes of training. As a vocal coach and Personality Styling Coach Dr. A.S. Karin Wettig lives and teaches in Munich. For training, videos, book information and classes you can meet her on her website.

Karin Wettig, Belcanto in Theorie und Praxis: Gesang Stimme, Korper, Atem. Handbuch fur Gesang und Buhne. Auf 300 Seiten bringt das Handbuch fur Belcanto wichtige Erkenntnisse uber die gesunde Schulung der Singstimme und den Aufbau von Stimm-Korper-und Atembalance. Durch den Verlust der Sprechstimme nach der Scheidung aufgestort, fand die Autorin ihre wahre, authentische Stimme und dazu ihren Koloratursopran" durch Gesang, nachdem viele Therapieversuche erfolglos waren. Aus dem Hobby Singen wurde die Leidenschaft fur Oper und die Begeisterung fur das Idol, Maria Callas. Dieses Handbuch ist das dritte Werk der Autorin uber Gesang. Sie zeichnet darin die Entwicklung der professionellen Opernstimme an historischen Beispielen nach. Ein Uberblick uber die Geschichte des Belcanto ab 1600 in den italienischen Singschulen und bei den Kastraten in der papstlichen Kapelle zeichnet die Geschichte der Singkultur nach. Biographische Highlights aus den Leben weltberuhmter Sanger und Sangerinnen machen das Buch zu einer spannenden Lekture mit wissenswerten Details uber beruhmte Stimmen sowie erfolgreiche Gesanglehrer und Stimmtrainer. Dabei wird mit vielen Missverstandnissen und Mythen uber die Opernstimme und die Stimmfunktion anhand von Beispielen aus dem Sanger- und Opernalltag grundlich aufgeraumt. Im praktischen Teil nimmt die Autorin den Leser an der Hand und zeigt ihm anhand von Fotos auf unterhaltsa-me Weise, wie man Korper, Stimme und Atem fur den grossen erfolgreichen Auftritt in die Balance bringt. Anatomie der Stimme, Physiologie des Muskelapparates sowie physikalische Akustik werden anschaulich erklart. Der historische Abriss uber die Gesangspadagogik von damals bis heute wurdigt geniale Stimmpadagogen und Gesanglehrerinnen und rundet das Bild bis hin zur funktionalen Stimmbildung heute ab. Das Literaturverzeichnis verweist auf eine Auswahl weiterfuhrender Literatur. Alles in Allem ist das Handbuch fur Belcanto beileibe-keine trockene Wissenschaft, sondern ein lebendiger Bericht uber 4 Jahrhunderte gelebter Sing-kunst, der jedem Sanger dazu dient, die eigenen schlummernden Talente in die Tat umzusetzen. Aus der Praxis fur die Praxis ist das Motto der Musikwissenschaftlerin Dr. Karin Wettig
