Long description:

Voice and Identity draws from the knowledge and expertise of leading figures to explore the evolving nature of voice training in the performing arts. The authors in this international collection look through both practical and theoretical lenses as they connect voice studies to equity, diversity, inclusion, and belonging, and to gender and gender diversity.


The book offers chapters that focus on practical tools and tips for voice teachers, and the text also includes chapters that give rich social, cultural, and theoretical discussions that are both academic and accessible, with a particular focus on gender diverse, gender non-binary, transgender, and inclusionary voice research.


Offering interdisciplinary insights from voice practitioners and scholars from the disciplines of actor training, singing, public speaking, voice science, communication, philosophy, women?s studies, Indigenous studies, gender studies, and sociology, this book will be a key resource for practitioners and researchers engaged in these fields. The chapters in this book were originally published in the Voice and Speech Review journal.
