Abstract Teachers of singing will therefore find this study useful as an orientation in the hitherto tangled areas of vocal pedagogy and vocal science; as a means of comparing their own teaching methods with the prevalent methodologies in the profession; as a source of useful information on certain unfamiliar aspects of vocal theory and practice; as a direction finder in selecting suitable topics of research where investigations are now most needed; and as a stimulus and incentive for the freer expression and exchange of ideas along the lines suggested in this treatise. This study should also prove useful as a teacher-training text for newcomers in the vocal teaching profession.
