Subject: Re: [Puptcrit] Voice Advice


I endorse wholeheartedly Kristin Linklater.  I hate to say this, but many of
my students got more out of the book than they did from me. (Speaking voice
for the Stage class)  I beat her on accents though (She really doesn't do
much with accents).

Richard B. Johnson, Husband, Father, Grandfather, Actor, Director,
Puppeteer, Playwright, Teacher,Writer, Thingmaker, Mormon, Person, Fool.  I
sometimes think that the last persona is the most important- and most
valuable.

You should purchase Kristen Linklater's book Finding the natual voice and
use the 
exercises therein to find your voice.  also i have found that it helps to
make up my 
own song.  not singing words so much, but singing notes and going up and
down 
my range and playing around with my voice.  i sing like this to my son every
night 
when i put him to bed, and in doing so i have found my voice and it grows
stronger 
every day.  then when you sing other people's songs or write your own for
that 
matter, you will be able to add your own flavour to it.
