Singing Techniques
Tue, 2 Mar 2004, 11:41 pmI am in my final year of my BA Hons Applied Performing Arts and for my dissertation I am focusing on singing techniques in musical theatre.
My Dissertation title/question is: Is Classical singing technique relevant for the modern day actor in musical theatre training?
I would like to hear people's view on this and any methods that they have found usefull in approaching singing for the theatre.
Thanks

If you look on the net and type in Estill you will get a web site called EVTS and there is a page for Australia. I found the book really helpful and this is what I'm basing my dissertation on. You could also try doing a part time course in singing.
Hope that helps , cheers
