Self-Accompanied Classical Singing : Reviving a Lost Art
Self-Accompanied Classical Singing: Reviving a Lost Art explores the phenomenon of classical singers accompanying themselves. The book charts the journey of self-accompanied singing through the history of classical music from the 14th century on, and presents extensive research involving over 100 classical singers today. It generates discussion about the practice of self-accompaniment in both the past and the present; fosters self-accompaniment as a revived professional practice in the classical sphere; and explores implications for music education, from the conservatoire to the school and private studio.
Written for a broad audience, Self-Accompanied Classical Singing will appeal to researchers, teachers and students of performance studies, music history, music education, and the sociology and psychology of music. It will also interest classical singers, voice teachers and concert promoters.
