It presents anatomical, physiological, and neurological considerations, as well as covers critical issues related to patient history, laryngeal function, the physical examination, and historical perspectives of vocal pedagogy. The first part of the book introduces basic concepts of voice science, assessment, and training. It focuses on the science behind the common problems that afflict voice users and enables understanding of the medical approach to problem analysis. The second part of the book contains additional information on the specific health and performance conditions that affect the voice and their assessment and treatment. It considers the medical and nonmedical issues affecting the human voice, including diagnosis and treatment of voice problems, the effects of physical injury, posture, pollutants and irritants, psychological effects, voice therapy, medication, and more.

The power of sound through the voice is one of the most effective tools readily available to each of us for healing, empowerment and enlightenment - and for spreading vibrations of peace, divine love and joy. In Vocal Medicine Kathleen Karlsen shares engaging stories of her journey with mantras, chanting, and kirtan. She illumines the way for us to gain a foundational understanding of the art and science behind these practices. Includes how mantras can be formulas for psychological and emotional freedom, the role of chanting in supporting physical health, the power of kirtan, and illustrations for visual meditation. Features original compositions with lyrics and scores of unique new chants inspired by both eastern and western traditions.

Every discipline tends to develop its own particular language and ways of communicating. This is true also about the various disciplines that talk about and describe the human voice - particularly as it relates to singing. The aim of this book is to bridge any gaps in communication, foster better understanding of the singing voice and encourage collaboration between those involved in performance, teaching, therapy and medicine. Because there is increasing interest in research in all these disciplines, creating a "common ground" for communication about the singing voice is essential for mutual understanding and for effective prevention and treatment of disorders in singers. One object for the artistic and scientific professions is to understand each other better by finding a vocabulary and terminology which they can share and use effectively. Difficulty in communication often arises when a singer or teacher of singing attempts to describe something sensory in nature by use of imagery and sign-language to non-singers, including the health and medical profes sions; and, in the same way, the use of obscure and sometimes frightening terminology by those in the medical sciences when offering explanations to singers. Teaching and simple language was and is needed from both sides. A number of advances are helping to create rapid change in bridging gaps in communication and in adding new information: 1. The formation of Associations for Performing Arts Medicine on a na tional and international scale are bringing new awareness to those who work with singers and other artists.

Within the body lie all the elements (anatomy, physiology and the connection between the mind and body) which are needed to produce sound. Every instrument has a frame. The unique thing about the human vocal instrument is that the body skeleton is the frame. The purpose of this book is to help the voice professional understand this instrument and know how to take care of it. This book defines common problems and discusses how to fix these problems based on the specialization of the voice professional.

Vocal fold scar remains one of the most demanding and, in some ways, frustrating challenges of laryngology and voice therapy. Treatments for this complex condition are inconsistent and often produce suboptimal results. Yet, while hopes for full recovery remain slim, surgical methods and improving technologies, along with improved therapy techniques, have combined to yield better and better outcomes; and further advances are on the horizon. In this new book, Moore, Sataloff, and Hawshaw have collaborated with world leaders in laryngology and speech-language pathology to compile the latest information on the pathophysiology of vocal fold scar, treatments, procedures and, importantly, look at the promising directions in research. The authors introduce the various causes and sequelae of scar, examine anatomy and pathophysiology, and take the reader through diagnostic procedures. Thereafter, they review preoperative therapy options and providing practical guidance on surgical methods including medialization, techniques for freeing the epithelium, management of sulcus, grafting, and the use of lasers. The book discusses tissue engineering and newer treatment options, including epidermal growth factor (EGF) and transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF- 1). The book summarizes the state of the art in diagnosis and treatment of vocal fold scar and should be valuable for any clinician who cares for the patient with this vexing problem."

During the past decades, "Dynamics of the singing voice" has successfully been established as a reference text for teachers of singing, singers, choral conductors and organists, speech and voice therapists, laryngologists and other health professionals, psychologists and those in linguistics. It discusses the physiological, psychological, musical and emotional aspects of the voice, particularly as they relate to singing but also to speaking. The book provides a greater understanding of how the voice works and the many factors involved in singing as well as an objective discussion of singing without reference to specific techniques. In this fifth edition, the author has now updated and rearranged the content. Furthermore she has added a new chapter on vocal pedagogic aspects in order to meet the requirements of the art of singing of the 21st century. Thus this new book provides the reader with the established concepts in combination with the latest knowledge about modern approaches to the singing voice.
