THE SCIENCE
OF SINGING
By AUGUST kINGssITH.

The time has long since passed
when serious and Intelligent students
OF the voice are satisfied with mere
exercise and blind imitation Of tone
and with dependence only on vogue
and figurative expressions of now and
where a tone should be placed" for
their vocal development As there
are laws in composition which the
painter must master, in balance and
stand, in harmonic structure which
the composer of music must know, so
must the builder of tone, whether 1t
be a mechanical instrument or the
human voice, know the laws that I'M
derlie the production OF tone. The
science of the art OF singing may be
learned in a study of the theory of
sound as related to the human voice.
Psychology of Singing.
The psychology of singing. by
which is meant the meaning behind
the tone and the manner of project
ing 1t, is a very important element,
but a singer with only his psycho-
logical instinct to rely on and with
out being a master OF the science of
tone is as bad on as the however
greatly inspired painter or poet
or sculptor would be without a true
knowledge of composition and form
and balance. Not so many great
singers would be compelled to
stop singing for a period of time and
go back to coaching if their singing
was based on scientific principles.
There are four physical elements
that students should master before
giving themselves up to unrestrained
inspiration, in other words, before
forgetting their technic." These are:
timbre, resonance, pitch. and volume
or control. In studying these ele-
ments thoroughly and applying the
knowledge gained to the singing tone
the student WILL learn to develop in
4 few months power and richness of
tone that 1t took years to develop
under the old, and even today often
used, mayhap unwittingIy, empirical
method Of teaching. In the days of
Rossini. teacher required a life
time to teach a chosen pupil his art
through imitation, but modern science
in singing has changed all this and
makes it possible to achieve the same
results in comparatively little time
and effort
The Washington times., 1918-09-05
Soul In Song.

Much is heard in these war times
about the benefits to the soldier Of
singing, and one has said that the
allies will "sing themselves to vic
tory" The psychology and science Of
this is that the expression OF the
soul in song does more than disci-
pline or any other agency to give the
soldier that buoyancy OF spirit which
is so necessary for his morale, and
the act of singing brings into vigor-
GUS action the muscles enveloping the
chest the seat OF emotion, thus max
ing the singer fully conscious OF his
psychic and nervous energies and
drawing him away from conscious
ness OF the dead weight of physical
flesh.
In this regard what has been found
good for the soldier is good for ev-
erybody, and, fortunately, this good
has been partly realized throughout
the country by the formation Of
community singing societies. These
singing societies will stimulate the
study Of vocal development; and as
the scientific development of the
voice presupposes and demands in its
development a healthy, vigorous,
deep-breathing body. people gener-
ally will come to change their old
fashioned ideas that singing and all
