The Acoustic Science Behind Singing and the Mechanics of the Throat

Speaker: Dana Zenobi

The talk will cover the acoustical elements of singing and the anatomy of the throat. Science has found ways to improve singing just as it has athletic performance. The talk will show how art and science intersect in vocal performance.

She has earned national recognition as an interpreter of Art Song by women and has garnered success in operatic roles ranging from Mozart heroines Konstanze and Donna Elvira to Verdi’s Violetta Valéry. Currently based in Indianapolis, IN, she is an active recitalist, presenter, and concert soloist. She is on the faculty at Butler University, where she teaches Voice Pedagogy, Diction, Opera Literature, and Art Song Literature.
