Sovtraining voice and sovtes: Physiology, Singing and Speech Therapy

What drives a physician, a speech therapist, and a singing teacher to collaborate on a book dedicated to semi-occluded vocal tract exercises?

There has long been significant interest from both the scientific and artistic communities in the topic of what are known internationally as Semi Occluded Vocal Tract Exercises (SOVTEs).

Such exercises are recognized worldwide for facilitating the attainment of an intuitive and rapid balance of the forces involved in phonation, and have proved particularly effective in vocal warm-ups for both speaking and singing. The insight that prompted the authors to combine their respective expertise and “take a step forward” was the perception that semi-occlusions were not merely useful exercises for vocal warm-up, but also potential allies in the study of singing and in speech therapy.

As the reader journeys through scientific assumptions and physiology, applications in singing and speech therapy, this book will serve as a guide toward a deeper understanding of semioccluded vocal tract exercises. It will provide numerous practical insights and application protocols for experimenting with and integrating SOVTEs into one’s professional voice practice.
