Abstract
Abstract: Debra Greschner reviews three recent publications. In French Lyric Diction: A Singer’s Guide (New York: Oxford University Press, 2023), diction instructor Jason Nedecky explains the rules and nuances of French lyric diction. Rearranged: An Opera Singer’s Facial Cancer and Life Transposed by Kathleen Watt (New York: Heliotope Books, 2023) is a compelling memoir of a classical singer’s battle with bone cancer. Vocal Technique: A Guide to Classical and Contemporary Styles for Conductors, Teachers, and Singers 2nd Edition by Julia Davids and Stephen LaTour (Grove, IL: Waveland Press, 2021) is substantively expanded upon the first edition that appeared in 2012. The volume now includes information on topics such as styles beyond the classical genre, electronic amplification, and additional vocal exercises.
