Abstract
Associate editor Matthew Hoch revisits Walter C. Foster’s 1998 book Singing Redefined, reconsidering its arguments within a twenty-first century context. Hoch uses Foster’s compendium of historical writings on various aspects of voice pedagogy as a starting point for examining the challenging task of defining pedagogic terms and concepts. Hoch argues that published definitions are a product of their era and the endeavor of defining pedagogic concepts is a perpetually moving target that always involves the periodic redefining of terminology as new science emerges and society evolves, recontextualizing our knowledge of the singing voice. The author concludes by speculating on several emerging trends that may inform pedagogic discourse and expand our lexicon moving forward.
