    remember citing in my head a particularly intriguing topic Anne Karpf brought up briefly within the first chapters of her book. She said, “Voice and speech are treated as almost identical, and speech as little more than spoken language… We raid speech for its semantic meaning, and then discard the voice like leftovers, detritus.” (Karpf, Anne.

    1. How does the speaking voice influence the singing voice? I cannot tell you the number of times that I have had vocal teachers tell me that they cannot believe how high I can sing after hearing my speaking voice.

    The distinctive voices, characteristic in any text/s, can be deconstructed to develop an understanding which may validate, challenge or disprove society’s values and/or beliefs within a given context.
