Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now every parent, grandparent, or teacher can explain to a child the difference between appropriate and inappropriate touching in a way that young boys and girls can understand. As a child, there are constantly people trying to pick you up, hug you, or tickle you. Sometimes, though, children fall victims to people who try to touch them inappropriately. But how do you tell someone, most likely an adult, that you don’t want to be touched? Or, if it has already happened, how do you tell an adult you trust about what happened? You’re only a child, and they’re the adults. Why would they believe you? My Body Belongs to Me from My Head to My Toes is an educational tool to help instill confidence in children when it comes to their bodies. The narrative of the story is led by a girl named Clara, who encourages kids to say “no” if they are uncomfortable with physical contact. The narrator gives readers tips about what they can say or do to avoid unwanted physical contact, or how to tell the right people in the event it has already occurred. My Body Belongs to Me from My Head to My Toes is an invaluable resource that gives children a voice in uncomfortable situations.

Download or read book Your Body Your Voice written by Theodore Dimon, Jr and published by North Atlantic Books. This book was released on 2011-09-27 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this innovative book, Theodore Dimon, EdD, shows how each part of the vocal organ (breathing, larynx, throat, and so on) works as part of a larger musculoskeletal system that is often interfered with, and how identifying this larger system and understanding in a practical way how it works allows a person to train and improve the voice, whether speaking or singing. Traditional vocal training methods, says Dimon, cannot be effective without restoring the functioning of the musculature that supports the voice. Enhanced with over 50 detailed full-color illustrations, the book discusses the fallacy of traditional breathing exercises and explains that the key to efficient breathing lies in the expansive support of the trunk and rib cage. Investigating the elements needed to produce a strong supported tone, Dimon describes the importance of voice “placement,” or directing the sound to a part of the body in order to produce a fully rounded, resonant tone. He identifies harmful patterns of speech and singing, and offers helpful methods for reestablishing the natural function of the vocal mechanism. Individual chapters cover elements of the whispered “ah,” producing a pure sung tone, vocal registers, the suspensory muscles of the larynx, and more.

Download or read book The Singing Body written by Iris Goren and published by . This book was released on 2017-08-23 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Singing Body - A Vocalist's Companion is testimony to the fact that singing is a highly complicated act of coordination. Every single part of the body plays an important role in the act of singing, and those parts which don't function properly can hinder it. Being fully aware of one's physical functioning is an essential tool in intensifying the constructive role that the body plays. The work begins with posture, the necessary physical warm-up, widening the repertoire of movement, relaxing and strengthening muscles, breathing exercises, relaxation and the sense of balance-all of which enhance the singer's abilities. Thereafter, the book addresses topics such as movement and presence on the stage before an audience. Physical action during singing is, in essence, individual but Iris Goren's work is often conducted in a master-class, ensuring every singer gets individual attention as well as the opportunity to perform before the class.There are suggestions for diagnosing specific problems encountered by singers as they work on specific pieces. This is a highly-focused approach which works with each individual singer or performer in his/her own right. It also includes line drawings which give a very precise visual representation of the concepts and exercises proposed in the text, thus facilitating their use and understanding. There are also some specific innovations: the combination of body-work with the physical act of singing, which characterizes Goren's work with singers; and sections such as "Sensing and action according to body weight" and "Observation, listening and touch" provide diagnostic tools for understanding the problems of singers which occur during performance.The book is organized into chapters which introduce fundamental concepts, such as breathing, posture and assessment, each of which is subdivided into specific topics within the principle of the chapter. For example: Chapter 1, Posture and Stance, includes sections on grounding, physical warm-up, muscle tone, and more. Information and exercises come together to demonstrate the technique proposed and ensure fullest possible comprehension of the work.The Singing Body is distinctive in that it is not based on a particular theory of body-work (like Alexander, or Feldenkrais), but rather encompasses several decades of intensive experience of working with a multi-disciplinary approach. It takes the most important elements from a range of theories and techniques which have been found to be most relevant to this work with singers. Other writers have separated body-work from singing; but it is precisely by combining the two and working in this way that singers are helped to work correctly on the individual body and voice.

Download or read book Singing the Body Electric The Human Voice and Sound Technology written by Miriama Young and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-03 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Singing the Body Electric explores the relationship between the human voice and technology, offering startling insights into the ways in which technological mediation affects our understanding of the voice, and more generally, the human body. From the phonautograph to magnetic tape and now to digital sampling, Miriama Young visits particular musical and literary works that define a century-and-a-half of recorded sound. She discusses the way in which the human voice is captured, transformed or synthesised through technology. This includes the sampled voice, the mechanical voice, the technologically modified voice, the pliable voice of the digital era, and the phenomenon by which humans mimic the sounding traits of the machine. The book draws from key electro-vocal works spanning a range of genres - from Luciano Berio's Thema: Omaggio a Joyce to Radiohead, from Alvin Lucier's I Am Sitting in a Room, to Björk, and from Pierre Henry's Variations on a Door and a Sigh to Christian Marclay's Maria Callas. In essence, this book transcends time and musical style to reflect on the way in which the machine transforms our experience of the voice. The chapters are interpolated by conversations with five composers who work creatively with the voice and technology: Trevor Wishart, Katharine Norman, Paul Lansky, Eduardo Miranda and Bora Yoon. This book is an interdisciplinary enterprise that combines music aesthetics and musical analysis with literature and philosophy.
