  • Without details on how this technique is learned and used, "laryngeal method" remains just a phrase with no real meaning. Basic vocal technique requires a relaxed throat and this keeps the larynx low.

  • One of the curious things about Corelli is that he could walk away from his huge career and adulation from fans while his voice was still excellent and he could still sing all his notes and all his roles. I think these convesations with Zucker showe that Corelli after his retirement still had some interest in connecting with his public.

  • Zucker has the most annoying voice I've ever heard

  • Mr. Zucker made his mark in opera, for certain. But I question his authority on technique based simply on his opinion of the most nuanced singer for all time- Caruso. He opines that he was a single dimensional singer without any artistic nuance. That's when I began to question Mr. Zucker's opinions.

  • Germany my a**, the man said Denmark! 

  • Risonanza e consonanza dopo si trovano "in maschera", come si suol dire (ognuno poi sente "l'appoggio in maschera" in un punto diverso, è una cosa personalissima).

    Però il suono si produce, fisicamente, nella laringe. Nella cosiddetta maschera sonora facciale non vi è alcuna produzione sonora.

    La maschera è solo una sensazione stante ad indicare che la respirazione è corretta, il palato molle è alto, il suono è ben sostenuto dal diaframma.

  • L'aria passa nella laringe e fa risuonare le corde vocali, che si trovano nella laringe. Dove vuoi farla passa l'aria, nell'ano?

    Certo che passa per la laringe. Tutt'al più è importante che la laringe sia rilassata, in modo che il flusso d'aria sia libero e ci sia piena produzione sonora senza sbuffi d'aria tra le corde (forse e questo che volevi intendere?) e senza tensioni atte a modificare il pitch sonoro tramite la tensione della laringe anziché tramite la colonna d'aria.
