Description

Denes Strinys international singing career brought him to the major opera houses of the world in leading roles. At the same time; he was evolving his vocal technique in a quest to find his full vocal potential. This book documents his struggles and successes with himself; teachers; coaches; and other singers. Striny; while maintaining his singing career; also had a full studio of singers studying with him in New York City.In this his first book; Striny confronts and explains the universal problem in singing today. This problem is at the center of an important dilemma in the world of opera today-namely; where have all the great operatic voices gone? Striny dissects the problem and offers the solution; which is a return to singing in the "Head Voice;" the only true operatic sound. For the past sixty years; the knowledge that there are thirty-two muscles; bones; ligaments; and sinewy masses of tissue located around the larynx led teachers and students to chase this anatomical knowledge in search of answers to vocal theories. However; they have not learned the basic fundamental truth-those who sing in the head voice are the only true operatic voices.The late Birgit Nilsson; international opera legend and long-time friend; mentor; and teacher to Striny; shares her insights with Striny and the reader throughout the book. Head First is a must for teachers; students; professional singers; and opera lovers who will gain valuable insight into the "voice of opera."
