Questions

Which "physics" is the human voice subject to? How are perceived sound qualities and identities interrelated with physical properties? What do these interrelations tell us about voice, speech, and singing?

Interest

Relationship between fundamental perceptual features of the voice in speech and singing and their observable physical characteristics.

Motivation

Lack of a phenomenological description documenting the possible extent of variation in vocal utterances.

Actual Focus

Characteristics of voice, characteristics of vowels.
Comparison of trained stage voices with untrained voices.
Investigation of the parallelism between perception and acoustic characteristics.
