Vibrating Column Of Air

The voice is both moving muscle and moving air.

The vocal muscles adjust the cords for the pitch, and there is a specific size of the glottal slit. The moving air passes through this glottal slit, vibrating in a pattern as determined by the slit. Thus, air is crowded together into a column of a certain diameter, height, and direction depending on the adjustment for the particular pitch.

Allen has been enjoying singing since he was a little kid. He officially studied voice at ECU and USC. However, he ran into some vocal trouble. The search for healing led him to the studio of Dr. Joel Ewing, and into the world of functional vocal mechanics. Allen has explored vocal truth, and thus highly recommends the writings of E-Herbert Caesari, Cornelius Reid, and William Vennard. He is blessed to invite and accompany folks on the journey towards vocal wellbeing. The adventure awaits!
