The 海角直播\u2019s Department of Theatre recently was accredited as just the third educational affiliate of Estill Voice International, a study and training program that develops vocal skills.<\/p>\n
Educational affiliates have at least two faculty members who are certified as course instructors. At UCF, professor Steven R. Chicurel is a certified course instructor and assistant professor Tara Snyder is a certified master teacher.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The training program helps singers and speakers find a full range of expression in their voices, while promoting healthy vocal habits. The program was formalized in 1988 by Jo Estill, a classical opera singer who went on to research voice science.<\/p>\n
\u00a0\u201cStudents of Estill Voice Training Systems succeed because they learn about identifying problems in singing and speaking and then come up with efficient and permanent \u2018fixes,\u2019\u201d Chicurel said. \u201cEstill Voice Training provides a unique delivery system at the university level.\u00a0Unlike traditional voice programs in music and theatre, where weekly private lessons are the norm from the first semester onward, students at UCF take the first two semesters of voice as a class.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
