Singing: The Human Connection
Author
Hemedinger, Marguerite Olivia
Abstract
Though music may not be a universal language, it is a facet that can help us understand each other across cultures, languages, and borders. This project explores the experiences in singing in different parts of the world, through programming diverse repertoire to present in a senior recital and through interviewing singers and voice teachers with different global perspectives. The recital portion of my project included pieces from around the world that centered around the theme of night, stars, and the moon. For my research, I did a case study not to analyze individual’s experiences as a representation of the whole, but rather as a point of comparison between individual experiences in different parts of the world. The study highlighted the connection that different individuals have with their voice as part of their identity as a human in the world.
