Coming up next on Voicebox: Holy Melisma!: A composer’s guide to the development and practice of ornamentation in singing

Saturday, July 23, 2011

Ornamentation has been a staple of vocal music for hundreds if not thousands of years. Join composer and writer Brian Rosen, soprano Julia Hathaway, and VoiceBox host Chloe Veltman for a discussion about the ways in which singers (and composers) adorn melodies – and the factors that separate memorable from forgettable embellishments.

Read Brian's companion blogpost on the theme of 'melismatic singing' here.

The program airs this Friday, August 29, from 10-11pm at 91.7 fm or www.kalw.org.

If you missed last week's show, it is available on demand via kalw's online music player throughout this week. Click
