Reviews
This video is accessible to singers, voice teachers, or students with an interest in voice therapy. The first 8 minutes are highly relevant in terms of gaining an understanding of the impact of singing and vocal load, and the resulting injury. The last two minutes focus on breathing and smelling mechanics. The video quality isn’t perfectly clear, but the viewer still gets a good sense of the vocal cords at work.
