dc.description.abstractThe purpose of this study is to propose a historically guided approach to timbre, volume, vibrato, and pitch in the performance of choral repertoire. This is accomplished in part by documenting primary sources that suggest ideals of vocal production in the High Renaissance, Baroque, Classical, Romantic, and Contemporary eras. Additionally, warm-ups, conceived and created with performance repertoire in mind, are presented as models for an efficient means of teaching historically guided vocalism to choirs.en_US
