Examination Committee Member Dean Gronemeier, DMA, JD. Examination Committee Member Joe Bynum, MFA. Graduate College Faculty Representative ii ABSTRACT This doctoral dissertation provides information on how to develop the young dramatic soprano, specifically through more concentrated focus on the breath. Proper breathing is considered the single most important skill a singer will learn, but its methodology continues to mystify multitudes of singers and voice teachers. Voice professionals often write treatises with a chapter or two devoted to breathing, whose explanations are extremely varied, complex or vague. Young dramatic sopranos, whose voices are unwieldy and take longer to develop are at a particular disadvantage for absorbing a solid vocal technique. First, a description, classification and brief history of the young dramatic soprano is discussed along with a retracing of breath methodologies relevant to the young dramatic soprano’s development.

Through careful scrutiny of historical performances by great singers of the past century, I attempt to show that attentive listening can be a vitally important component of a singer’s technical development. This approach is especially valuable within the context of a mentor/apprentice relationship, a centuries-old pedagogical tradition in opera that relies heavily on figurative language to capture the relationship between physical sensation and quality of sound. Using insights gleaned from conversations with my own teacher, the heldentenor Graham Sanders, I analyze selected YouTube clips to demonstrate the relevance of sensitive listening for developing smoothness of tone, maximum resonance, legato, and other related issues. ii TABLE OF CONTENTS Acknowledgements .................................................................................................................

Coats Committee Chair Director of School Dean of the Graduate School December 2018 COPYRIGHT BY John Charles White 2018 Published by the Graduate School ABSTRACT Many notable opera singers have been virtuosic tenors; Franco Corelli, Plácido Domingo, James King, José Carreras, Ramón Vinay, Jon Vickers, and Carlo Bergonzi. Besides being great tenors, each of these singers share the fact that they transitioned from baritone to tenor. Perhaps nothing is more destructive to the confidence of a singer than to have his vocal identity or voice type challenged.

I thank my teacher, Prof. Cuccaro, for teaching me with her unceasing love and passion. Her knowledge and method of Bel Canto singing is unparalleled to any other teachings I have encountered. I have learned more than I ever thought I could. My gratitude also goes to Prof. Hart, who provided innumerable insights into the study. Without her help, this document would have been simply impossible. I was lucky to have my singer colleagues who gladly helped me with this document through their interviews. They are not only some best singers I know, but the nicest people. I look for the continued success in their careers, which I have no doubt. The information they provided is priceless. The biggest blessing for me is my family, my amazing parents who support me in every possible way they can.
