• Abstract:

  In this article we propose the development of a methodology for the teaching of singing, beginning with the integration of the cognitive processes, based in the creative interaction between teacher and student, which we are calling a holisitic pedagogical approach. In this proposal we consider the whole person, promoting an incremental development process that integrates the multiple aspects that make up the individual. We maintain that the recognition and development of one’s own voice, assuming one’s own vocal identity, is the point of departure that leads to true vocalism. From these ideas we outline a series of objectives and resources based in the interaction of the different aspects of body, voice and psychology, intending to transcend the perception of their fragmentation, with a view to contributing to the integrated development of technical and interpretative resources, and fostering a proactive attitude in student and teacher. Included in this article are the results of our investigation The Embodied Voice, in which we draw various conclusions in relation to the implementation of this methodology. Our proposition allows us to cultivate the development of the creativity inherent in the activity of all performers.
