Longtime #VocalFam Dr. Ian Howell of the Embodied Music Lab joins the pod for the first appearance in some time to tell us about his journey through a new (really old?) lens of voice acoustics. Both Dr. P and Dr. Howell come from a background of the traditional source-filter theory (solid state theory) of voice production, but for the past many months Ian has begun speaking publicly about a reframing of how the voice pedagogy community should consider approaching voice acoustics, through the transient theory of voice production. If you've encountered any of his posts surrounding transient theory, now is your chance to hear him discuss some of the ideas out loud.

Ian Howell: In a Transient State of Mind

Yvonne Redman

The saga continues with Part 4! Sarah and Dr. P are joined by #VocalFam Ian Howell and Yvonne Redman to discuss the performing artist turned voice teacher. Both of these incredible colleagues had significant performing careers and have also both become important voices in the voice pedagogy and teaching community. We get to hear about their path of transitioning from performing to teaching, what challenges or surprises they faced, and their walk through continuing education. We touch on communicating with colleagues and teaching master classes. Another episode in our NOT TO BE MISSED spring series!

Now You're a Voice Teacher Part 4: Ian Howell and Yvonne Redman

Dr. Ian Howell is a member of the voice faculty of the New England Conservatory of Music, where he also directs the graduate voice pedagogy program and coaches students in Baroque voice repertory. Dr. Howell's work explores the special psychoacoustics of the singing voice, with an eye toward practical applications for singers and voice teachers. Human senses interpret reality according to a dependable set of rules. These same senses also perceive greater detail once we internalize more precise labels and conceptual models. Dr. Howell’s work produces new aural/visual models that better characterise the perceptual qualities of sung vowels and voice registration. He unpacks and identifies the perceptually coherent components of a vowel, showing how absolute, objective labels apply to the relative scale of tonal brightness. Dr. Howell has presented original research at the Pan American Vocology Association's Symposium (2015, 2016), The National Association of Teachers of Singing's National Convention (2016), Harvard's ArtTechPsyche III (2017), and The Society for Music Perception and Cognition (upcoming summer of 2017). He is a guest faculty member at the Vocal Pedagogy Professional Workshop at the Boston Conservatory at Berklee (2017), and Kenneth Bozeman's Acoustic Vocal Pedagogy Seminar (2017). As a classical countertenor, Ian Howell has sung on most major international concert stages as both a soloist and a member of the Grammy Award winning ensemble Chanticleer. He appears on recordings on the Warner Brothers, Rhino, Gothic, Yale, American Bach Soloists, and Naxos record labels and has published multiple live concert performances on YouTube. Ian Howell hold the Doctor of Musical Arts degree from NEC, the Master of Music degree from Yale University, and the Bachelor of Music degree from Capital University.
