Voice Lab:

reflections for a possible pedagogy of vocal experimentation

Authors

Abstract

The article reflects on the artistic pedagogical procedures experienced in conducting the Vocal Experimentation Laboratory (Lab Voz), which was part of the actions of the master's degree, together with the PPG Artes da Unesp. The research deals with vocal performativity as a stimulating gesture in the creation of the scene, in the composition of the character, and in dealing with the text beyond words. Our starting point is the understanding of the voice in an integrated perspective, that is, voice as a body; a research field on the sound materiality of the voice and its multiple dimensions (corporeal, emotional, political). It is a creative approach to the voice, as a driver for the scene and as a generator of possible dramaturgies and poetics. The work seeks to deepen the relationships between textuality, musicality and vocality in order to enhance the use of the voice in the performing arts.
