Excerpt from Voice, Song, and Speech: Practical Guide for Singers and Speakers; From the Combined View of Vocal Surgeon and Voice Trainer

Each Of the Authors Of the following pages has already contributed something towards the store Of literature on the Human Voice. These contributions have had a large circulation and have so far been successful, but they have been necessarily one-sided and therefore incomplete; for while the surgeon was unable to touch on matters musical, the teacher found himself in a similar difficulty on many points of hygiene and health.

The one, after many years of experience, came to the conclusion that wrong production of voice or abuse of its function was the chief cause Of most Of the cases of vocal failure, and even Of throat disease, occurring to professional voice-users, which came under his notice.

The other had become equally convinced that the scarcity of fine voices in singers as well as in speakers, generally acknowledged to exist, was due, less to dearth Of material, than to faults in its cultivation and exercise.
