Please join us for our Fall Symposium: "Practical Vocal Acoustics with Kenneth Bozeman" at Whittier College on Sunday, November 17th.

Ken Bozeman is the author of Practical Vocal Acoustics and is Professor Emeritus at Lawrence University. He has received the Van Lawrence Fellowship from the Voice Foundation and is a member of the American Academy of Teachers of Singing.

Ken Bozeman will present a lecture on his research on vocal acoustics and vocal pedagogy. Additionally, he will lead two masterclasses, students and teachers, where he will demonstrate how these concepts can be applied within the voice studio. Our symposium will bridge the gap between the pedagogy and research communities to showcase how students and teachers can mutually benefit from implementing the concepts of vocal acoustics. We hope to see you there!
