Summary | "The Psychology of Singing" by David C. Taylor is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. This work seeks to bridge the gap between theoretical understanding and practical instruction in voice culture by analyzing and critiquing existing methods of vocal training through a psychological and scientific lens. The book examines the mechanics of tone production, the physiological aspects of the voice, and the psychological elements involved in effective vocal training. At the start of the book, the author introduces the complexities surrounding the science of voice culture, lamenting the disconnect between established theory and actual teaching practices. He argues that while the anatomy and mechanics of the voice are well understood, the psychological aspects crucial for effective vocal management are often overlooked. Taylor emphasizes the necessity for a comprehensive understanding of voice training that includes both empirical observation—through attentive listening to singers—and adherence to psychological principles, rather than solely mechanical methods. The opening chapters set the stage for a critical examination of popular vocal methodologies and propose a new direction grounded in imitation and psychological insight.
