Publisher's Synopsis
The Lost Vocal Art And Its Restoration is a book written by William Warren Shaw and published in 1914. The book explores the history of vocal music and the techniques used by singers in the past. Shaw argues that the art of singing has been lost over time due to changes in musical tastes and the influence of modern technology. He believes that by studying the techniques of past singers, it is possible to restore the lost vocal art and bring it back to its former glory. The book includes detailed descriptions of vocal techniques, exercises for improving vocal skills, and examples of songs and arias from different periods in history. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in vocal music and the history of singing.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
