Review
This is a wonderful, important book for those of us fortunate to have known Meribeth, and it is truly foundational for any lover of the human voice—a seminal contribution to vocal pedagogy. Indeed, it is a book for the human journey with much wisdom. The reflections of the contributors are fresh and illuminating. -- Susan Yarnall Monks, president, European Voice Teachers Association
A perfect, sincere, and respectful reflection of the CoreSinging approach. The case studies confirm just how important this work is. Meribeth Dayme and her wisdom are immortalized in this book—like her, it’s a game changer. -- Lisa Perks, teacher, coach, and creator of Right to Sing
This should be required reading for every budding voice teacher or teacher who is burnt out and needs a shot of renewal, and the “Basic Principles of CoreSinging” should be framed and put on every teacher and student’s wall. -- Mark Crayton, professor of voice, Roosevelt University
Meribeth Dayme’s pioneering legacy is now distilled in this volume to pass on to future generations. All the best instincts and concepts about how to successfully give confidence to and inspire students are laid out with clarity. -- David Playfair, professor of voice, Brandon University
The Essentials of CoreSinging: A Joyful Approach to Singing and Voice Pedagogy presents an innovative outlook by one of the most important voice pedagogues in modern times. CoreSinging, developed by Meribeth Dayme, offers a universal approach applicable and complementary to any style, system, or level of singing—the ultimate result transforms fear into joy and ease. For the first time, Cynthia Vaughn and Matthew Hoch have compiled and edited this culminating work of Meribeth Dayme.
CoreSinging is formed on five elements present in all stages of singing from beginner to professional: energy, awareness, imagination, practice, and performance. Concepts of energy—physical, metaphysical, mental, emotional, psychological, psychic, and spiritual—help singers transform themselves, their sound, and performance into an experience of healing. Contributors offer case studies and targeted strategies for further implementation and select writings of Dayme are also included.
