Book excerpt: From the psychological to the practical, the serious challenges and issues that can affect a singer's performance are explored in this groundbreaking book. Author Lynn Eustis, herself a professional signer and voice instructor, argues that the daily psychological conflicts that make up a singer's world can have profound implications for both the singer and the teacher. The book is divided into two parts: The Inner World, which discusses all of the emotional and personal issues involved with singing, and The Outer World, which addresses questions of public perception and performance. The end of each chapter includes a section for further exploration that is filled with introspective exercises. This book is a valuable addition to the libraries of singers, conductors, and teachers of singing at all levels.
