Experienced vocal coaches, who knowintuitively what should be done to improve quality ofvoice and increase its range and power will seedirectly which of the intrapharyngeal muscles shouldbe trained (and to what extent) in order to reach thedesired result.

Specialists in phonetics and phoniatrics,vocology and speech/singing acoustics will find thebook novel, having both immediate and far-reachingimplications.
