Thank you Randy. I will read that when the time is available. However,
the things you mention are clearly aspects of speech pathology not
particularly directed to normal problems to do with teaching singing.
I consider that your inclusion of some of this material has nothing to
do with the average student but is essential to the smaller group of
individuals with problems that need the intervention of an Ear Nose
and Throat Specialist which I assume is your calling. ?
Reg.
