  2. 1. The Voice Source in Speech Communication - Production and Perception Experiments Involving Inverse Filtering and Synthesis

    Author : Christer Gobl; KTH; []
    Keywords : Voice source dynamics; glottal source parameters; source-filter interaction; voice quality; phonation; perception; affect; emotion; mood; attitude; paralinguistic; inverse filtering; knowledge-based; formant synthesis; LF model; fundamental frequency;

    Abstract : This thesis explores, through a number of production andperception studies, the nature of the voice source signal andhow it varies in spoken communication. Research is alsopresented that deals with the techniques and methodologies foranalysing and synthesising the voice source. READ MORE

  5. 3. Why so different? - Aspects of voice characteristics in operatic and musical theatre singing : Aspects of voice characteristics in operatic and musical theatre singing

    Author : Eva Björkner; Anders Askenfelt; Ronald C. Scherer; KTH; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; operatic singing; musical theatre singing; voice source; subglottal pressure; flow glottogram; inverse filtering; formant frequencies; amplitude quotient AQ ; Music; Musikvetenskap;

    Abstract : This thesis addresses aspects of voice characteristics in operatic and musical theatre singing. The common aim of the studies was to identify respiratory, phonatory and resonatory characteristics accounting for salient voice timbre differences between singing styles. READ MORE

  6. 4. From Air to Aria. Relevance of Respiratory Behaviour to Voice Function in Classical Western Vocal Art

    Author : Monica Thomasson; KTH; []
    Keywords : Abdominal wall; breathing; consistency; inhalation; lung volume; respiratory behaviour; phonation; rib cage; singers; singing; subglottal pressure; tracheal pull; vertical laryngeal position; voice source.;

    Abstract : While previous studies of opera singers’respiratorybehaviour have focused on kinematic or dynamic aspects mainly,this thesis attempts to adopt a broader perspective. Not onlylung volumes, rib cage and abdominal wall kinematics areconsidered, but also the effects of lung volumes and respiratorybehaviour on phonation characteristics. READ MORE
