Influence of vowels on note pitching in a cappella vocal quartet performance.

Unlabelled: This paper notes that accurate tuning in a cappella (unaccompanied) choral music is a two-step process requiring (1) making pitch shifts on individual notes to sing intervals in just intonation thereby providing beat-free tuning for the consonant musical intervals that underpin the underlying harmony and (2) tuning different vowels to account for any additional pitch changes that are made in the context of the intrinsic pitch relating to the specific vowel being produced. This paper explores the second of these in the context of a part-by-part vowel variation during a sustained chord sung by the other three parts by a quartet of professional singers.
Objective: This study aimed to investigate the relationship between the fundamental frequencies employed when singing different vowels on the same pitch for each member in turn of a professional soprano, alto, tenor, bass (SATB) a cappella vocal quartet in terms of the measured fundamental frequency during the production of a set of individual vowels within a four-part carrier phrase.

Assessing Acoustic Parameters in Early Music and Romantic Operatic Singing.
J Voice
March 2023
Department of Speech and Hearing Science, University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign Illinois.
Objective: Since the recent early music (EM) revival, a subset of singers have begun to specialize in a style of singing that is perceptually different from the more "mainstream" romantic operatic (RO) singing style. The aim of this study is to characterize EM with respect to RO singing in terms of its vibrato characteristics and the singer's formant cluster.
Study Design: This study presents a within-subject experimental design.
Impulse dispersion of aerosols during playing the recorder and evaluation of safety measures.

Introduction: Group musical activities using wind instruments have been restricted during the CoVID19 pandemic due to suspected higher risk of virus transmission. It was presumed that the aerosols exhaled through the tubes while playing would be ejected over larger distances and spread into the room due to jet stream effects. In particular, the soprano recorder is widely used as an instrument in school classes, for beginners of all age groups in their musical education, in the context of leisure activities and in professional concert performances.
