Oxford Academic Singing Utopia: Voice in Musical Theatre

Ben Macpherson | 2024 | ISBN: 0197557643 | English | 286 pages | PDF | 7 MB
Singing Utopia is a unique and ambitious work which asks us to listen differently to voice in musical theatre. Across fifteen case studies from Florodora to Hadestown, Ben Macpherson hears something utopian in the extraordinary, emotional, and situational directness of singing voices as they escape the confines of everyday life.
