About this exposition

To be a good classical singer is not just about singing with a beautiful voice. Considering the theatrical aspect of singing, a good classical singer is also a good speaker. To reach the quality level of speech, classical singers normally learn some pronunciation of languages such as Italian, German and French. This curriculum is familiar with a form of “- Diction” course. Thanks to those courses, most singers become able to read Italian, German and French. However, reading and singing the text is a totally different issue. Especially, for Asian students who have less linguistically in common with European languages, making a good speech in singing is a challenging subject. Based on own experiences, this research is a guideline for students who have been struggling to improve their practical diction skill and might be helpful for teachers who have students from Korea to understand their linguistic backgrounds.
