ABSTRACT
This work seeks basically to characterize the teaching of voice in Brazil and to set standards for it, starting with the confirmation that in our country little has been done for educating the singer who wishes to devote him/herself to the teaching of voice.
As a singer´s instrument is the possesser of particular characteristics which make up his/her own body, his/her apprenticeship covers a complexity of aspects. The importance of special care in the training of professionals in the area of lyric singing must be then followed.
Another argument which justifies our research is that, with ample proofs shown, the great majority of singers dedicate themselves in parallel also to other activities, giving lessons as a professional option with many of them inadequately prepared.
It can be seen then that it is necessary to question the education of the professional in this country and what the universities offer as a contribution to the teaching preparation of those students who want to teach voice.
In the first chapter, we have prepared a revised bibliography of teaching materials for voice published in Brazil since the beginning of the century, trying to outline the different approaches and emphases in the development of voice teaching here through literature found on the subject. In the second chapter, na investigation is made of the possibilities for work available to the lyric singer in this country, based on the results of recent research in the area. In the third chapter, an analysis of the course curricula for the Bachelor of Voice degree is done, pointing out how many offer the option of teaching preparation for the student who wishes to teach voice. Starting from the particularities of this data, several teaching proposals are offered for curricula which are concerned with the teaching of voice.
