Maria Weiss, a certified Alexander teacher and singer herself, gives background knowledge about the Alexander Technique, compares the Alexander Technique with various body-mind techniques and uses sources from well-known vocal teachers such as Pietro Francesco Tosi, Manuel Garcia, Kristin Linklater, and Olga Averino, to name just a few, to show that the principles of F. M. Alexander’s teachings can be discovered in vocal writings. The author also discusses topics related to singing such as ‘posture’, breathing, practicing and performing from the view of F. M. Alexander, various Alexander teachers, body-mind techniques, vocal teachers and singers.
