Voice Anatomy and Brain Basics

Once upon a time

There was a singer who had been taught all their life that you are born with a good singing voice.

Then, along came a fairy godmother in workout gear who told them that singing is a sport and the brain is not a fixed entity.

“Holy cow!” said the singer, “You mean my brain can change? Does that mean the voice can change?”

“Yes,” said the fairy godmother. “You’ll need to learn about the nervous system and the pipe that sound comes out of. That’s your instrument.”
