Review:
v03.n323 [in reference to a question about what bel canto is:] Please see if you can get a copy of this book: BEL CANTO: The Teaching of the Classical Italian Song-Schools, Its Decline and Restoration by Lucie Manen It is published by Oxford University Press in the UK. The U.S. ISBN # is 0-19-317109-0 (Paper). I do not know the UK #. I would try to contact them directly. Ms. Manen, I believe, is affiliated with the music departments at both the Universities of London and Cologne. She is hailed as an expert in the true technique of Bel Canto (which everyone now claims to teach, but as we know, have no idea what they are talking about!). It is a short book, but incredibly interesting. It includes her own discussion of the technique, in very precise technical terms, with pictures, as well as a historical overview of the pedagogical history.
