Edward Foreman

Edward Foreman (1937-2018) was an operatic bass, scholar of singing technique, and teacher. He was founder and editor of the Pro Musica Press (Minneapolis, USA), which reprinted historical treatises in facsimile and transcription, and also translated them into English.[1] According to Richard Wistreich, these translations offer a uniquely comprehensive and valuable collection of Bel Canto pedagogy in English. He argues that "a growing number of influential singing teachers […] agree [with Foreman]", that there should be a revival of those old, healthy, singing practices. [2]

gollark: Oh, very, but only in a chroot-type thing, not baremetal.
gollark: Yes, that is one of the very specific phones.
gollark: So probably a chrootish thing.
gollark: You can't except on very specific phones.
gollark: Yes, it *shouldn't* be, but basically all the software for it runs over some """cloud""" backend and does way too much.
