I kursen behandlas olika aspekter av röstens funktion och användning. Samverkan mellan olika primärt laryngala anatomiska strukturer för att åstadkomma olika tonhöjder och rösttyper är ett centralt tema i kursen. Därutöver berörs frågor om hur olika rösttyper återspeglas i ljudsignalen och på vilket sätt den akustiska framställningen analyseras och tolkas. I samband med detta ingår praktiska laborVarious aspects of the function and use of the voice are central to the content of the course.
