who never sing." These words will stir the emotions
of all who hear them, and the lovely, flowing music
really lets them shine!

Finding Ophelia's
Voice, Opening
Ophelia's Heart
Nurturing the
Adolescent Female Voice
Lynne Gackle. Lynne Gackle,
Associate Professor of Ensembles
and Assistant Choral Director at
Baylor University, has long been
an advocate for the power of
singing as a catalyst for positive
change and self-actualization in
adolescent girls. Her landmark
text is a synthesis of these ideas,
reflecting her unmatched expertise
on the working of the female voice
and a lifetime of experience and
research. Serving to enlighten and
encourage teachers and choral
directors of these students, Finding
Ophelia's Voice, Opening Ophelia's
Heart addresses the symptoms of
vocal change in the female voice,
along with physiological factors that
affect it. Appropriate choral literature,
recordings, and other educational
materials are also presented. The
included DVD, which may be used
as a teaching tool in the classroom,
provides demonstrations of the
phases of vocal maturation, voice
classification, vocal techniques, and
other pedagogical strategies, all with
the help of an all-girl choir (ages 12-
16) under the direction of Dr. Gackle.
