Summary "Caruso and Tetrazzini on the Art of Singing" by Luisa Tetrazzini and Enrico Caruso is a collaborative work focused on vocal technique and singing methodology written in the early 20th century. This book serves as a guide for aspiring singers or those interested in the art of singing, discussing fundamental principles of voice production and breathing. The authors, both renowned operatic performers, share their experiences and insights into the Italian Method of Singing, advocating for a natural and expressive approach rather than a rigid, mechanical technique. In this comprehensive volume, Tetrazzini and Caruso explore various aspects of vocal performance, from breath control and tone production to diction and physical presence on stage. Tetrazzini emphasizes the importance of proper breathing techniques, the use of diaphragm support, and cultivating a relaxed throat for effortless singing. Caruso complements this by discussing the personal journey of his development as a tenor, underlining the necessity of good diction, emotional expression, and the continuous practice required to maintain vocal health. Their aim is to demystify the art of singing, presenting readers with practical advice while fostering a deep appreciation for the emotional and technical intricacies of performance.
