Shame can interfere with singing studies or create problems with vocal technique. Iris Seesjärvi, a psychophysical voice teacher, soprano, and doctoral researcher now introduces her pioneering work on how shame affects the singing voice and examines the wide scope of situations that can trigger vocal shame. The data sources for this research included interviews and inquiries with 19 classical singers and quotations from a book about the world-renowned Finnish soprano Karita Mattila. Singers, like all musicians, have a tendency towards perfectionism. This desire can lead to anxiety, fear and shame following an imperfect performance.
