Rezensionen

"An original member of the Roy Hart Theatre Company, Margaret Pikes's autobiographical experience as a woman emerging from this historical, cultural and artistic context exposes the development of Wolfsohn's seminal praxis through her work. Her reflective writing opens up and questions the dominant ideologies that she suggests 'pervaded and steered the philosophy underpinning the Roy Hart Theatre's approach to voice training. [...] A cultural craft, Owning Our Voices: Vocal Discovery in the Wolfsohn-Hart Tradition (2021) from Pikes and Campbell opens important questions about western approaches to contemporary voice and speech training. [...] Pikes's methodology and approach to voice training and performance furthers the possibility of not only discovering the practice of 'freeing the voice' but rather, a way of training that perhaps allows the individual to discover and 'own' their individual voice and give it expression." - Amy Rome, Journal of Interdisciplinary Voice Studies
