Abstract | The purpose of this study is to examine selected perceptual measurements of the effects of four specified singer gestures on male collegiate singers' (N = 27) performance on the [u] vowel. Two of these singer gestures involved inactive stationary gestures and two other gestures involved active gestures. In addition to inactive and active gestures, using both hands and only one hand was imbedded in the four gestures. Finally, singers were audio recorded using their most preferred gesture. After collectively singing the [u] vowel with each gesture, each male singer individually rated each gesture on a 1-10 Likert scale according to quality of resonance. The choir was audio recorded during each motion, and expert listeners (N = 12) rated the randomized audio files on quality of resonance. The results indicated that singers and expert listeners both rated the active two-handed gesture as eliciting the most resonant sound and the stationary one-handed gesture as eliciting the least resonant sound. Expert listeners rated the recording as most resonant when singers chose individually preferred gestures. (As Provided). |
