      by Gordon Myers and Philip W. Smith

      Learn vocal pedagogy a la Gordon Myers’ latest approach to THE ART OF BELLY CANTO: Saying it with pictures! This volume contains 86 pages and 39 hilarious photographs of Gordon Myers, taken by Philip W. Smith, with appropriate commentary by Gordon Myers. The volume is much more than just another monument to the art and science of vocal pedagogy. In the Prologue to this book, Dr. Myers states, “Some say that a picture is worth a thousand words, and because I’m not sure I know how to spell a thousand words, I have decided to use pictures to demonstrate my skills as a teacher of singing.” And so he has!

      Leyerle Publications interrupts its tradition of excellence with the announcement of this radical little text...the revolutionary impact of Myer’s approach to the subject of singing deserves immediate attention... Gordon Myers is to pictorial pedagogy what Peter Schickele is to manic musicology. He gives the lie to the execrable rumor that there is no humor among voice teachers...”
