The singing/acting voice in the mature adult.
With years of training and performance, the mature vocal performer experiences less vocal changes with aging than does his/her age peer who is not a performer. We have considered, some physical problems that may adversely influence the voice of the older performer. With some awareness and effective management of these possible problems, the negative effects on the older performer's voice can be minimized.
