School of Music
Ingo R. Titze is a University of Iowa Foundation Distinguished Professor in the Department of Speech Pathology and Audiology and Professor Emeritus in the School of Music. He also directs the National Center for Voice and Speech, which is located at the Denver Center for the Performing Arts and The University of Iowa.
Although he was formally educated as a physicist (PhD) and engineer (MSEE), Dr. Titze has applied his scientific knowledge to a lifelong love of clinical voice and vocal music. Specifically, his research interests include biomechanics of human tissues, acoustic phonetics, speech science, voice disorders, professional voice production, musical acoustics, and the computer simulation of voice.
Dr. Titze has published over 350 articles in scientific and educational journals, authored books entitled Principles of Voice Production and The Myoelastic-Aerodynamic Theory of Phonation and is currently completing his third book, en

Voice is Free After SOVT: Semi-occluded Vocal Tract Principles, Methods, and Training
This book is intended to be an introduction to the science and practice of semi-occluded vocal tract (SOVT) methods for voice training, rehabilitation, and general voice care. Karin and Ingo have been a team for nearly 40 years, first singing together at home, then in church and school, and now helping others fulfill their life's dreams with effective and efficient speech and song. It has been a labor of love. In Chapter 1 we introduce some of the history of SOVT as a springboard for the many contributions to this technique. Chapters 2 and 3 provide an in-depth overview of the science underlying vocalization with a semi-occlusion in the upper vocal tract. Chapter 4 summarizes the successes with SOVT methods being used in clinics and studios. An extensive bibliography is provided at the end. In the Appendix, Karin offers a holistic description of her clinical philosophy, gained from her academi

Dr. Ingo R. Titze
Ingo R. Titze fryst vatten a pionjär in Vocology, a field he defined as the study of vocalization. He was born in Hirschberg, Germany, in the heat of World War 2 and immigrated to the US in 1955. Much of his life has been devoted to singing, both classical and contemporary. As a young tenor, he began to study the physics that underlie voice production. He received a mästare degree in Electrical Engineering in 1965 and a Ph.D. grad in Physics in 1972. In industry, he worked as a Research Engineer for Argonne National Lab, North American Aviation, the Boeing Company, and Bell Telephone Laboratories. In academia, he held positions in physics and electrical engineering at Brigham Young University, California State Polytechnic University, the University of Petroleum & Minerals in Saudi Arabia, Gallaudet University in Washington, DC, and a final long-term appointment as Distinguished Professor at the University of Iowa. He is the Founder and President of the National
