人聲是最自然的樂器，卻無法以肢體直接碰觸，造成聲樂教師們在教學上，必須運用和器樂不同的教學方式。本課程以西方美聲唱法(Bel Canto)為基礎，介紹人聲樂器的構造及運作，幾世紀以來聲樂教師們對呼吸法、正確的發聲方式、共鳴方式、聲區的劃分等理念，以及在聲樂教學上可能遇到的各種課題。本課程結合理論、觀察、及實作，除了啟發歌者對自身的學習，更為未來的教學工作做準備。

Human voice is the most natural instrument, and it cannot be touched directly with the body, which causes voice teachers to use different teaching methods from instruments in teaching. This course is based on Western Bel Canto, introducing the structure and movement of human voice instruments, the concepts of breathing, correct voice distribution, co-fishing methods, voice division, and various subjects that may be encountered in voice teaching. This course provides reasonable discussion, observation, and implementation, in addition to inspiring the singer's learning, it also prepares for future teaching work.

本課程將介紹西方美聲唱法的發展，探索科學上對人聲樂器的研究，來幫助聲樂老師、合唱指揮認識人聲樂器，並藉著研究、討論幾百年來西方美聲大師的教學方法，做為啟發歌者深思的工具，為將來的教學工作做準備。

This course will introduce the development of Western beautiful singing methods, explore scientific research on human music instruments, and help music teachers and chorus guides to understand human music instruments. Through research and discussion of the teaching methods of Western beautiful singing teachers over the past few hundred years, it is used as a tool for singers to think deeply and prepare for the teaching work that will come.
