Joan La Barbara
Joan La Barbara (born June 8, 1947 in Philadelphia, PA) is an American vocalist and composer known for her explorations of non-conventional or “extended” vocal techniques. Considered to be a vocal virtuoso in the field of contemporary music,〔Pool, Jeannie G. (Jan., 1979). ("America's Women Composers: Up from the Footnotes" ), p.35, ''Music Educators Journal'', Vol. 65, No. 5., pp. 28-41. "Joan La Bar-()bara, a major innovator in her use of voice in both live and taped electronic works."〕 she is credited with advancing a new vocabulary of vocal sounds including trills, whispers, cries, sighs, inhaled tones, and multiphonics (singing two or more pitches simultaneously).
==Biography==
An influential figure in experimental music, La Barbara is a classically trained singer who studied with soprano Helen Boatwright at Syracuse University and contralto Marion Freschl at the Juilliard School in New York.〔Sadie, Julie Ann & Samuel, Rhian. ''The Norton/Grove Dictionary of Women Composers, '', The Macmillan Press Limited, 1995, p. 259.〕
Joan La Barbara’s early creative work (early to mid 1970s) focuses on experimentation and investigation of vocal sound as raw sonic material including works that explore varied timbres on a single pitch, circular breathing techniques inspired by horn players, and multiphonic or choral singing. In the mid 1970s, she began creating more structured compositional works, some of which include electronics and layered voice sounds.
She has accumulated a large repertoire of vocal works by 20th and 21st century music masters, including many pieces composed especially for her voice.〔Goldsmith, Kenneth. ''Joan La Barbara: Composer as Performer'' from “Don’t Quit Your Day Job”, New Music Box/American Music Center, 2000.〕 She has performed and recorded works by composers including John Cage, Robert Ashley, Morton Feldman, Philip Glass, Larry Austin, Peter Gordon, Alvin Lucier, and her husband Morton Subotnick, and has collaborated with choreographer Merce Cunningham, and poet Kenneth Goldsmith.
