Bel Canto Masters Study Series Preparing for Publication of First Installment

The Bel Canto Masters Study Series is preparing to publish their first installment, Giovanni Batistta Lamperti's rare treatise The Technics of Bel Canto first published in 1905 as Die Technik des Bel Canto.

This treatise is unique in the fact that it comes very late in the pedagogical tradition of bel canto and represents a more modern view of the practice adapting to meet the demands of Wagnerian and Verdian music while still staying true to the "old Italian school."

The Technics of Bel Canto is edited and annotated by Gregory Blankenbehler, author of Singing Lessons for Little Singers. The Bel Canto Masters Study Series is a project of Pitch Perfect Publishing.
