Abstract
Kinematic behavior of the respiratory apparatus was studied during speaking and singing in four female subjects, all classical singers. Results revealed that respiratory events were similar to those observed previously for male classical singers. Findings suggest that respiratory function in classical singing is not sex-related in its kinematic manifestations.
